This is just a test program..
What i want to do is that when the user clicks Exit in the menu bar, a string or a label will appear in panel 2...but it doesn't work...what is wrong with my code?
Code:import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JPanel; import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.event.ActionListener; import java.awt.event.ActionEvent; import javax.swing.JMenu; import javax.swing.JMenuItem; import javax.swing.JMenuBar; import javax.swing.JLabel; public class test2 extends JFrame{ private static final int WIDTH=300; private static final int HEIGHT=200; private JPanel p1=new JPanel(); private JPanel p2=new JPanel(); public test2(){ super(); setSize(WIDTH,HEIGHT); setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); setLayout(new BorderLayout()); JLabel l=new JLabel("Label 1"); p1.add(l); JMenuItem exit=new JMenuItem("Exit"); exit.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){ public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){ //System.exit(0); JLabel l2=new JLabel("Exit clicked"); p2.add(l2); } }); add(p1, BorderLayout.NORTH); add(p2, BorderLayout.SOUTH); JMenuBar bar=new JMenuBar(); bar.add(exit); setJMenuBar(bar); } public static void main(String[] args){ test2 t=new test2(); t.setVisible(true); } }
