Java Error ShouldNotReachHere

Question

I am trying to change the background color of the source, but java gives me a message about an internal fatal error. can you tell me what i am doing wrong.

import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; class ButtonPanel extends JPanel { private JButton yellowButton = new JButton("Yellow"); public ButtonPanel()//constructor { //setLayout is a method in JPanel that is called in this constructor setLayout (new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT)); add(yellowButton); actions actionsSpecified = new actions(); yellowButton.addActionListener(actionsSpecified); } } class actions implements ActionListener { //actionPerformed is an interface that muse be overriden public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) { // knows where the event is generated from(from a button, scrollbar etc...) JButton source = (JButton) evt.getSource(); Color colorYellow = Color.yellow; source.setBackground(colorYellow); /*Color color = getContentPane().getBackground(); if (source == yellowButton) color = Color.yellow; else if (source == blueButton) color = Color.blue; else if (source == redButton) color = Color.red; setBackground(color); repaint();*/ } } class ButtonFrame extends JFrame { public ButtonFrame() { setTitle("ButtonTest"); setSize(300, 200); addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() { public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) { System.exit(0); } } ); Container contentPane = getContentPane(); contentPane.add(new ButtonPanel()); } } class ButtonTest { public static void main(String[] args) { JFrame frame = new ButtonFrame(); frame.show(); } }

In many examples, this template is used to launch the Swing application. You might want to try it. The whole goal is to create Swing components inside the Swing Thread.

 public static void main(String[] args) { //Schedule a job for the event-dispatching thread: //creating and showing this application GUI. javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() { public void run() { JFrame frame = new ButtonFrame(); frame.show(); } }); } 

EDIT: After carefully studying the issue. You cannot run Swing on the Android / Dalvik platform. As other people commented, it works fine, if it works on the Sun JVM, it looks like you are using it under an Android emulator. This will not work.

Update tags to enable Android if you are trying to run it on Android.
