int result=JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "Are you sure to exit?","Confirm Exit", JOptionPane.YES_NO_CANCEL_OPTION, JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE );


if (result==JOptionPane.YES_OPTION){
System.exit(0);

}

what code placed for no or cancel button...to prevent closing window..

Have you looked at the setDefaultCloseOperation method?

[sathya88]

no...if select a close option in a frame(minimize,resizable,close), it will call the ask confirm exit, if yes means , use the system.exit() and then close the frame, if am not want to close(choose no or cancel option) then what should i do for not closing the frame???

screen shot attached...

Which parameter are you using with the setDefaultCloseOperation method?
If you return the window remains open.

@sathya88

I think this is what you are looking for

frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);

place the above code in line 13 and 17.

[sathya88]

parameter: EXIT_ON_CLOSE

setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

[NormR1]

If you use that one the window will close. Look at the JFrame API doc and find one that will NOT close the window.

[harinath_2007]

If you dont want the window not to close when user selects NO or CANCEL.

you should use

setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE);

[sathya88]

ya..DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE Parameter... program working fine...

[Onlineshade]

For no option you can go to another o frame and for cancel option you can do this....

class wl extends WindowAdapter{

public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e){
System.out.println("closing window"+e);
loop:
int result=JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "Are you sure to exit?","Confirm Exit", JOptionPane.YES_NO_CANCEL_OPTION, JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE );


if (result==JOptionPane.YES_OPTION){
System.exit(0);
}

if (result==JOptionPane.NO_OPTION){
this.setvisible(false);
new frame_name().setvisible(true);
}

if (result==JOptionPane.CANCEL_OPTION){
go to loop;
}

}

what is the use of dispose method in frame????

[NormR1]

What does the API doc say it does?

[mKorbel]

dispose(), really nothing for JFrame (JDialog, JOptionPane or JWindow)'s lifecycle, that's same as setVisible(false)

for JFrame is there System.exit(0); or JFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); these two methods always close all Object, kill the current JVM Instance,

that valid only for JFrame, because has implemented method finalize(), another Top-Level Containers (JDialog, JOptionPane, JWindow) miss this method and current instance must be closed by using System.exit(0);
