Converting Java Applet to JFrame

8
Can anyone help me please? How do I convert these codes to launch from a JFrame instead of a Java Applet?



A simple program where the user can sketch curves and shapes in a
variety of colors on a variety of background colors. The user selects
a drawing color form a pop-up menu at the top of the
applet. If the user clicks "Set Background", the background
color is set to the current drawing color and the drawing
area is filled with that color. If the user clicks "Clear",
the drawing area is just filled with the current background color.

The user selects the shape to draw from another pop-up menu at the
top of the applet. The user can draw free-hand curves, straight
lines, and one of six different types of shapes.

The user's drawing is saved in an off-screen image, which is
used to refresh the screen when repainting. The picture is
lost if the applet changes size, however.

This file defines two classes, SimplePaint3,class, and
class, SimplePaint3$Display.class.

1.) Code tags code tags code tags code tags code tags code tags.
2.) You didn't really have to post all that code
3.) Go for it. You can paint on a Canvas, the constructor would do what's being in the init method e.t.c
