How to close the window in AWT?

Question

I am creating a small application using AWT. When I try to close the window, the \"close\" button doesn\'t work.

Here\'s my code:

import java.awt.*;
         


        

Answer 1

It's better to use the method public void dispose()

Why should you have to dispose() a java.awt.Window that goes out of scope?

f.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
        public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we) {
            dispose();
         }
     }
);

Answer 2

Try doing it like this:

class ExampleClass implements ActionListener, WindowListener
{

...

f.addWindowListener(this);

...

public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e) {}
public void windowDeiconified(WindowEvent e) {}
public void windowIconified(WindowEvent e) {}
public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e) {}
public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {}
public void windowClosed(WindowEvent e) {}

public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) 
{
    System.exit(0);
}

}

Answer 3

You could do it like this:

f.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
  public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we){
    System.exit(0);
  }
});
