mouse click

hey

I'm trying to use getButton to see whether the mouse is clicked down. If i add it in where i get the mouse position, it seems to work, but whenever i try to use the variable, it says it expects something else.

code:
vp.addMouseMotionListener(new MouseMotionAdapter(){
        public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {//get the nearest snap point
            int x = e.getX(), y = e.getY();
            int mx = x % gw, my = y % gh;
            int click = e.getButton();
           
            npx = x - mx;
            npy = y - my;
           
            status.setText(npx+", "+npy);
            repaint();
        }


I'm wondering what kind of variable i'm supposed to use for click.

on the class libraries one page says it outputs a variable and another page says it outputs a constant.

could someone please help me get this working, thanks

You're going to have use the MouseListener interface as well, as it includes the method for mouse clicking.

Java:
public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e)


Then you need to addMouseListener(); to your object.

You have to implement this... check Java MouseListener at this site HERE

I hate to be painfully obvious but the documentation and even examples are everywhere for you to see.

thank you

I know this is probably very basic and obvious, but i'm still not used to most things in java
