Question

Hi all:
I have a Java Swing App. There is a button allow user to create open up a new window of the application. I use System.Exit(0) when user decides to close the application, however when I press “Close” button, both Application windows closed.

public static void main(String[] args)  
{       
 ghMain = new GreenHouseMain();     
}

Above is how I initialize the first application, then use the same code to create new GreenHouseMain Object to open second application window.

So my question is how do I close only one application window which the close button I pressed from?

Thanks all

call dispose() instead of System.exit() on the Window object that you want to close. When there are no more visible windows, the Event Dispatch thread will exit.
