Swing Components in Default Processing Window_py5

py5

Thanks for trying; I should have known it wouldn’t work cross platform. The following should also run on Windows in addition to what you posted; it came from the JPype website but won’t run on a Mac.

import jpype
import jpype.imports

jpype.startJVM()
import java
import javax
from javax.swing import *

def createAndShowGUI():
    frame = JFrame("HelloWorldSwing")
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE)
    frame.setBounds(100, 100, 400, 400)
    label = JLabel("Hello World")
    frame.getContentPane().add(label)
    frame.pack()
    frame.setVisible(True)

# Start an event loop thread to handling gui events
@jpype.JImplements(java.lang.Runnable)
class Launch:
    @jpype.JOverride
    def run(self):
        createAndShowGUI()
javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(Launch())

As noted above, on Windows it can be run with just the EventDispatchThread:

import jpype
import jpype.imports

jpype.startJVM()
import java
import javax
from javax.swing import *

def createAndShowGUI():
    frame = JFrame("HelloWorldSwing")
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE)
    frame.setBounds(100, 100, 400, 400)
    label = JLabel("Hello World")
    frame.getContentPane().add(label)
    frame.pack()
    frame.setVisible(True)

javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(createAndShowGUI)

@GoToLoop Will this make it cross-platform? I think Mac would have to use PyObjc plugin for Thonny to get Cocoa framework; not sure.

import jpype
import jpype.imports

jpype.startJVM()
import java
import javax
import platform
from javax.swing import *
if(platform.system() == "Darwin"):
    from Cocoa import NSApp

def createAndShowGUI():
    frame = JFrame("HelloWorldSwing")
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE)
    label = JLabel("Hello World")
    frame.getContentPane().add(label)
    frame.pack()
    frame.setVisible(True)

javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(createAndShowGUI)
print(platform.system())
if(platform.system() == "Darwin"):    
    NSApp.run()
