Question

How can I invoke setVisible(false) of JFrame within addActionListener function of a JButton (like below) :

jButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
  public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
   //here           
  }
});

Answer 1

Supposing you have a variable declared like:

JFrame frame;

you just need to call:

frame.setVisible(false);

Otherwise, if you are inside a class that extends JFrame, you have to:

NameOfClass.this.setVisible(false);

Or even better that using setVisible(false), you ca dispose() it.
