How to exit a login form
Hello guys, i am working on an application that requires a login. The problem is that after logging in with a correct user id and password the login form (LoginGui) is suppose to exit and the main window(MainWindowGui) will appear, but the login form still remains. I tried System.exit(0) before calling the main window gui(MainWindowGui()) but it exits the whole application.
kinly advice me.

Look at the API doc for the class that is visible that you want to be hidden and see what methods will work. For example setVisibile will hide a window.

I just tried setVisible(false) and it is able to exit the login form but after that any form that comes up you can see the login form embedded it.

Can you make a small complete program that compiles, executes and shows the problem?

Why not just call the dispose() method on the LoginGUI if login/LogOut is successful?

...That is if the LoginGUI extends a JFrame.
