Java Forum / General / August 2007splash component ...
Hello. How can I do splash component ? (a dialog that appears as a promo, before application starts). Thanks :) Eitan M schrieb: > Hello. > > How can I do splash component ? > (a dialog that appears as a promo, before application starts). > > Thanks :) have a look at java.awt.SplashScreen or use eclipse rcp Christian > Hello. > > How can I do splash component ? > (a dialog that appears as a promo, before application starts). > > Thanks :) I usually use a JWindow with a single Image drawn on it that is displayed in a separate thread while the main JFrame loads. Just before the JFrame's setVisible() method is called, it closes the JWindow. I actually got the idea from the SwingSet2 demo in Sun's JDK.

Besides the other suggestions (though I'd swap an AWT based splash, for the second reply's JWindow), you might also consider using web start to launch the app. Web start not only offers a splash screen, but also desktop icons and and menu items.

In Java 1.6+ you can use: #java -splash:<imagepath> ... piotr Is splash always the first window on screen, or can it be a window i.e with "waiting for connection ..." caption ? Thanks :) >Is splash always the first window on screen, By definition, pretty much. Although.. >or can it be a window i.e with "waiting for connection ..." caption ? .."Wait" dialogs might have an image, but that does not really make them a 'splash' screen. Splash screens are specialized and tricky in that they must appear on-screen very fast, without needing a lot of classes from the JVM to load. If you need to show an image in (for example) a JDialog or (borderless) JWindow during run-time, that can be achieved easier than most of the methods outlined above.
