I'm trying to get the user to input an integer into the textfield. The try catch block should handle the exception when the user enters a non-integer. A message dialog should appear, telling the user that they should input something else but I can't seem to get it to do so.
class ButtonListener implements ActionListener
{
public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent event)
{
try
{
String r = radiusField.getText ();
int radius = Integer.parseInt (r);
double area = Math.PI * radius * radius;
areaArea.setText ("" + area);
}
catch (InputMismatchException ex)
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog (null, "Error in number format: Reenter the number");
radiusField.setText ("");
areaArea.setText ("");
}
}
}
Use NumberFormatException
instead of InputMismatchException
:
catch (NumberFormatException ex) {
/* ... */
}
