        }
     
        public void createPopUpFrame() {
     
            this.setDefaultCloseOperation(PopUpFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
            this.setComponents(this.getContentPane());
            this.setTitle(errorNotificationFrameTitle);
            this.setIconImage(icon);
            this.setSize(popUpWindowWidth, 100);
            this.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
            this.setResizable(false);
            this.setVisible(true);
        }
     
    }

    and i have a simple main class that extends the JFrame class
    public class NewMain {
     
        public static void main(String[] args) {
     
            JFrame f = new JFrame();
     
            PopUpFrame p = new PopUpFrame();
     
            f.setSize(400, 500);
            f.setVisible(true);
            f.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
     
            p.createPopUpFrame();
     
        }
    }

    my problem here is.. when i run the main class, the popUpFrame object will pop up..

    but the problem is it DOESNT ACT like THE JOptionPane...

    when i press the exit button.. all the frames are exiting.... how can i resolve this one...


    i need this customize frame for my program...

    I believe calling System.exit terminates everything.

    Default Re: frame are exiting at the same time

    now i want to ask how to.. make this.. please help...

    i want to make an action for this button... that if i press ok it will just act like a JOption button
    that will JUST EXIT the DIALOG not the whole program...

    this is only the comman i know how to terminate
    System.exit(0)

    but if i use this.. all the windows that are running will terminate..

          Action closeAction = new AbstractAction() {
     
                public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {
     
                             // an action that will only command this button to exit ONLY itself not the whole windows that are running 
                }
            };

    frame.dispose();

    Where 'frame' is a reference to your JFrame. You can also set the default close operation to DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE, or if you wish to re-use the window just set its visibility to false (setVisible(false)).

            SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
     
                PopUpFrame pU = new PopUpFrame();
     
                public void run() {
     
                    pU.createPopUpFrame();
                }
            });
        }
    }

    main
    public class NewMain {
     
        public static void main(String[] args) {
     
            PopUpFrame pU = new PopUpFrame();
     
            pU.setErrorNotificationFrameTitle("Error Title");
            pU.setErrorNotificationLabel("Label");
     
            PopUpFrame.popTheMessage();
        }
    }

    i want this class to be as flexible as possible.. but i cant figure out why is that i cant generate the title and the label?

    i tried to put a string label and a string title in the PopUp class.. and it runs perfectly.. but when i use the methods .setErrorNotificationFrameTitle(String frameTitle); and setErrorNotificationLabel(String labelMessage); it doesnt generate the desired output...

    Default Re: frame are exiting at the same time

    A quick look-over and it looks like you're just setting a string inside the class, not the actual title of the frame. Use setTitle() to make sure the title gets set.
    frame.setTitle("My Frame");
