Your method initGUI() is never called, so you never create the GUI.

oh i got that. but now i have got some other error in running it. it compiles successfully. first error is some nullpointer error.

[JamesCherrill]

some nullpointer error.

The error message tells you exactly where the error happened. If you post the complete error message here we can have a look at it for you, but first look yourself at the line in your file that it gives you, and look for an uninitialised variable being used on that line.

You also may want to correct...

cont.add(Man);
cont.add(Woman);
cont.add(slider);

You are NOT specifying WHERE on your JPanel you want to put these (since you are using a BorderLayout).
