IllegalArgumentException: adding a window to a container
I have made a JFrame called PlayWindow (Class file- PlayWindow)
This has got a main with some Frame functionality and its got a second panel class inside called ButtonPanel (Class file- PlayWindow)
This file i can run seperated from the rest.
In this window with the ButtonPanel i want to add a PlayGround panel called PlayPanel (Class file - PlayPanel)
In the StartHandler (Class file - StartHandler) i start this as follows:
Code:
PlayWindow form = new PlayWindow(new PlayPanel(game.getPlayground(), 30, 30, 20, 20));
This doesn't seem to work, i get an IlligalArgumentException.
Seperated from eachother it does work. The Playground functionallity does work with this code
Code:
PlayPanel panel = new PlayPanel(spel.getPlayground(), 30, 30, 20, 20);
I get the following error:
