simple menu

hi im making a simple menu in my application this way:

Code:

---

private void makeMenu()
    {
        JMenuBar menuBar;
        JMenu menuFile, menuHelp;
        JMenuItem file, help;
       
        menuBar = new JMenuBar();
       
        menuFile = new JMenu("Fil");
        file = new JMenuItem("Spara");
        menuFile.add(file);
        file = new JMenuItem("Avsluta");
        menuFile.add(file);
       
        menuHelp = new JMenu("Hjälp");
        help = new JMenuItem("Hjälpfil");
        menuHelp.add(help);
       
        mFrame.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
    }

---

but it will only show a very small thing in the top, not a menu, are there something wrong with my code here?

You should add menuFile and menuHelp to your menuBar.

kind regards,

Jos
