First of all, I am a complete Java NOOB.
I want to handle multiple button presses with one function, and do certain things depending on which button was clicked. I am using Netbeans, and I added an event with a binding function. That function is sent an ActionEvent by default.
How do I get the object that was clicked in order to trigger the binding function from within that function so I know which functionality to pursue?
The object that sent the event is the event source so evt.getSource() will get you that. However, it would be far better to have separate handlers for separate events.
