JMenuBar error.

[netharam ram]

Hi, I have a JMenuBar with some JMenus.
How to set the helpmenu of a JMenuBar?
Error:exception in thread "main" java.lang.Error: setHelpMenu() not yet implemented.
at javax.swing.JMenuBar.setHelpMenu(unknown source)
code:
JMenuBar jmb=new JMenuBar();
JMenu jhelp=new JMenu("Help");
jmb.add(Menu1........ etc.
jmb.setHelpMenu(jhelp);
****end of code
Happy middling with java. :

According to the API documentation here, "this method is not yet implemented and will throw an exception".
I guess you have to add your help menu in a different way...

oops!!!
terribly SORRY.
its late here and apperntly i need sleep!
that post was meant for another question .
sorry again.
as a side note, now that im here, u can try to use the MenuBar in the awt package instead of the JMenuBar in swing for that. (ofcourse only if u r willing to change your applictaion to awt instead of swing).
