Attributes

Our goal is to create a Window class that can be used to create many different window objects from the same blueprint.

public class Window {

    // Attributes

    // Constructors

    // Methods
}

Consider the window shown below:

What attributes describe this window? Here are some possibilities:

• x-position
• y-position
• width
• height
• interior color
• frame color
• line thickness
• number of panels

If we want to add these attributes to our Window class, we need to declare them as variables that can store the right kind of information. Here are the data types you will need for now. See Lesson 3 for a complete list.

Let's use these data types to add some attributes to our Window class.

public class Window {

    // Attributes
    int xPos;
    int yPos;
    int width;
    int height;
    Color frameColor;
    Color interiorColor;

    // Constructors

    // Methods
}
