Building a J2ME sliding menu with text and images(part-1)

     

This example will show, how to create an image icon to perform the next action or next image from the list every time it's been clicked. So if you want to go from one icon to another icon by the nice sliding effect, you have to run the given example. For developing this application we have inherit canvass class and implement Runnable Interface. The Runnable interface is called from java.lang package and this interface has only one methods which is called: run() method. The function to run the application is as follows which is used in this application:

public void run(){   try{   while(true){   repaint();   synchronized(this){   wait(100L);   }   }   }catch(Exception e){   e.printStackTrace();   }   }

And the following image is created in this application is as follows:

image[0] = Image.createImage("/bollywood-height.png"); image[1] = Image.createImage("/212229_1193669628.png"); image[2] = Image.createImage("/95936_50.png"); image[3] = Image.createImage("/shreya.png"); image[4] = Image.createImage("/Aishw.png"); image[5] = Image.createImage("/karishma.png"); image[6] = Image.createImage("/tmb_jiahkhannishabd.png"); image[7] = Image.createImage("/amisha.png"); image[8] = Image.createImage("/shilpashetty.png"); image[9] = Image.createImage("/priti.png");

The Sample of Application is as follows:
