You tell us. What is the exact text of the error? What type is osBean? What functions does that type have?

osBean is defined as:

OperatingSystemMXBean osBean = (com.sun.management.OperatingSystemMXBean)
			ManagementFactory.getOperatingSystemMXBean();

and the error text reads:

sysinfoHooshi.java:64: cannot find symbol
location: interface com.sun.management.OperatingSystemMXBean
			queue[pos].CPUUtil = ( osBean.getSystemCpuLoad() ) * 100;
1 error
                                                      ^

Yes, that is how I declared it.

The for-loop has in its body:

OperatingSystemMXBean osBean = (com.sun.management.OperatingSystemMXBean)
			ManagementFactory.getOperatingSystemMXBean();
 	queue[pos].ramUtil =100-( osBean.getFreePhysicalMemorySize()/osBean.getTotalPhysicalMemorySize() ) * 100;		
			queue[pos].CPUUtil = ( osBean.getSystemCpuLoad() ) * 100;

Solved then?

Don't know how to upgrade to see if the problem resolves

Hi.
What is it that an empty dialog appears as the result of my code?
my code:

import java.lang.System;
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
 
public class t{
 
	JDialog queryDialog = new  JDialog();	
    JCheckBox chkCPUUtil = new JCheckBox("CPU utilization");
    JCheckBox chkRAMUtil = new JCheckBox("RAM utilization");
    JCheckBox chkVersion = new JCheckBox("Version of the OS");
    JCheckBox chkArch = new JCheckBox("Processor architecture");
    JCheckBox chkName = new JCheckBox("Operating system name");
 
	public void showQueryDialog()
	{
		queryDialog.setModal(true);
		queryDialog.setSize(400, 150);
 
		queryDialog.setTitle("Query dialog");
 
		Container queryPane = queryDialog.getContentPane();
		queryPane.setLayout(null);
		queryDialog.add(chkName);
		queryPane.add(chkVersion);
		queryPane.add(chkArch);	
		JButton queryButton = new JButton("OK");
		queryPane.add(queryButton);
 
	//	button.addActionListener(this);
		queryButton.setBounds(90,90,30,10);
		queryDialog.setVisible(true);
	}
 
	public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception{	
	t o = new t();
	o.showQueryDialog();
	} // end main
}

Nothing.I have pasted all the code

I am still without solution

Give your classes better names and respect Java's naming convention that calls for class names to begin with capital letters.

Asking Norm's question differently (since you didn't get his point), Why are you using a null layout?

Why are you adding components to the dialog and to its content pane?

What are you using as a guide that is suggesting the techniques you've used in this code?

If you're comfortable doing so, download the latest 1.7 version of the JDK flavor of your choice and either replace the current 1.6 or add a new folder and stick 1.7 in it and then configure your IDE or editor to use the JDK 1.7 you just installed and compile to be compliant with 1.7.

If you are not comfortable doing this, then perhaps you should ask in an L/Ubuntu forum how to do what I've described or to simply update your Java version.

I changed it to FlowLayout()

I am new to Java. I wastesting to discover the problem. I changed the pane type from Container to JFrame

It is just that My professor wanted me to write a java code, and he doesn't tell us what to do

You're in university. The web is an open book, full to the brim with information, so I suggest you start by actually trying to learn rather than passing the buck like this. There are myriad tutorials and resources out there for you to look at, so start by finding one that addresses your issue. For example, from the comprehensive sun docs - How to Make Dialogs (The Java™ Tutorials > Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing > Using Swing Components).

Post your updated code with corresponding questions.

I asked for the sources of your inspirations, because there are a lot of bad examples on the 'net, possibly bad just because they're dated. Even if you're just trying different techniques, you probably saw examples of those techniques somewhere, and I was just wondering where. Not a big deal, but I suggest you use material provided by your professor or that has been written in the past 3 years or so. If you do need additional info, start with the Oracle Tutorials which have been mostly kept up to date.

I will post my original code, OK.

I don't really understand your point. Read the tutorials, and if there is a point at which functionality differs tangibly, find an OJDK reference for that specific functionality.

Your code seems to run fine for me in eclipse except for the results, but that wasn't the question. By the way, I'm using the Sun/Oracle JDK, so I would argue that your point is further invalidated.

I feel as though this thread should be merged with your previous question.

EDIT: You've posted 5 questions about this program in the past 24 hours... Do you do any of your own work?

You have some odd notions and practices that indicate you've made little to no effort to really understand what you're doing, the tools you're using, or what Java is. Please, take a step back from programming and do some studying.

--- Update ---

Multiple threads merged.

Please quit starting new threads on essentially the same topic. You've posted these and other threads trying to understand how to write action listeners, and I'm not convinced you've made any progress. Please review the advice you've been given and write a few study programs that include action listeners. Work on those until they perform as desired.

I have studied some examples, but believe me or not, I have no teacher. Never had any teacher.

They each work , but the problem is that I have 2 dialogs, each with one button.

You mentioned a professor earlier, and someone/something is requiring you to use OpenJDK. If you and your professor aren't connecting, then all the more reason to STUDY.

They each work , but the problem is that I have 2 dialogs, each with one button.

That's not a problem.

Post runnable code IN THIS THREAD that creates 2 dialogs, each with its own button, describe what is supposed to be happening (comments in your code would be helpful), what is happening instead, and specific questions that will help you make progress.
