CIV

I am trying to start a new project. This project is named the CIV project. Basically, all this project does is maintain a database and a list of coins. It is a small version of a book keeping diary. Perhaps a picture is worth a thousand words so the following is the CIV program that I have started to make.

As can be seen form the image above, the software will add the number of coins that is taken. So basically, for example, if I have with me 50 dollar worth of $2 coins, I can click the $2 button and take it out. I haven't implemented the buttons to take out the coins yet.  At the moment all I have done is create the GUI.

-- To update all the fields, I have decided that instead of updating one by one when I click the button, I create another method where it will update every field. I have stored values at the moment using integers. For example:

int stackTwoDollars =0;

int stackOneDollar =0;

For now, I will be happy with starting with zero just to make sure it works. Later on I plan to connect it to a database so that the values from the previous time that money was taken out can be saved.

 private void updateFields() {

        twoDollarsField.setText(""+stackTwoDollars);

        oneDollarField.setText(""+stackOneDollar);

        fiftyCentsField.setText(""+stackFiftyCents);

        twentyCentsField.setText(""+stackTwentyCents);

        tenCentsField.setText(""+stackTenCents);

        fiveCentsField.setText(""+stackFiveCents);

    }

The code above is used to update and refresh all the fields;
