I am using this code to get the X and Y coordinates of an image placed as icon of a jLable. This method to get the coordinates was suggested by an answer to this question.
private void lblMapMouseClicked(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {
lblMap.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter() {
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
double X = e.getX();
double Y = e.getY();
System.out.println("X: " + X + "Y: " + Y );
}
});
}
When I run this public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) { }
gets called multiple times.
Exactly the amount of times I click on the image.
Eg: If I'm clicking on it for the 3rd time ,
X and Y values from the System.out.println
line , gets printed 3 times.
And it increases as the number of times I click increases. Can any of you explain why this happens? And how can I fix it? :)
