Passing info between JFrames...

[IwishIcouldprog]

Hello,

I have created to JFrames. I want to pass information from 2 textboxes in one to 2 corresponding boxes in the other JFrame. I am not sure at all how to go about this? I am an experienced VB coder, but have to develop in java.

I understand I would have to use a get/set object?

What kind of code would I put in the sending JFrame and what kind in the receiving JFrame?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

The code below would work ok but only to send. If the values changed after sent then you could always send them back to the original source. If you wanted to implement a drag and drop scheme that would be another story.

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*; 
import java.awt.event.*; 

public class F{
 public static void main(String[] args){
   JFrame sending = new JFrame("Sending");
   JFrame receiving = new JFrame("Receiving");
   JButton jb = new JButton("Send");

   Container s = sending.getContentPane();  
   Container r = receiving.getContentPane();   

   JTextField js = new JTextField(10);
   JTextField jr = new JTextField(10);
 
   sending.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
    public void widowClosing(WindowEvent evt){
       System.exit(0);
    }
   });

   receiving.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter(){
    public void widowClosing(WindowEvent evt){
       System.exit(0);
    }
   });

   jb.addActionListener(new Sender(js,jr));
   
   s.add(js,BorderLayout.NORTH);
   s.add(jb,BorderLayout.SOUTH); 
   r.add(jr,BorderLayout.NORTH);

   sending.setSize(250,200); 
   receiving.setSize(250,200);
   
   sending.setVisible(true);
   receiving.setVisible(true);
 
 }
}

class Sender implements ActionListener{
  JTextField js; 
  JTextField jr;  

  public Sender(JTextField js,JTextField jr){
    this.js = js; 
    this.jr = jr;
  }

  public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt){ 
       jr.setText(js.getText());
   }
}
