i need help.. important..? please..

dear all,

i need to ask is i am building a main GUI that allows users to create a GUI themselves by adding objects and components from the menu at the top of the main GUI.. like frames and text areas..

But the important thing is.. when i am running the main GUI... can i add objects to it, cos it means i will be running a GUI and adding code to the GUI at the same time..

Is this possible? and yes how..

if not, then how do i implement it ?

thank u people..

Are you saying your making a program (GUI) that an end-user will change the compenets themselves? I think you mean your making an IDE or a Form Designer. You simply need to

create a "holding" class for all the GUI parts, then create a Properties editor that references all of the parts in the "holding" class. To display a part, just call it's relevent class,and other required parts.

what u need r beans. each object that u want to allow the user to add to the gui has to be a bean so that u can add it and edit its properties. take a look at the java tutorial on JavaBeans for an understanding of beans.
