[nic den]

hi atm i can show one jpopupmenu for one component

but i would like to know (whats the function or a sample code will do)
how to assciate two differents jpopupmenus with two differents components
like one jpopupmenu will be associate with the jtextpane and the other one with the jtextfield

thank for the help in advance

i search for this but i found nothing good yet
i thought that the setInheritsPopup funtion would do the job but thats not what im looking for

if you're using a mouseListener to trigger your popup.
simple use the event.getSource() to get the component,
then instanceof to see if a JTextPane of a JTextField

thank for the reply

yeah i should have think about this but i didnt lol
im use to do event.getsource() with actionlistener but i never done it with a mouselistener()
now its more clear how to do this

thank again michael

here is the solution :

 
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class DemoPopupMenu extends JFrame 
{   
     JPopupMenu popupMenu,pop;
     JMenuItem saveItem, cutItem, copyItem, pasteItem, helpItem;
     JTextArea textArea;
     JTextField textField;
     Container container;

     public static void main(String[] args) 
     {

     	DemoPopupMenu demo = new DemoPopupMenu();
     	demo.init();
     }

     public void init()
     {
         container = this.getContentPane();

         // 2. Create and add the text area to the content pane.


         textField = new JTextField(20);
         container.add(textField, BorderLayout.NORTH);



         textArea = new JTextArea("Click mouse right on this text for popup");
         textArea.setFont(new Font("Monospaced", Font.PLAIN, 14));
         textArea.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400,100));
         container.add(textArea, BorderLayout.SOUTH);


         // 3. Create a pop-up menu.

         popupMenu = new JPopupMenu("Test Popup Menu");

         // 4. Create menu items and add them to the pop-up menu.
         // Also add some separators as shown in the code.

         saveItem = new JMenuItem("Save");
         popupMenu.add(saveItem);

         popupMenu.addSeparator();

         cutItem = new JMenuItem("Cut");
         popupMenu.add(cutItem);

         copyItem = new JMenuItem("Copy");
         popupMenu.add(copyItem);

         pasteItem = new JMenuItem("Paste");
         popupMenu.add(pasteItem);

         popupMenu.addSeparator();

         helpItem = new JMenuItem("Help");
         popupMenu.add(helpItem);

         pop = new JPopupMenu("Test Popup Menu");

         // 4. Create menu items and add them to the pop-up menu.
         // Also add some separators as shown in the code.

         saveItem = new JMenuItem("Save");
         pop.add(saveItem);

         // 5. Add the mouse listener to the content pane.

         PopupMenuListener pml = new PopupMenuListener();
         textArea.addMouseListener(pml);
         textField.addMouseListener(pml);
    
	//added to pack and  show the frame -- RPF 10/04
	this.pack();
	this.setVisible(true);
    }

     // 7. Mouse listener class.

     class PopupMenuListener extends MouseAdapter 
     {
         public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me) 
         {
             showPopup(me);
         }

         public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent me) 
         {
             showPopup(me);
         }

         private void showPopup(MouseEvent me) 
         {
             if (me.getSource()==textArea && me.isPopupTrigger()) 
                 pop.show(me.getComponent(),me.getX(), me.getY());
               
             if (me.getSource()==textField && me.isPopupTrigger()) 
                 popupMenu.show(me.getComponent(),me.getX(), me.getY());      
         }
     }
}
