HashMaps containing JComponents

[chillin]

Hey all,

I've got a 2D HashMap, in which there are JCheckBoxes, JButtons, and JTextFields, so it's like: HashMap <String, HashMap<String, JComponent>>. I add JComponents dynamically to it. My goal is to add some listener to the JComponents, which is able to indicate either the user clicked on the button, or checked the checkbox, and to be able to get to know the key which belongs to the chosen JComponent.
Can anyone help me? I'd appreciate your help.

Perhaps it's me, but I'm not sure what specifically you need help with.

Thank you for your answer. I'm sorry if I wasn't exact enough. My question is: which listener should I add to my Hashmap/JComponent to reach my goal? Since I handle my CheckBoxes, ect. together, I can't use ItemListener, or any other specific listeners.
It's important to get to know what happened, and which key belongs to the JComponent which sent the event.

I'm not sure why you're using this design and what you're trying to achieve from it, but perhaps there is another and better way to achieve your end goals. Please give us more information on the problem you're trying to solve from the user's perspective and not from a specific code solution perspective.
