Closing JFrame with button click

Question

I have the jButton1 private member of JFrame and i wanted to close the frame when the button is clicked   jButton1 addActionListener new ActionListener         public void actionPerformed ActionEvent e                    I wanted to do super close   but could not find close for super  Is there some way to refer to the JFrame

You cat use setVisible    method of JFrame  and set visibility to false  or dispose    method which is more similar to close operation

You can use super dispose   method which is more similar to close operation

You will need a reference to the specific frame you want to close but assuming you have the reference dispose   should close the frame   jButton1 addActionListener new ActionListener         public void actionPerformed ActionEvent e               frameToClose dispose

It appears to me that you have two issues here  One is that JFrame does not have a close method  which has been addressed in the other answers   The other is that you re having trouble referencing your JFrame  Within actionPerformed  super refers to ActionListener  To refer to the JFrame instance there  use MyExtendedJFrame super instead  you should also be able to use MyExtendedJFrame this  as I see no reason why you d want to override the behaviour of dispose or setVisible
