«« Internationalization in struts application

# 1

look at the Java2D demo that comes with the JDK

it has lots of source code and just about everything you'll need to do in Tetris (technology wise) is in there, except the game logic.

when you're ready to move into 3D and heavier apps, try this book:

Practical Java Game Programming

I have made blocks which r there in tetris. I m having a problem in collision detection..i.e. knowing if an image(a block in tetris) exists in a particular rectangular region..how to detect this?

not to be rude, but this is very basic game programming stuff, you should probably grab a book (or article) that discusses collision detection in 2D, google that and check back with us

Hello,You can use contains(....) method of java.awt.Rectangle class ( http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/awt/Rectangle.html). You will prbably need to represent your blocks as rectangles or corner points and test with the contains(....) methods.
