java - 具有键绑定(bind)的线程

Question

我是 Java 图形和线程的新手，我正在尝试制作游戏(特别是 Pong)。这个想法是两个人可以在同一个键盘上演奏(即有两个拨片通过不同的键控制)。目前，两位玩家不能同时移动他们的 Racket 。

有解决办法吗？单独的线程是答案吗？

如果可能的话，我希望桨叶能够同时移动(至少看起来是这样)。

更新:似乎使用了 Set<Integer>存储按下的键是最好的选择。我已经做到了(并且有效)，但我想知道是否有任何代码不在事件调度线程 (EDT) 上，以及我是否需要使用 SwingUtilities.invokeLater(); .这是必要的代码:

private Set<Integer> keysDown = Collections.synchronizedSet(new HashSet<Integer>());

public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) 
{
    keysDown.add(e.getKeyCode());
}

public void keyReleased(KeyEvent e) 
{    
    keysDown.remove(e.getKeyCode());
}

public void updatePaddlePositions()
{
    if (keysDown.contains(KeyEvent.VK_W)) 
        paddleOne.move(-PADDLE_MOVE_INCREMENT);

    if (keysDown.contains(KeyEvent.VK_S))
        paddleOne.move(PADDLE_MOVE_INCREMENT);

    if (keysDown.contains(KeyEvent.VK_UP))
        paddleTwo.move(-PADDLE_MOVE_INCREMENT);

    if (keysDown.contains(KeyEvent.VK_DOWN))
        paddleTwo.move(PADDLE_MOVE_INCREMENT);

    try {
        Thread.sleep(DELAY);
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {
        System.out.println("You Interrupted the game!");
    }

    canvas.repaint();
}

这是 paintComponent canvas 的方法对象:

public void paintComponent(Graphics g) 
{
    super.paintComponent(g);
    paddleOne.paint(g);
    paddleTwo.paint(g);
    updatePaddlePositions(); // Does this need to be SwingUtilities.invokeLater(this)?
                             // And should updatePaddlePositions() be run() as a result?
}

这是 paint paddleOne 的方法和 paddleTwo对象:

    public void paint(Graphics g)
    {
        g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
        g.fillRect(x, y, PADDLE_WIDTH, PADDLE_HEIGHT);
    }

如果您觉得有什么“不好”的地方，请随时对我的设计发表评论。最后，Collections.synchronizedSet(new HashSet<Integer>()) 是什么？意思/做？

更新#2:似乎键绑定(bind)是可行的方法(尽管在这种情况下它们需要更多代码)。什么使键绑定(bind)更好？是不是他们独立于其他一切工作(并且不需要像关键听众那样的窗口焦点)？

此外，我了解到 HashSet<Integer>只是 Set<Integer> 的一个子类，但是 Collections.synchronizedSet(...) 的目的是什么？ ？我假设它与线程有关，但我不知道为什么这个程序需要它(如果有的话)。

Answer 1

首先，使用 Swing KeyBinding 另外我认为没有真正需要多线程，除非您希望您的游戏是多线程的。

为了澄清这个问题，您需要能够让 2 名玩家按下不同的键吗？

如果是:

解决方案:

只需使用booleans 来标记一个键是否被按下，你当然必须在释放键时重置该标记。

在您的游戏逻辑中，您将检查 boolean 值的状态并采取适当的行动。

请看我下面的例子(两个桨都可以使用 W 和 S 以及 UP 和 DOWN 键独立移动):

public class GameLogic {

    public GameLogic() {
        initComponents();
    }

    private void initComponents() {
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("Game Test");
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        //create the gamepanel
        final GamePanel gp = new GamePanel(600, 500);

        //create panel to hold buttons to start pause and stop the game
        JPanel buttonPanel = new JPanel();
        buttonPanel.setOpaque(false);

        final JButton startButton = new JButton("Start");
        final JButton pauseButton = new JButton("Pause");
        final JButton stopButton = new JButton("Stop");

        pauseButton.setEnabled(false);
        stopButton.setEnabled(false);

        //add listeners to buttons (most of the actions - excuse the pun - takes palce here :)
        startButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
            @Override
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
                //clear enitites currently in array
                gp.clearEntities();


                ArrayList<BufferedImage> ballEntityImages = new ArrayList<>();
                ArrayList<Long> ballEntityTimings = new ArrayList<>();

                ballEntityTimings.add(500l);

                Entity ballEntity = new Entity(gp.getWidth() / 2, gp.getHeight() / 2, ballEntityImages, ballEntityTimings);
                ballEntity.RIGHT = true;

                //create images for entities
                ArrayList<BufferedImage> advEntityImages = new ArrayList<>();

                advEntityImages.add(createColouredImage("orange", 10, 100, false));
                advEntityTimings.add(500l);

                ArrayList<BufferedImage> entityImages = new ArrayList<>();
                ArrayList<Long> entityTimings = new ArrayList<>();
                entityImages.add(createColouredImage("red", 10, 100, false));
                entityTimings.add(500l);//as its the only image it doesnt really matter what time we put we could use 0l
                //entityImages.add(createColouredImage("magenta", 100, 100));
