CSE143 Notes for Friday, 5/6/11

We discussed the upcoming midterm. Then I discussed an optional example that involves inheritance to define a Graphical User Interface using the AWT library. Because it was an optional example, I will not provide detailed notes about it. The code is included under the calendar.

It is unfortunate that we don't have more time to explore using inheritance with frameworks like Java's AWT and Swing libraries. In spring of 2007 I taught a course CSE190L that explored this in great detail. The course web page has lecture notes and assignments in case you want to pursue this on your own. I also highly recommend the textbook we used, Core Java.
