mouse click

[tenniscrazy]

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
