Re: Random Shape Generator
The code compiles for me. Make sure the Draw class has been compiled with the new source. Delete the Draw.class file to make sure.still get the same errors
The default: case is still missing from the switch statement. You need it to print a message when its called.
If you don't understand my answer, don't ignore it, ask a question.
Re: Random Shape Generator
So you're able to see the shapes generate? The code compiles for me as well but I only get an orange window.
Re: Random Shape Generator
Is the paintComponent() method being executed?I only get an orange window.
Did you add the default: case?

Re: Random Shape Generator
I cannot see why the paintComponent is not being executed. The switch...case is inside this method. Not sure what the default case should be? I have the three different shapes that need to be drawn. Still get the orange window with a message added to the below code:
public static int chooseShape(); int theShape = 1 + gen.nextInt(3); System.out.printf("Shape value returned is %d\n", theShape); return theShape;

Thank you Norm for your help all day. Been a long day. I will continue tomorrow after traveling most of the day to get home. Thanks again. I do appreciate it! Have a great holiday weekend.
Re: Random Shape Generator
How do you know if it is or not? Do you have a println statement in it that prints a message when it is called?I cannot see why the paintComponent is not being executed.
What color is the Draw panel supposed to be? I see that the code sets the JPanel: panel to orange.
Where does it set the Draw panel?
