You don't need a book, there are numerous online tutorials. Start by reading this article: http://www.java-gaming.org/topics/how-do-i-start-java-game-development/27156/view.html

I've been following the Xbox One since the live presentation on Tuesday and I was also not impressed. Also the almost-always online connection with the temporary allowed offline gameplay, the murdering of the used game market (games are now tied to your account and you have to pay a fee to use on another account), the lack of focus on games but TV TV TV sports sports SPAAWWTS TV TV, etc....

I just noticed: you never listed the full exception. Please print the full exception you see when you do exc.printStackTrace().

Please do not bump your own threads.

Can you show us how you initialize Frame? Nothing in this code looks wrong.
Also, it is best to call exc.printStackTrace() instead of those two printlns in your code.

You can act as an individual. You should be able to follow the steps easily to publish your app.

What!? Nooooooooo

For that online book, I ported the C++ code to Java here.

Then you should just rely on getClass().getClassLoader().getResource<AsStream>(String). That's the best option as it loads relative to the root of the JAR. If you want to load relative to the Class returned by getClass(), then drop the "getClassLoader()" call to make it getClass().getResource<AsStream>(String).

Note the <AsStream> denotes that it's optional as there are 2 methods: getResource(String) which returns URL and getResourceAsStream(String) which returns an InputStream.

~ == the home directory

@Sammidysam
With much fiddling, I could never reproduce that quirk. I was always given the correct current directory of the program in Ubuntu.

Being perpetually curious.... what was the problem?

This is why I have literally stopped reading threads anymore unless the title is interesting...

I feel left out

Yup:

Images are broken.

Images are broken.

Images are broken.

I disagree, that's a terrible feature. I don't want to click on a thread only to have clicked the wrong one due to the whole list shifting down.

I've tried both, DejaVu Sans Mono wins hands down for me

Woohoo! Glad I could help a whole year later

High five! o/

The competition will start at 10PM eastern time on Friday for me. I have work all night Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Nope: no time for this competition

Can I just jump in with my confusion as to why booleans are necessary in the first place? Can't you just store the number of the cup that is filled in a simple integer variable....?

In either case, this thread is hilarious

The daemon thread forces the system to use the high precision timer. This will cause sleep(int) to be more accurate

I dropped my phone in a puddle......for 20 minutes........ Put in rice overnight and boom, it was magically working the next morning.

Well.....err.....since everything else has been covered, I'll just drop in and say hi!

Also, here is an earlier post of mine that explains Passive vs. Active rendering.

DO NOT TURN IT ON AGAIN. That could fry the chips if there is still liquid in inside.

I know this works with phones but it should work with most electronics: put it in uncooked rice and leave it overnight.

In Eclipse: Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Code Style -> Formatter -> Edit -> Line Wrapping. There, I set everything to "Do not wrap" and set other settings. You can also customize the formatter to however you like.To save, you have to change the name on the top.

In IDEA: File -> Settings -> Code Style -> Java -> Wrapping and Braces. Again, play around

Yup AP exams.....and I'm taking 5! They are spread out over 2 weeks, with 2 exams on the same day

I have exams coming up in early May so no way for me
