JList/MouseListener

Hi all
I'm using two JLists with the same MouseListener in a JFrame. How can I find
out on which JList the MouseEvent was released?
Is it generally possible or should I use a MouseListener for each JList?
Thanx for your help

Hi,
Assuming that you have some way of telling which JList is which, like this:

private JList leftList...
private JList rightList...

then you should be able to tell which list received the "up"
event by writing:

public void mouseReleased(M ouseEvent e)
{
if (e.getSource() == leftList) ...
else ... // must be rightList
}

I am a beginner here, still in my first Java class, so I hope this question is not so simple as to offend anyone, but I am finishing up my cd inventory program. Adding some GUI buttons to manipulate data in my JList. JList is beyond the scope of my class so I am finding help hard to come by. I only have two weeks of class left, so it is too late to go back to my array now. It is sink or swim with what I have. :o) For my question ... I...

Hi all, I've bumped into an odd problem creating a GUI in swing. As you will see in the screenshots, I have a tabbed layout. Each tab is a Jpanel. On this panel I have put a JList, containing a series of objects. My intention is to have a single column of objects in the list, and have it to scroll when the objects exceed the vertical space. My code is this: private JComponent createListBox() { Object test = {"Thingy 1","Thingy...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
