Multiple windows (without using JInternalFrame)
I'm having some trouble with handling multiple windows, I can see several possiblities but they seem to be hacks. Could someone please advise me.
I want a "main window" to create a new window and then wait until the new window has satisfied some property and at that point it should be disposed and the result should be returned to the main window.
- JOptionPanel isn't flexible enough.
- I've tried using some variable blocking but it stopped Swing updating the JFrames.
- I also created a small solution using Observer and Observable, but to use Observable you have to extend Observable in the class you're using and I want to extend some other classes instead of just Observable.
Can anyone someone suggest the typical solution to this problem using Swing?
