Question

when i play my game i allow the user to click the buttons which then sets a o or an x as the label and then each button becomes in active as to not allow the user to clik it again and again

however when i get to 9 goes and its a draw a message box pops up and says draw but i cant seem to get the buttons to restore themselves to the original state to allow for a new round

what could you suggest

edit:

i have no idea why i didnt create a loop to do this cheers guys i will try this

Answer 1

This is of course hard when you didn’t show us any code, what did you try that didn’t work?

I would think a plain old loop should do the trick.

JButton buttons[];  for(JButton b : buttons) {   b.setText('');   b.setEnabled(true); } 

I hope that is the proper looping syntax, it’s been a while since I worked in Java.
