Java Graphics Redraw Behavior

Question

I have been looking for the cause of this behavior in my code for quite some time. I don’t want to dive too deep into the Swing API to understand why this is happening. I would appreciate any information on the causes of this problem.

This is a simplified version of the application that I am writing, problems arise when I click the button for the first time, the image will not be drawn on the panel, but when I click on it for the second time, the image is perfect. Any drawing done will work correctly, but the original paint problem annoys me a lot. Thanks for any help! :)

public class ImageTester {

public static void main(String[] args) {
    final JFrame window = new JFrame("Image Tester");
    final JPanel pane = new JPanel();
    JButton draw = new JButton("Draw");
    JButton paint = new JButton("Paint");

    Toolkit k = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit();
    final Image i = k.createImage("tester.jpg");
    //pane.getGraphics().drawImage(i, 22, 15, null);

    draw.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {

        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
            System.out.println(pane.getGraphics());
            pane.getGraphics().drawRect(5, 5, 15, 15);
            pane.getGraphics().drawImage(i, 15, 15, null);
            System.out.println("Performance");
        }
    });

    paint.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {

        }
    });

    pane.add(draw);
    pane.add(paint);
    window.add(pane);
    window.setVisible(true);
    window.setSize(new Dimension(400, 400));
    window.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}
}

Besides the advice of camickr ..

Toolkit.createImage(). ImageIO.read(URL/File/InputStream), MediaTracker.

    public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {

        super.paintComponent(g);
        g.drawRect(5, 5, 15, 15);
        g.drawImage(i, 15, 15, null);

Answer 2

getGraphics(). , Swing , .

paintComponent() JPanel ( JComponent), .

. .

Answer 3

createImage(), , , , . Toolkit.prepareImage() . , :

k.prepareImage(i, -1, -1, pane);
