Hi,
Can someone tell me how i can implement a mouselistener interface on a frame.
I have a program that loads an image on a canvas. now i want to get the screen coordinate where user clicks on the image. I can do this using an applet but i want to do it with awt frame.
Can someone tell me?
Regards
Jump to PostIt's no different...
Jump to PostWhat exactly didn't work? Code should be the same.
public class MyFrame extends Frame implements MouseListener
//include methods found in the MouseListener interface

I tried the applet code on frame but it didn't work. That's why asked if someone could help.

Yes i did the same. But the program did not respond to the mouse events. Nothing happened.

If it had been you'd not have gotten a response at all...

It does work the same, but you may be confused about the way it works in applets and not realise it...

Its a long code but i hope u can easilt find the mouse events.

//=============================================//Hi,
I have implemented the MouseListener on Canvas class and it worked that way too. But i still can't understand why is it not working on Frame.
Regards.
Here's a little example that should demonstrate what is probably going on in your code.
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
class ImgMod3 extends Frame implements MouseListener
{
public ImgMod3()
{
this.addMouseListener(this);
//this.add(new Panel());
this.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
{
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e)
{
System.exit(0);
}
});
}
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)
{
javax.swing.JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(this, "Mouse button clicked");
}
public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e){}
public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e){}
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e){}
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e){}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
ImgMod3 frame = new ImgMod3();
frame.pack();
frame.setSize(300,300);
frame.setVisible(true);
}
}If you uncomment the line in the constructor then run the program, you'll notice that the events are no longer triggered. It's because the Frame is covered up by another component, so technically it'd be like trying to click on a window that's behind another window.
