[SOLVED] Closing a Panel

[KeeFy]

Hi, I've got a little bit of a problem here. I've got an application that's calling this class that uses JFreeChart to display a gantt chart. The problem is when i close the gantt chart panel, it closes the the whole app.

Anyone have any clues?

Thanks in advance.

        final IntervalCategoryDataset dataset = createDataset(Data, thedates, type);
        final JFreeChart chart = createChart(dataset);

        // add the chart to a panel...
        final ChartPanel chartPanel = new ChartPanel(chart);
        chartPanel.setPreferredSize(new java.awt.Dimension(640, 480));
        setContentPane(chartPanel);

       final CategoryPlot plot = (CategoryPlot) chart.getPlot();
       Stroke stroke = new BasicStroke();
        plot.setDomainGridlinesVisible(true);
     if(type == 1)
     {     
         for( int g = 0 ; g < Data.length ; g++)
         {   
           plot.addDomainMarker(new CategoryMarker("Batch"+g+"", Color.BLACK, stroke, Color.BLACK, stroke, 0.05f));
         }
     }
       
       if(type == 2)
       {
        {

Hi, I've got a little bit of a problem here. I've got an application that's calling this class that uses JFreeChart to display a gantt chart. The problem is when i close the gantt chart panel, it closes the the whole app.

KeeFy,
Much of your posted code appears to be unrelated to the problem at hand, and the key code that's causing the problem may not have been posted. Question: are you displaying the chart in its own free-standing window? If so, are you using a JFrame? If so, change this to a JDialog. If this doesn't solve the problem, then you're going to have to do some debugging to try to create the smallest compilable program that will reproduce your problem. If doing this doesn't help you find the solution, then you can post this smaller more reasonable code here and we can have a look at it.

I didn't want the entire code. Please take another look at my post. You may wish to answer the questions that I posted regarding JFrame. Thanks.

[Fubarable]

OK, I've gone through all of your code (whew!) and answered the question myself: yes you use use a JFrame, "Test" to display what should be a JDialog. Change this, use a JDialog instead and I'll bet your problem is solved.

[KeeFy]

Thanks! I realised i was extending the application frame instead of creating a new one! All i did was create it's own JFrame, and violla!

Thanks for the help!
Cheers.

Glad you have it working, but still if "Test" is a JFrame, I'd use a JDialog instead. Also, I wouldn't extend JAnything here but instead would create a standard JDialog and add my stuff to a JPanel and then add that JPanel to the dialog's contentPane. Best of luck.
