From the tutorial by SUN:
To bring up a popup menu ( JPopupMenu), you must register a mouse listener on each component that the popup menu should be associated with. The mouse listener must detect user requests that the popup menu be brought up.

The exact gesture that should bring up a popup menu varies by look and feel. In Microsoft Windows, the user by convention brings up a popup menu by releasing the right mouse button while the cursor is over a component that is popup-enabled. In the Java look and feel, the customary trigger is either pressing the right mouse button (for a popup that goes away when the button is released) or clicking it (for a popup that stays up). In a future release, a new mechanism for automatically triggering popup menus in the appropriate way for the look and feel might be added; see bug #4634626.

The mouse listener brings up the popup menu by invoking the show method on the appropriate JPopupMenu instance.

;JOOP!

So, in general you set a MouseListener on the whole Frame.
The action can be started on MousePressed(MouseEvent e)
when e.isPopupTrigger() is true.

;JOOP!

Then you can display what you want.

following shows you what you need:

Have a look at the link I posted

Hello Zzynx,

Yes I will just check how can I work with the link u posted..
thnx a lot for the same.

if you follow the code in the link I posted you won't need to change your code at all
just add the following at the start of your main():

Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getSystemEventQueue().push(new MyEventQueue());

>> I will just check how can I work with the link u posted
Well, replace the variable 'component' in the link by yours: fileNameLabel and/or fileNameTextField

its ggiving error that missplaced construction...after four lines of above programm till the end line

You probably placed it outside a method.

ASKER

no i did not, i placed it like below...

JLabel fileNameLabel = new JLabel("File Name:");
fileNameLabel.setBounds(10,45,130, 25);
textFieldPanel.add(fileNameLabel);

fileNameTextField.setBounds(100,45,225, 25);
textFieldPanel.add(fileNameTextField);

final JPopupMenu popup = new JPopupMenu();
JMenuItem menuItem1=new JMenuItem("First Item");
menuItem1.addActionListener (this);
popup.add(menuItem1);

fileNameTextField.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent evt) {
if (evt.isPopupTrigger()) {
popup.show(evt.getComponent(), evt.getX(), evt.getY());
}
}
public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent evt) {
if (evt.isPopupTrigger()) {
popup.show(evt.getComponent(), evt.getX(), evt.getY());
}
}
});

Where is the error (what line) and what exactly is the message. Which method have you written this code in?

This is not a valid program:
not closed by }
ans many lines at the end outside a method.

;JOOP!

ASKER

Well I came to know thru error the same thing, I have not written any method for menuItem1.addActionListener(this);

how shall I write the method for the same?

rachelee, I answered your question long ago.
How long will you go on asking questions for the same 500 points?

;JOOP!

ASKER

Hello Sciuriware,

I did run this program and worked as well.
only the problem now i am facing is >> I want to have popup menu in textfield of FILENAME and DIRECTORY

I guess its ok - you can just close it with a } after the last line:

>> JTextField interPhoneNrTextField = new JTextField();

- because the data-members can be declared anywhere in the class (after methods) too. I'll compile it and see what are the other errors.

Add 'actionPerformed()' to your program.

;JOOP!

ASKER

please if u can Mr Mayank

Who is Mayank?

rachelee, is it possible to
1) post the program exactly as you have it
2) post the exact error message(s) you get

I can't compile all of it since I don't have Port and some other classes.

>> menuItem1.addActionListener(this);

Your class also needs to implement ActionListener.

>> Who is Mayank?

Yours truly.

I feel this question is hyjacked; I retreat.

>> Who is Mayank?
I *think* that's mayankeagle ;°)

ASKER

error is in line

menuItem1.addActionListener (this);
saying
menuItemthe method addActionListener (ActionListener) in the type AbstractButton is not applicable for the arguments(SmsManager)

ASKER

ya Mayankeagle,

sorry i just did not typed last alphabates

Did you make your class implement ActionListener as sciuriware suggested?

>> menuItemthe method addActionListener (ActionListener) in the type AbstractButton is not applicable for the arguments(SmsManager)

As sciuriware said:
>>Replace :
>>public class SmsManager extends JFrame
>>by:
>>public class SmsManager extends JFrame implements ActionListener
+
>> Add 'actionPerformed()' to your program. (= SmsManager class)

ASKER

Mr sciuriware,

u were right
I did get popup menu thru ur answer, I just did implement SMsmanager extends JFrame implements ActionListener

thnx I would like to split the points, as Mr Mayankeagle gave me the codes for it but I did half code already thru Mr Zzynx as well,

thank u all brilliants.

best regards
Rachel

ASKER

what shall I do if i want to add more items like paste and rename and blablab

ASKER

Well i got on my own
thnx a lot

just add more JMenuItem's to the popup menu

You need to add more menu-items to you menu and implement the action-listener logic for them in your class. If you choose to use the same class, then you first need to find out the source of the event.

public void actionPerformed ( ActionEvent ae )
{
Object source = ae.getSource () ;

if ( source == menuItem1 )
{
// implement logic for cut
}

else if ( source == menuItem2 )
{
// implement logic for copy
}

// so on
}

Any Q's left related to this?

