Thread: Adding a Pop Up Frame using a JFrame

Alright, so first off you will need to have a working JFrame, I suggest using XHarveyX's.

Now that you have done XHarveyX's tutorials;

Step 1:
Search for:

Code:

	public static void main(String args[]) 
	{
		new Gui(args);
        }

Replace with:

Code:

	public static void main(String args[]) 
	{
		new Gui(args);
        javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                createAndShowGUI();
            }
        });
	}

Step 2:
Now you must add this static void;

Code:

    private static void createAndShowGUI() {
        //Create and set up the window.
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("PopUp");
        //frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        JLabel emptyLabel = new JLabel("");
        emptyLabel.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(175, 100));
        frame.getContentPane().add(emptyLabel, BorderLayout.CENTER);

        //Display the window.
        frame.pack();
        frame.setVisible(true);
    }

Now, exit save, and compile.

Wah lah, I will post a tutorial later on how to fix up the pop up.

Post any errors.
