make simple quiz for fun. created in java swing. There are two panels admin panel who is able to see the result and also make quiz. Second is client-panel, where the exam is conducted.
- Java swing
- MySQL database
- Developed in Eclipse IDE
Windows user : To simply use this application just dubble click on 'CLIENT_RUNNER.jar' to work as a client or dubble click on 'SERVER_RUNNER.jar' to work as an admin both are located on their corresponding folders.
Linux user :open terminal -> locate 'Quiz-Client' to work as a client and run the following command
java -jar 'CLIENT_RUNNER.jar'or locate 'Quiz_Server' to work as an admin and run the following command
java -jar 'SERVER_RUNNER.jar'
you also need to configur database.
Step-1 : After downloading, you have to keep this project on your workspace. Check your workspace from Eclipse OR you can also change your workspace by
file->SwitchWorkspace->Other
and choose your workspace.
Step-2 : Open eclipse IDE :
go to file->Open Project from file system-> locate your workspace and select the project(Quiz-Maker) folder -> click on open -> finish
this will open the both the client and server
Step-3 : Here you also need to fix the build path problem : To do that
right click on Quiz-Client -> Build Path -> Configure Build Path -> under the Libraries tab -> Classpath -> click on mysql-connector-j-8.0.32.jar and Remove It because you need to re-add this in order to run your project
after removeing click on Classpath -> Add External jars -> locate jar file (Quiz-Maker/Quiz_Client/mysql-connector-j-8.0.32.jar) and ADD it
You need to step 3 again for Quiz-Server and the path where the jar is located is (Quiz-Maker/Quiz_Server/mysql-connector-j-8.0.32.jar). ------- the both jars are same, so you can mix them without any fear -------
Step-4 : After configuring build path you are able to run this application to run this, right click on project(Quiz_Server or Quiz_Client) -> Run As -> Java Application
Step-5 : Thanks for reading this.
To configure the database the passwords are :
For client ==> EXAM@CLIENT
For server ==> EXAM@SERVER
you need to have MySQL installed in your Computer

You need to configure both Client and Admin with database