ASKER

ya, sorry for late,

I tried to get it worked according to their functions like copy cut paste but its not working, shall i give what actions it has to perform when I say cut or copy or anything which is in popup menu??

please let me know, thnx

Rachel

ASKER

ya as u have given above, shall I implement logic for everything, or else if u have it ready, it would be good...

thnx a lot for everything

rachel

I don't have anything readily available for copy-paste but I guess you will find code here:

http://www.javapractices.com/Topic82.cjp

http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javatips/jw-javatip61.html

ASKER

thnx i will try to implement it then,

thnx for the link , will see them and write back to u as soon as possible.

ASKER

Hello Mr Mayankeagle

the very first line of this giving error, did not understand why?

public void actionPerformed ( ActionEvent ae )
{
Object source = ae.getSource () ;

if ( source == menuItem1 )
{
// implement logic for cut
}

>> public void actionPerformed ( ActionEvent ae )

This line? What error? I hope you put it inside the class and outside all methods.

For being able to use the class ActionEvent you need to

import java.awt.event.*;

>> giving error
It's always a good idea to tell us WHAT error

Oh, well, did you make your class implement ActionListener? If yes, then it would give an error there too if the package is not imported.

ASKER

syntax error on token ")",; is expected

ASKER

yes zzynx

i have added already import java.awt.event.*;

ASKER

>>Oh, well, did you make your class implement ActionListener? If yes, then it would give an error there too if the package is not imported

no error anywhere else than this??

>> no error anywhere else than this??

That's fine.

>> syntax error on token ")",; is expected

Post your updated code. Some statement/ block has not been closed or started properly.

It has to be written after the current method is finished. That's why I said: >> "I hope you put it inside the class and outside all methods".

So put it outside that method as it is another method.

ASKER

no i did everything ok as per my views, u please tell me how shall i do it now?

thnx

Like i said - it has to be outside the method. So you need to do:

>> public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent evt){
>> if(evt.isPopupTrigger()){
>> popup.show(evt.getComponent(),evt.getX(),evt.getY());
>> }
>> }
>> });

} // close this method here

public void actionPerformed ( ActionEvent ae ) { // start this as another method

ASKER

I did it and now its showing error again, well i will see u after sometimes as its time to catch train , thnx being with me

Rachel

actionPerformed() is a method() like the method where
>> JLabel internationalPhoneNoLabel = new JLabel("Interntional");
is in, is a method.

So

public void whateverYourMethodIsCalled(...) {

...
JLabel internationalPhoneNoLabel = new JLabel("Interntional");
...
interPhoneNrTextField.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter(){
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent evt){
if(evt.isPopupTrigger()){
popup.show(evt.getComponent(),evt.getX(),evt.getY());
}
}

public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent evt){
if(evt.isPopupTrigger()){
popup.show(evt.getComponent(),evt.getX(),evt.getY());
}
}

});
} // end of method whateverYourMethodIsCalled

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae){
...
} // end of method actionPerformed()

>> now its showing error again
The same error?
Can you post the exact text?

This question has now a value of 3000 points ......................................

:-)

Well it is very tedious for me as i know very less about java programming but seems to be very easy for u all, i wish to increase point but only when I know how to do it??

thnx for the suggestion..

You can't increase the points as its already a 500-point question.

Are there any compilation/ runtime errors in the code? If so, where?

ASKER

Ok thnx for making me understand about points.

Frankly speaking there is nothing which I can understand about java properly, I just do not know all the things yet but would like to know and try the same.

Now in my program I have created popup menu and not the working of menu such as copy, cut , paste, open , rename .

So would like to have code for the same.

where shall I put that code and how?

thnx a lot for all
Rachel

ASKER

there is an error at last line of below programm, Please check it and let me know, as I have not implemented any logic for cut copy paste, I would like to know that too.

            }"this line." error is "Syntax error on token "}", delete this token"

See the code at: >> http://www.javapractices.com/Topic82.cjp

You need to make a similar TextTransfer class. In your actionPerformed (), if the source was JMenuItem1 (for Cut), for example, then use:

textTransfer.setClipboardContents ( "whatever" ) ;

If the Paste menu-item was clicked, then paste it into the text-field which has focus using textTransfer.getClipboardContents () ;

>> };

Remove the semi-colon from there.

>> public void actionPerformed1(ActionEvent ae){
>> Object source = ae.getSource();
>> if (source==menuItem1){
>> if (size == 0){
>> menuItem1.setEnabled(true);
>> }
>> };
>> }

The code after this is not in a method. You should instead remove this actionPerformed () method from there and paste it after the last line:

>> File showFileChooserDialog(){
....
>> return null;
>> }

After this - you can paste the actionPerformed () method.
