These are some very simple examples of fiswidget applications, and a not so simple example. See the Getting Started section for more details.

• Hello1
  This is just about the tiniest fiswidget I could come up with. It pops up a box for the user to enter a string like world and then uses the UNIX echo command (not the shell command) to echo Hello world. Note: You will need to edit Hello1Run.java and enter the correct path name for echo on your system.

• Hello2
  Hello2 has added the following features to Hello1
  Hello2.java
  
  • The .fisproperties file is loaded, p1.loadProperties(), and the BROWSER and FISDOC_PATH keys are checked.
  • The HELP button is activated, activateHelpButton().
  • A line is added to the About box with addToAbout().
  • A spacer, newLine(), and checkbox, FisCheckBox() have been added to the GUI interface.
  Hello2Run.java
  
  • The status of the checkbox is examined, gui.cb1.isChecked().
  • The exit status of the FisRunner command is checked with run1.getExitValue().
  • If the checkbox is checked, an additional window is brought up, new HelloJ(text). This demonstrates the ability to invoke standard (non fiswidget) Java GUI applications from within a fiswidget.

• xfind
  Xfind is a small example of almost all the widgets.
  Instead of displaying "Hello World", it actually acts as a usefull utility.
  It provides a GUI wrapper for the Unix's FIND command.
  It has the following features
  xfind.java
  
  • The .fisproperties file is loaded, properties.loadFisProperties(FISPROPERTIES_SYSTEM_OR_USER), and the BROWSER and FISDOC_PATH keys are checked.
  • The HELP button is activated, activateHelpButton().
  • A line is added to the About box with addToAbout().
  • A spacer, newLine(), and checkbox, FisCheckBox() have been added to the GUI interface.
  • There are also check text fields, integer and float fields, combo boxes, list boxes, radio buttons, toggle buttons, browse buttons, advanced buttons, labels and more.
  xfindRun.java
  
  • The status of the checkboxes and switches are examined.
  • The exit status of the FisRunner command is checked with run1.getExitValue().
  • Depending on the switches different options are added to "find" command.
