To close a JFrame and release all its resources you can call its dispose() method.

depends on....

  • if current parent JFrame/JDialog/JWindow for JButton quit = new JButton(); or not (not possible to suggest something based on your code and description),

  • if yes, then don't extend JFrame/JDialog/JWindow, create this Object as local variable, use this variable e.g. myWindow.setVisible(false) btw equals for JVM resources setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE/HIDE_ON_CLOSE) at runtime, you can to re_use this window for another action (myWindow.setVisible(true))
