jewl help

[itgetsharder10]

m trying to create an applet using jewl. i keep getting the error message: cannot find symbol-mothod setupGUI(jewl.frame). a frame is a container but i dont know how to solve this as im obviously doing something wrong. any help would be appreciated, thank you.

import jewl.*;

 *  and buttons.

public class Calculator extends Applet {
    Frame frame;
    Font font;
    IntegerField value;
    
    public void setupGUI(Container c){
    Font font = new Font("Monospaced",Font.BOLD,14);
    IntegerField value = new IntegerField (getPanel(), 10, 10, -20, 25);
    value.setFont(font);
    value.setAlignment(TextControl.RIGHT);
    //
    //  Create the buttons (using a loop to avoid repetition)
    //
    String buttons = "789+456-123*C0=/";
    for (int i = 0; i < buttons.length(); i++) {
      int x = (i % 4) * 60 + 10;
      int y = (i / 4) * 50 + 45;
      Button b = new Button (getPanel(), x, y, 50, 40,
                             "" + buttons.charAt(i),
                             buttons.charAt(i));
      b.setFont(font);

hi
The error is due to the declaration:-

Frame frame = new Frame (260, 275, "JEWL Calculator", 'Q');
Applet d = new Calculator();
d.setupGUI(frame);

the object "frame" here does not belong to java.awt package but to "jewl" package.
d.setupGUI(frame) :- This is being looked up in the class jewl.Applet, but the only methods present in jewl.Applet are :-
private jewl.AppletPanel panel;
public jewl Applet;
public final AppletPanel getPanel();
public abstract void createGUI();
public abstract void handleCommand(char arg);
pubic void init();

Hence, the method that you are trying to call (d.setupGUI) is not at all there, and your code is trying to use it.
Also

a frame is a container

But both the container and frame have been overridden in the jewl's jar file. You may check the contents of the jar file to verify the same.
