/*
* Since a Window is a Bin, it can only have one child Widget. That's
* probably not very useful in most cases. To take that one slot and
* turn it into many, we use a VBox, a Container that will stack its
* children vertically.
*/

/*
* Create a Label with some text describing the Button that will
* follow, then add it to the VBox.
*/

* Create our Button, with a nice explicit bit of text labelling it
* and what you're to do.
*/

x.add(b);
/*
* Now the magic part. Just sitting there, the Button won't do
* anything. You need to hook up a "signal handler" to deal with the
* 'clicked' signal. This is how we do it in java-gnome.
*
* Button.Clicked is a Java interface. You create an instance of it to
* do what you want when the callback happens, and then pass it to the
* Button's connect() method.
*
* The onClicked() method is what is required by the Button.Clicked
* interface. Most IDEs will prompt you asking if you want to "Add
* unimplemented methods?" You bet! And ta-da! You have exactly the
* signature you need to implement a 'clicked' signal handler.
*
* Since we declared b as final we can use it in the anonymous nested
* class (yet *another* reason that final is worth using). If the
* situation were otherwise, then the source parameter can be used to
* find out what Button was clicked.
*/
b.connect(new Button.Clicked() {
public void onClicked(Button source) {
System.out.println("I was clicked: " + b.getLabel());
}

/*
* Now we pack the VBox into our Window, set the Window's title, and
* invoke the command to realize everything onto the screen.
*/
w.add(x);
w.setTitle("Hello World");
w.showAll();
/*
* We would be be done except for one last detail. Closing a Window
* does not terminate the application. If that's what you want (and we
* do indeed want that here) then you need to hook up a handler to do
* something when the 'delete-event' signal is emitted.
*
* Again, the method here implements the interface.
*/
w.connect(new Window.DeleteEvent() {
public boolean onDeleteEvent(Widget source, Event event) {
Gtk.mainQuit();
return false;
}
});
/*
* Now we're ready to run the main loop. The signals we've hooked up
* handlers for above won't be emitted until the user does something,
* but no events will be processed until the main loop is running;
* that's where the signals will come from. This call blocks. You have
* finished setting things up and now it's up to your signal handlers
* to carry out the program's logic in response to the user's actions;
* the essence of event-driven programming.

Make a tests directory to hold the output.
Enter the command to compile the java code with java-gnome.
$ javac -classpath /usr/share/java/gtk-4.1.jar -d tests ExamplePressMe.java
Run it:
$ java -classpath /usr/share/java/gtk-4.1.jar:tests button.ExamplePressMe
Where /usr/share/java/gtk-4.1.jar is the installed gtk-4.1.jar.
