Hello
I am trying to get to a Component On a JInternalFrame. I have a reference to the frame

on the frame there is a panel. on the panel there is a JTabbedPane. to add a tab to

the JTabbedPane I need to reference the Pane. Is there a way to do this?


thanks

public class AddNoteTab {

   

    public AddNoteTab() {
    }

    public void simpleTab(String thisFrameName, String folderName, JInternalFrame thisFrame) {


        String M = (" --> in simpleTab(" + thisFrameName + c + folderName +c+thisFrame.getTitle()+ ") var: thisFrameName : folderName : thisFrame<-- \n");
        System.out.println(M);
        System.out.println(C + M + AND + thisFrame.getTitle() + ":thisFrame.getName() : \n");

        JInternalFrame frame = thisFrame;
        
        int count= frame.getContentPane().getComponentCount();
       System.out.println(C+M+AND+count+": count of components on JInternalframe: \n");

       [b]no clue how to get to the JTabbedPane[/b]
       //JPanel p =(JPanel) frame.getContentPane().getComponent(0);
              //JTabbedPane jtp =p.

    }
}

output

CLASS 
 CreateOneNoteTabFile: 
 --> in setOneNoteFolderSystemDir() var: xxxxxxxxx : xxxxxxxx<-- 
 : meals:thisFrameName : 

CLASS 
 CreateOneNoteTabFile: 
 --> in setOneNoteFolderSystemDir() var: xxxxxxxxx : xxxxxxxx<--

 --> in simpleTab(meals , Dinner time , meals1) var: thisFrameName : folderName : thisFrame<-- 

CLASS

[b][i]The following line shows the frame I need[/i][/b]
[b] : meals1:thisFrame.getName() : [/b]

CLASS 
 AddNoteTab:

[b][i]The following line shows the number of components [/i][/b]
[b] : : 1: count of components on JInternalframe:  : [/b]

until tomorrow goodbye

solved:
I am using a reference to the JTabbedPane directly.
