Thread: Image class in JAVA

I am new in programming word. I am learning JAVA programming language. I want to know about the Image class in JAVA and also know what are the properties and methods of the Image class. I have referred lots of books but none of them worked out. If you are having any suggestions then reply me. It can helpful to me.

I suggest you to refer following example of Image class', which will give you something idea about the use of this class:

Code:

import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
java.awt.Image
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;
public class ImageDM {
  public static void main(String[] arhhgs) {
    final Display display = new Display();
    final Shell shell1 = new Shell(display);
    shell1.setText("Canvas Example");
    shell1.setLayout(new FillLayout());
    Canvas canvas1 = new Canvas(shell, SWT.NONE);
    canvas1.addPaintListener(new PaintListener() {
      public void paintControl(PaintEvent e) {
        Image image = null;
        try {
          image = new Image(display, ImageLoadFromClassStream.class.getResourceAsStream("test.gif"));
          } catch (Exception e1) {
               e1.printStackTrace();
        }
        e.gc.drawImage(image, 25, 5);
        }image.dispose();
}

Refer following methods of Image class, which is helpful for u:

1.getWidth(ImageObserver ImgObserver)
2.getScaledInstance(int width1, int height1, int hints1)
3.getProperty(String strg, ImageObserver ImgObserver)
4.getGraphics()
5.getHeight(ImageObserver ImgObserver)
