Wednesday Post 6

1)  Today I made the progress bar, which proved to have its problems with the scaling. I also created a bitmap font class to create and display scalable bitmap fonts.

2)  Next week I'm going to finish up the HUD, then I'll go on to getting joystick input.

3)  Here is the bitmap font code :

package seniorproj;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.awt.image.*;
import java.awt.*;

public class BitmapFont {

    private HashMap img_list;
    private int cell_size;

    public BitmapFont(int size, Color c){
        img_list=new HashMap();
        cell_size=size;
        //numbers
        for(int xx=48;xx<=57;xx++){
            BufferedImage b = new BufferedImage(size,size*2,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
            Graphics2D g2 = b.createGraphics();
            g2.setFont(new Font("Arial",0,size));
            g2.setPaint(c);
            g2.drawString(Character.toString((char)xx),size/2,size);
            img_list.put(Character.toString((char)xx),b);
        }
        //uppercase
        for(int xx=65;xx<=90;xx++){
            BufferedImage b = new BufferedImage(size,size*2,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
            Graphics2D g2 = b.createGraphics();
            g2.setFont(new Font("Arial",0,size));
            g2.setPaint(c);
            g2.drawString(Character.toString((char)xx),size/2,size);
            img_list.put(Character.toString((char)xx),b);
        }
        //lowercase
        for(int xx=97;xx<=122;xx++){
            BufferedImage b = new BufferedImage(size,size*2,BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_ARGB);
            Graphics2D g2 = b.createGraphics();
            g2.setFont(new Font("Arial",0,size));
            g2.setPaint(c);
            g2.drawString(Character.toString((char)xx),size/2,size);
            img_list.put(Character.toString((char)xx),b);
        }


    }

    public void render_string(Graphics2D g2,int x, int y, String str, float rw, float rh){
        for(int xx=0;xx
