dispalying the values through labels
Could you please help me sort the problem out ?
I try to input the numbers into text box and display them in the output labels.
The program compiles but it does calculate the values. It does not give the error message, either.
Here is the code below:
// Capture actions
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent event)
{
// If 'Convert Tempurature' button pushed perform action
String action = event.getActionCommand();//detect mouse event
if ( action.equals( "Convert Temperature" ) ){
int selectedTempIndex = cboTemps.getSelectedIndex();
//String selectedTempType = (String)cboTemps.getSelectedItem();
try {
String xStr = xInput.getText();
double x = Double.parseDouble(xStr);
}
catch (NumberFormatException e) {
// The string xStr is not a legal number.
lblFahrenheit.setText(" Illegal data");
return;
}
// Calculate Base Tempurature
switch( selectedTempIndex ){
case 0:
fahr = (1.8 * x) + 32;
//lblFahrenheit.Text = "fahr";
lbl1.setText("Fahrenheit conversion = " + (fahr));
case 1:
cel = x - 276.16;
//lblCelsius.Text = cel;
lbl2.setText("Celsius conversion = " + (cel));
case 2:
kelv = x + 273.16;
//lblKelvin.Text = kelv;
lbl3.setText("Kelvin conversion = " + (kelv));
case 3:
rank = 1.8 * x;
//lblRankine.Text = rank;
lbl4.setText("Rankine conversion = " + (rank));
case 4:
reaum = 0.8 * x;
//lblReaumer.Text = reaum;
lbl5.setText("Reaumer conversion = " + (reaum));
}
}
}

I have set up the tabels properly. The message is only displayed when the sring is entered. It seems that the button does not do any calculations.
Here is the code below.
/*
In this applet, the user can type one number. The
user can click on button labled Convert Temperature, and / to perform
basic arithmetic operations on the numbers. When the user
clicks on a button the answer is displayed. The applet
should be about 400 by 300 pixels.
