Swing JFrameComponents With Default AWTCanvas

[svan]

The following code allows the use of Swing JFrame components with the default AWT canvas. This combination allows us to use the normal draw() function for drawing with Processing calls instead of painting into a JPanel or other Swing component. A JColor needs to be converted to int r,g,b values in order to be used with Processing calls.

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;

javax.swing.JFrame frame;
java.awt.Canvas canvas;

int _wndW = 700;
int _wndH = 600;

int diameter = 200;
int r = 255;
int g = 0;
int b = 0;

void slider(int x, int y, int w, int h, int min, int max, int value) {
  JSlider slider = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL, min, max, value);
  slider.setBounds(x, y, w, h);
  slider.setToolTipText("set diameter");
  frame.add(slider);
  // **** Action **** //
  slider.addChangeListener(new ChangeListener() {
    void stateChanged(ChangeEvent changeEvent) {
      diameter = slider.getValue();
    }
  }
  );
}

void colorBtn(int x, int y, int w, int h) {
  JButton colorBtn = new JButton("Color");
  colorBtn.setBounds(x, y, w, h);
  frame.add(colorBtn);
  // **** Action **** //
  colorBtn.addActionListener( new ActionListener() {
    void actionPerformed(ActionEvent actionEvent) {
     Color dotColor = JColorChooser.showDialog(null, "Choose color", Color.RED);
      r = dotColor.getRed();
      g = dotColor.getGreen();
      b = dotColor.getBlue();
    }
  }
  );
}

void buildWnd() {
  slider(150, 10, 300, 30, 5, 490, 200);
  colorBtn(480, 10, 80, 30);
}

void setup() {
  size(_wndW, _wndH);
  surface.setTitle("Swing JFrame Components with Default AWT Canvas");
  frame = (javax.swing.JFrame) ((processing.awt.PSurfaceAWT.SmoothCanvas) surface.getNative()).getFrame();
  canvas = (processing.awt.PSurfaceAWT.SmoothCanvas) ((processing.awt.PSurfaceAWT)surface).getNative();
  frame.setBounds(600, 150, _wndW, _wndH); // Makes it possible to add swing components
  canvas.setBounds(0, 60, _wndW, _wndH-60); // Default canvas used for draw()
  javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
    public void run() {
      buildWnd(); // Builds components on EventDispatchThread
    }
  }
  );
}

void draw() {
  background(209);
  fill(color(r, g, b));
  stroke(0);
  strokeWeight(4.0);
  circle(350, 255, diameter);
}
