Action listeners are probably the easiest — and most common — event handlers to implement. You implement an action listener to define what should be done when an user performs certain operation.
An action event occurs, whenever an action is performed by the user. Examples: When the user clicks a , chooses a , presses Enter in a . The result is that an actionPerformed
message is sent to all action listeners that are registered on the relevant component.
To write an Action Listener, follow the steps given below:
public class MyClass implements ActionListener {
someComponent.addActionListener(instanceOfMyClass);
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { ...//code that reacts to the action... }
In general, to detect when the user clicks an onscreen button (or does the keyboard equivalent), a program must have an object that implements the ActionListener interface. The program must register this object as an action listener on the button (the event source), using the addActionListener method. When the user clicks the onscreen button, the button fires an action event. This results in the invocation of the action listener's actionPerformed method (the only method in the ActionListener interface). The single argument to the method is an ActionEvent object that gives information about the event and its source.
Let us write a simple program which displays how many number of times a button is clicked by the user. First, here is the code that sets up the TextField , button and numClicks variable:
public class AL extends Frame implements WindowListener,ActionListener {TextField text = new TextField(20);Button b;private int numClicks = 0;
In the above example, the event handler class is AL which implements ActionListener.
We would like to handle the button-click event, so we add an action listener to the button b as below:
b = new Button("Click me");b.addActionListener(this);
In the above code, Button b is a component upon which an instance of event handler class AL is registered.
Now, we want to display the text as to how many number of times a user clicked button. We can do this by writing the code as below:
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { numClicks++; text.setText("Button Clicked " + numClicks + " times");
Now, when the user clicks the Button b, the button fires an action event which invokes the action listener's actionPerformed method. Each time the user presses the button, numClicks variable is appended and the message is displayed in the text field.
Here is the complete program(AL.java):
import java.awt.*;import java.awt.event.*;public class AL extends Frame implements WindowListener,ActionListener { TextField text = new TextField(20); Button b; private int numClicks = 0; public static void main(String[] args) { AL myWindow = new AL("My first window"); myWindow.setSize(350,100); myWindow.setVisible(true); } public AL(String title) { super(title); setLayout(new FlowLayout()); addWindowListener(this); b = new Button("Click me"); add(b); add(text); b.addActionListener(this); } public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { numClicks++; text.setText("Button Clicked " + numClicks + " times"); } public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) { dispose(); System.exit(0); } public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e) {} public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {} public void windowIconified(WindowEvent e) {} public void windowDeiconified(WindowEvent e) {} public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e) {} public void windowClosed(WindowEvent e) {}}
More Examples: Beeper
program example is available in this trail's introduction to events, . You can find the entire program in . The other example described in that section, , has two action sources and two action listeners, with one listener listening to both sources and the other listening to just one.
Because ActionListener
has only one method, it has no corresponding adapter class.
Method | Purpose |
---|---|
Called just after the user performs an action. |
Method | Purpose |
---|---|
Returns the string associated with this action. Most objects that can fire action events support a method called setActionCommand that lets you set this string. | |
Returns an integer representing the modifier keys the user was pressing when the action event occurred. You can use the ActionEvent -defined constants SHIFT_MASK , CTRL_MASK , META_MASK , and ALT_MASK to determine which keys were pressed. For example, if the user Shift-selects a menu item, then the following expression is nonzero: actionEvent.getModifiers() & ActionEvent.SHIFT_MASK | |
(in java.util.EventObject ) | Returns the object that fired the event. |
