Swing, Concurrency
My take on the classic bouncing balls application. The balls are moved in their own thread and the update of the UI is triggered in regular intervals. The balls can pass through each other, they are only aware of the border, but not the limits of other balls.
- Main: starts the application
- Ball: the ball object
- SpeedParameter, DirectionParameter, LocationParameter: attributes of the ball object (it is a composite class)
- Direction: enum class to determine the balls direction on the X or Y axis
- Worker: thread that updates the balls location on the animation panel
- AnimationPanel: the panel that displays the balls and their movements
- Colors: provides a random way to set the colors of the balls
