jdialog dispose not works properly

[sezanawa]

Hi Guys,

I have a small application which i wrote in Java. There is a MainFrame extends jfram class. There is another class named LoginDialog extends JDialog.

My MainFrame class have main method where i create object of my Dialog class before i do setVisible(true ) for MainFrame.

I just want that Login Dialog appears first and if user get authentication from System then it show MainFrame window.

LoginDialog appears and when i press ok login button i check authentication and then if its true, i set a localvariable true then setVisible(fals e) so that LoginDialog disappears. And now i check in Mainframe for the localvariable of LoginDialog either its true or false.

During debugg mode it show true and then i also calls my MainFrame but during run mode it does not works.

I dont knw whats wrong here.?? Can any body helps me??

here is code.

MainFrame Class code....
[HTML]
public static void main(String[] args) {

MainFrame aWindow= new MainFrame ();
Toolkit thekit=aWindow. getToolkit();
Dimension winsize=thekit. getScreenSize() ;
aWindow.setBoun ds(winsize.widt h/3,winsize.heigh t/4,winsize.width/3,winsize.heigh t/3);
aWindow.setDefa ultCloseOperati on(EXIT_ON_CLOS E);
aWindow.setLoca tionRelativeTo( null);
aWindow.setMaxi mumSize(new java.awt.Dimens ion(400, 325));
aWindow.setAlwa ysOnTop(true);

aWindow.loginCh ecked = aWindow.login() ;
//aWindow.setVisi ble(true);
if(aWindow.logi n()){

aWindow.setVisi ble(true);
}

else if(!aWindow.til lNotLoged ) {
System.out.prin tln("Sorry");
aWindow.dispose ();

}


}

private boolean login() {

LoginDlg login = new LoginDlg(this);
if(LoginDlg.log gedIn){

return true;
}
return false;

}
[/HTML]
Code from LoginDialog class
[HTML]
public static boolean loggedIn = false;

private void jLoginBtnMouseC licked(MouseEve nt evt) {
System.out.prin tln("jLoginBtn. mouseClicked, event=" + evt);
this.setLoggedI n(true);
//this.dispose();
this.setVisible (false);

}


public void setLoggedIn(boo lean loggedIn) {
this.loggedIn = loggedIn;
}

[/HTML]

is there any way it should work by disposing dialog but still have class data members. As much i know dispose only clear GUI Elements (Panel, buttons, frams etc) from Memory and all other class functions are still in hand. Atleast in .Net it works.

I need your urgent help.

Thanks
best regards

Why don't you simply add an ActionListener to that 'OK' button and close the
JDialog from within that ActionListener' s actionPerformed method? Note that
when you dispose a JDialog, the entire object stays intact, it just becomes
invisible.

Thanks Man,

I am actually using a GUI Plugin named Jigglo. I just used there provided Event. I did not understand when i debugg program it works prefect but when i run it, it does not work. I am using Eclipse as IDE.

What could be a reason for this problem.???

Ok i gonna try it with Action Performed.

Yes you should; those MouseEvents are really low level events and you don't
want to deal with those; you want to handle the 'semantic' or higher level events
such as ActionEvents fired by e.g. buttons; the button took care of the low level
event and offers you a higher level event (an ActionEvent). Use those instead.

kind regards,
