Use a
javax.swing.Actionto implement the logic (e.g. by extendingjavax.swing.AbstractAction) and then assign the action to the menu item and the button. Both have a constructor that takes an Action as the parameter.Enabling/Disable the action will then also enable/disable the button and the menu item.
See the Swing tutorial‘s chapter about using actions for more details
