CSE 1030 A, Summer 2013

Your Task

If you are working in Eclipse, it is recommended that you create a new project to organize your code for this assignment. To do so, select File > New > Java Project and give it a name (e.g., "1030_A2").

Develop a GUI-based application to perform unit conversions. Your application should follow the Model-View-Controller (MVC) design pattern presented in lecture.

The APIs and partially implemented code for each required class are available as follows:

• UnitConvApp (code)
• UnitConvModel (API) (code)
• UnitConvView (API) (code)
• UnitConvController (API) (code)

Here are some screenshots depicting the desired layout and functionality:

Here are some screenshots depicting the corresponding desired saved output. The output is simply plain text saved to a file (note the different spacing between units):

You may use the following command to generate the Javadoc for your code:

javadoc -tag pre.:a:"Precondition: " UnitConv*.java

Using the wildcard '*' will include any file that starts with "UnitConv" and ends with ".java".

Submitting Your Work

Submit your work using the following command:

submit 1030 Asgn2 UnitConv*.java

Using the wildcard '*' will include any file that starts with "UnitConv" and ends with ".java".

Important

• Use the code for the CalcMVC2 application (available on course website) as a guide.
• Attempts to convert invalid input (e.g., letters) should result in the result "NaN".
• Use GridLayout to arrange the components in the JFrame.
• Use a width of 20 characters for the JTextField objects.
• The Unicode escape sequence for the degrees character is \u00B0.
