AWT Event

[Ogwal Boniface]

Dear Colleagues,
Consider the code below:
I like this to return (after click OK button) whatever someone enters in the textfield into a new label:
Example: Enter Text: ****** [OK]
You Entered: ******

//Program to return whatever is entered by a user when a button is clicked

//AssignmentFrame.java

import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class AssignmentFrame extends Frame implements WindowListener{
	public AssignmentFrame(String title){
		super(title);
		setSize(500,400);
		setLocation(150,150);
		setLayout(new FlowLayout());
		addWindowListener(this);
	}
public static void main(String[]args){
	AssignmentFrame f1=new AssignmentFrame("GUI Test");
		Label l1=new Label("Enter Text");
		f1.add(l1);
		TextField tf1=new TextField(40);
		f1.add(tf1);
		f1.setVisible(true);
		Button b1=new Button("OK");
		f1.add(b1);
		f1.setVisible(true);
		Label l2=new Label("You entered:");
		f1.add(l2);
		f1.setVisible(true);
		Label l3=new Label("");
		l3.setBackground(Color.gray);
		f1.add(l3);
		f1.setVisible(true);
}
	
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e){
	dispose();
	System.exit(0);
}
public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e){}
public void windowClosed(WindowEvent e){}
public void windowIconified(WindowEvent e){}
public void windowDeiconified(WindowEvent e){}
public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e){}
public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e){}

}

Thanks for your help.

Check out ActionListener. You may want to consider switching from AWT to Swing though; Swing is more powerful and looks better on most systems.

Moving to AWT / Swing.
