Function as argument?

[martypapa]

Is it possible to send a method as an argument to another object?

I have several buttons that I made myself, that extend the JComponent Class. I don't want them all to perform the same method when they are clicked, so how do I achieve this?

I've scanned the net and found abstractActions, but I'm not sure if this is the way to go.

Here is an example of what I would like to achieve:

public class MyClass{
[INDENT]
public MyClass(){
[INDENT]
MyComponent button1 = new MyComponent();
MyComponent button2 = new MyComponent();


//I know this part is wrong, so how can I do it?
button1.clickMethod = goToMenu();

button2.clickMethod = doSomethingElse();
[/INDENT]
}[/INDENT]


}

public class MyComponent extends JComponenet{
?Function? clickMethod();
...
[INDENT]//Code for click
public void onClick(){
//do clickMethod()
}[/INDENT]

}

Thank you

Define and use interfaces: e.g.

public interface Func1 { void func1(); }
public interface Func2 { void func2(); }
...
public interface Funcn { void funcn(); }

... and make your class implement one or more of those interfaces.

kind regards,

Thanks Jos, I'll try that now and see how I go.
