Overview

For this project you will implement two classes MySortedLinkedList, and WeekActivities that support a weekly calendar implementation.  This calendar implementation allows users to schedule activities, and perform typical calendar activities. In addition, you will design a basic GUI for some of the functionality offered by the WeekActtivites class.

Objectives

This project will give you practice using linear data structures, the Java Collections Framework and basic GUI development..

Grading

• (70%) Tests
  • (30%) Public JUnit tests
  • (40%) Release JUnit tests
• (10%) Student Tests
• (15%) GUI
• (5%) Style

Code Distribution

The project's code distribution is available by checking out the project named Calendar. The code distribution provides you with the following:

• A package named calendar - In this package you will find shells for the classes named MySortedLinkedList, and WeekActivities. These are the classes you need to implement for this project.  In the calendar package you will also find the following support classes and enumerated types: Activity, ActivityComparator, Date, Day, and Time. You will use these classes and enumerated types during the implementation of the calendar application; you should not modify any of them.
• A package named tests - Includes the public tests (PublicTests.java) and a shell for a class (StudentTests.java) that you must complete with your own tests.
• PublicTests.java - This class represents the set of JUnit public tests. Some of the tests rely on expected results that can be found in text files beginning with a "pub" prefix. 
• StudentTests.java - This class represents the tests you must provide for your code.
• A package named gui - This is where you will place the classes representing your gui.

Specifications

For this project you will implement the classes MySortedLinkedList and WeekActivities that support a weekly calendar implementation. In addition, you will design/implement a basic GUI for some of the functionality offered by the WeekActivities class. The calendar application documentation can be found in the project's javadoc documentation. 

You get to decide how your GUI looks like and how it interacts with the WeekActivities class. When it comes to the GUI keep the following in mind:

• Your GUI must use at least one of the following elements: JFrame, JButton, JTextField.
• You do not need to implement a fancy/complex/beautiful GUI to get full credit.
• Your GUI must provide access to the functionality associated with the following WeekActivities methods: isTimePeriodAvailable, addActivity, getActivity, removeActivity, and anyActivitiesOnDay. If you want to provide access to all the functionality associated with WeekActivities that is fine, but you will not get extra credit. You get to decide how to provide access to the WeekActivities functionality through the GUI (this is your opportunity to create and design!)
• You may not use System.out.println.
• Feel free to use JOptionPane class methods.
• All your GUI code must be located in the gui package. Make sure you define a class name CalendarGUI that we can use to run the GUI application.

Requirements

• The MySortedLinkedList class may not be implemented using the Java API ArrayList class or the Java API LinkedList class.
• You may not add any classes that support the implementation of the classes MySortedLinkedList or WeekActivities. Notice that for the development of the GUI you can create as many classes as you understand are necessary.
• Verify that your project passes the submit server tests (https://submit.cs.umd.edu/)
• See StudentTests.html for information regarding the implementation of student tests.
• You must attempt to submit your project immediately after checking out the project (even if you have not implemented any methods). This will allow you to verify that the submission process is working as expected.
• You should submit your project often. This will keep versions of your project in the submit server that are easy to retrieve (you can also get previous versions from your CVS repository). If your computer crashes or you experience any other problem you will have a permanent backup in the submit server.
• You have five (not three) tokens for this project in the submit server.
• Style
  • Good variable names.
  • You must avoid code duplication by calling appropriate methods (rather than cutting and pasting code). You may define your own private utility methods to perform often repeated tasks.
  • Style as defined by the Eclipse Format Element option (Source → Format → Format Element) or as specified in Code Conventions for the JavaTM Programming Language (focus on the following sections: Indentation, Declarations, Statements, White Space, and Naming Conventions).
  • Although you should avoid source lines exceeding 80 characters, you will not be penalize if they are present in your code.

Honor Section Requirements

• You must implement the MyIterator<E> remove method.
• Your GUI must also use a JTable.

Suggestions on How to Start/Implement This Programming Assignment

• Look at the PublicTests.java file so you understand the expected functionality for the classes you must implement.
• Thorougly test your MySortedLinkedList class by writing the appropriate student tests.
• Do not wait until the last minute to start working on the project; there is plenty to do.

Submission

Submit your project using the Eclipse "Submit Project" option (available by right clicking on the project folder).

Academic Integrity
