Simkin XML Demonstration
This page shows an example of how Simkin can be used to script Java through XML files.
(The Applet is quite large because it includes the JavaSoft XML classes, Simkin itself is about 50k)
Below is an applet which has a field containing an XML document. The document describes the layout and behaviour of a simple dialog box.
The format allows the definition of the following controls
- panel - a Java panel
- static - a Java label
- edit - a Java textfield
- button - a Java button
The
Java object exposes the followed functions to the Simkin script:
- msgBox(a) - shows a message box
- close() - closes the dialog
- setFocus(n) - sets focus to the named control
- getText(n) - retrieves the text in the named text control
Press "Run the script" button to see the dialog appear:
