How to get rid of the flicker that appears during my animation?

问题

I'm learning Java by making a small game in a JApplet. I got a little problem with my sprite's animation.

Here is the code :

this.sprite.setBounds(0,0,20,17);

this.sprite.setIcon(this.rangerDown);
for(int i = 0; i< 16;i++)
{
    this.sprite.setBounds(this.sprite.getX(), this.sprite.getY()+1, 20, 17);
    this.sprite.update(this.sprite.getGraphics());

    try{
        Thread.currentThread().sleep(100);
    }catch(InterruptedException e){
}

}

It left some flicker during the animation. Once the animation end, the flicker disappears, but it's kind of ugly... I guess there is some step I missed. I use this method because it gives the better result for now, but I would like to stay without AWT if possible, using Swing instead.

Any ideas how to get rid of the flicker?

Thanks for reading.

This is not a shadow. Its the border of your sprite. It just happens to be black and appears as a shadow. If you change the amount you shift your sprite (lets say by 50 pixels, not just 1) you will see what i mean.

To fix it what you need to do is to draw the background as well each time you update the location of your sprite. Although this will probably produce flickering.

The correct way to do it is to change the way you draw your objects. You need to override the paintComponent method of your panel and then simply call repaint each time you have updated the locations of your sprites.

EDIT:

See this code sample for basic usage. NOTE: This is NOT how you should write animation using Threads. I wrote that to show you what goes in the paintComponent method and wrote the animation Thread to show you that the "shadow" you mentioned is gone. NEVER have a non ending run loop in a thread :)

                        Thread.sleep(50);
                    } catch (InterruptedException e) {

    }

    @Override
    protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
        Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D)g.create();
        g2.setPaint(Color.white);
        g2.fillRect(0, 0, getWidth(), getHeight());
        g2.setPaint(Color.red);
        g2.fillOval(x-2, 50, 4, 4);
    }

}

The problem is double buffering.

In Applets: Double buffering is done almost automatically. Call repaint() instead of paint in your method.

In Swing, there are many ways to do it. I usually go for the BufferStrategy route. When you're initializing your frame, do this:

JFrame frame;
... code to init frame here
frame.createBufferStrategy(2);

Then in your draw methods:

Graphics g = getBufferStrategy().getDrawGraphics();
..code to do drawing here...
g.dispose();
getBufferStrategy().show();
