Not abstract and doesn't override abstract method keyReleased

I'm receiving an error:

The reason for "javac" ing both is to show you the problem is with Test.java, specifically the line:

Code:

---

public class Test extends JPanel implements KeyListener, ActionListener {

---

What's is wrong and how can I fix it?
Thanks,

If a class implements an interface, it must implement all the methods of the interface. It looks like your error message is telling you that you're not doing this, that you're not implementing all the methods of the KeyListener.

Used same code from:
http://download.oracle.com/javase/tu...EventDemo.java
Copied and pasted from KeyEventDemo.java:

Code:

---

public class KeyEventDemo extends JFrame
        implements KeyListener,
        ActionListener

Regardless of what you've copied and pasted, your class implements KeyListener and thus requires all the methods of KeyListener. The error is telling you specifically that you don't have a valid keyReleased method, and searching through your code confirms this. What more information do you need to convince you that the error message is steering you in the right direction?

edit: and in fact the code you've linked to does have a valid keyReleased method, but yours doesn't. The error message isn't really that cryptic and tells you exactly what is wrong.

Luck.

Thank you so much for your help...Working code:
