问题:

I am new to using cardlayout and I have a few questions on how to implement it. I first would like to know the best way to implement cardlayout so that I can switch from panel to panel. My main question is how to use buttons inside the constructors of my panels to switch from panel to panel. I just started working on this project today so you will see some code that is not finished or that does not make sense. I first tried to make all my classes to extend JFrame but that led to multiple unwanted windows. If I can get some sort of example on how to effectively use cardlayout and how to switch panels using the buttons within my other panel constructors. My attempts on using cardlayout only worked for buttons that I created in my gui class however that is not the result I want. Please help if you can and thanks in advance.

This is my main class.

public class controller{
    public static void main(String[] args){

        new Gui();


    }
}

This is my gui class.

import java.awt.CardLayout;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;

import javax.swing.Box;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JPasswordField;
import javax.swing.JTextField;

public class Gui extends JFrame{
    homePage home = new homePage();
    public JPanel loginPanel = new textEmailLog(), 
    registerPanel = new Register(),
    homePanel = new homePage(), viewPanel  = new emailView(),
    loadPanel = new loadEmail(), contentPanel = new JPanel(new CardLayout());
    CardLayout cardLayout = new CardLayout();


    public Gui(){
        super("Email Database Program");
        setSize(700,700);
        setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        contentPanel.setLayout(cardLayout);

        contentPanel.add(loginPanel, "Login");
        contentPanel.add(registerPanel, "Register");
        contentPanel.add(homePanel, "Home");
        contentPanel.add(viewPanel, "View");
        contentPanel.add(loadPanel, "Load");
        this.setContentPane(contentPanel);

        cardLayout.show(contentPanel, "Login");


        setVisible(true);


    }

        Login = new JTextField("", 15);
        JPasswordField Password = new JPasswordField("", 15);
        Password.setEchoChar('*');

        //login button that confirms username and password
        logBut = new JButton("Login");
        logBut.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){

            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                //needs regex checks prior to logging in 

                if(e.getSource() == logBut){
                    /* Change the panel to the homepage
                    if(Login.getText().equals() && Password.getText().equals()){

                    }
                */  
                    new homePage();
                }


            }
        });

        registerBut = new JButton("Register");

            }

        });

        //Box layout for organization of jcomponents
        Box verticalContainer = Box.createVerticalBox();
        Box horizontalContainer = Box.createHorizontalBox();
        Box mergerContainer = Box.createVerticalBox();


        //add to panel
        verticalContainer.add(Box.createVerticalStrut(300));//begin relative to the center
        verticalContainer.add(userLab);//Login label and text
        verticalContainer.add(Login);
        verticalContainer.add(Box.createVerticalStrut(5));
        verticalContainer.add(pwLab);//password label and text

        horizontalContainer.add(logBut);//login button

        //combines both the vertical and horizontal container
        mergerContainer.add(verticalContainer);
        mergerContainer.add(horizontalContainer);
        add(mergerContainer);

The short answer is don't. The reasons for this is you'll end having to expose the parent container and CardLayout to ALL your sub components, which not only exposes portions of your application to potential mistreatment, it tightly couples the navigation making it difficult to add/remove steps in the future...

A better solution would be to devise some kind of controller interface, which defines what each view could do (for example showHome, nextView, previousView), you would then pass an implementation of this interface to each view. Each view would then use this interface to request a change as the needed to.

The controller would know things like, the current view, the home view and how to move between certain views (next/previous) as required.
