Point of Sales System

This application was developed in IntelliJ. It will not work because the database it needs is not on your comuter. Still feel free to look through the code.

At Penn State the class IST 261(App. Dev. Studio) students are tasked with blinding a simple GUI Java application. I chose to go with a point of sales system. This example is for a make-believe burger restaurant called Burger Shop. The system has a login that would be for each location. All orders are recorded in a MySQL database so they can be accessed later for analysis or for issuing refunds.

The SQL connection object in this project has a timmer build in to check if the connection is still open. This was essentially important as the server I was working will didn’t want to keep connections open for much longer than 5 seconds. If there was a query and the connection was lost then it automaticly reconnected.
