Question

This is very basic code but i just need some help to understand..

i have a button and i want to place it on the EAST side of the Panel.. any suggestions..

    public class ButtonText { 
        public static void main(String[] args) {
            Frame frame=new Frame("Button Frame");
            Button button = new Button("Submit"); 
            frame.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
            frame.add(button, BorderLayout.EAST);
            frame.setSize(200,100);
            frame.setVisible(true);
            frame.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
            {
                public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e){
                System.exit(0);
            }
        });
    }

which looks like this https://i.stack.imgur.com/WHX4Y.jpg

To lay your user interface out with a border layout manager, you need to set your frame’s layout to an instance of BorderLayout. A default FlowLayout sets components out from left to right and onto next lines if necessary.

frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
frame.add(button, BorderLayout.EAST);
