Java By Example: Java Menue Example [ javax.swing.JMenu ]

Here is a very basic example of Java Menu[JMenue]

import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JMenu;
import javax.swing.JMenuBar;
import javax.swing.JMenuItem;

public class Menu extends JFrame{
public Menu()
{
super("Menu example");

JMenu file = new JMenu("File");
file.setMnemonic(’F’);
JMenuItem newItem = new JMenuItem("New");
newItem.setMnemonic(’N’);
file.add(newItem);
JMenuItem openItem = new JMenuItem("Open");
openItem.setMnemonic(’O’);
file.add(openItem);
JMenuItem exitItem = new JMenuItem("Exit");
exitItem.setMnemonic(’x’);
file.add(exitItem);

//adding action listener to menu items
newItem.addActionListener(
new ActionListener() {

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
System.out.println("New is pressed");
}
}
);
openItem.addActionListener(
new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
System.out.println("Open is pressed");
}
}
);
exitItem.addActionListener(
new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
{
System.out.println("Exit is pressed");
}
}
);
JMenuBar bar = new JMenuBar();
setJMenuBar(bar);
bar.add(file);

getContentPane();
setSize(400, 400);
setVisible(true);
}

public static void main(String[] args)
{
Menu app = new Menu();
app.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
}
}
