Class de.weaut.sortDemo.SortApp extends java.awt.Panel implements Serializable

Serialized Fields

sortThread

java.lang.Thread sortThread

The sorting thread.

null, if no demo is running.

arr

int[] arr

The array to be sorted.

It will be provided in a length (>= 3) fitting the height of the Frame. The first setting will be shuffled. It will contain positive integers smaller than the Frame's width in pixels.

The concrete SortApp.algorithm has to sort it and must mark substantial steps by one of callback methods SortApp.pause(int, int) etc.

obItem

int obItem

Upper (last) action mark in the course of sorting.

It will be displayed as red marking line; -1 means no display / no mark.

untItem

int untItem

Lower (last) action mark in the course of sorting.

It will be displayed as blue marking line; -1 means no display / no mark.

algName

java.lang.String algName

The algorithm's name.

It will be made by using the application's first start parameter. That will be suffixed by "Algorithm". A class of type SortApp.SortAlgorithm so named will be looked up in the same package (de.weaut.demos) as single file or in the application's .jar-File.

algorithm

SortApp.SortAlgorithm algorithm

Sorting algorithm (or null).

hApp

int hApp

The frame's height.

Will actualised before re-shuffling.
Minimal height 50.

bApp

int bApp

The frame's width.

Will actualised before re-shuffling.
Minimal width 50.

lArr

int lArr

The length of the array to be sorted.

Will actualised before re-shuffling. If changed an new array SortApp.arr will be provided accordingly.

This length will be a function of SortApp.bApp, SortApp.hStrich and SortApp.hLcke just to fill the frame's height but never less than 3.
The implementors of sorting algorithms must not deal with shorter (or empty or null) arrays.

hStrich

int hStrich

Height of an element marker as horizontal line in pixels.

Allowed range: 2..15
Default: 4

hLcke

int hLcke

Height of the gap between element markers in pixels.

Allowed range: 1..6
Default: 3

lenPau

long lenPau

Pause in ms for algorithm step display.

default: 35

rand

java.util.Random rand

buffI

java.awt.image.BufferedImage buffI

buGr

java.awt.Graphics buGr

bgCol

java.awt.Color bgCol

Background colour.

default: a light gray

steps

int steps

The step counter.
