How to detect double click with a JFrame

[Jary316]

Hello everyone,

I was able to find a solution to my problem but I have one issue: my current code thinks the first click of a double click is a normal click. I do not know how to solve this.

	@Override
	public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {
		if (!doubleClicked) {
			if (e.getClickCount() == 2) { .... }
			else { ... }
		}
	}

The else bracket gets executed when the user is making a double click, on the first click, and it should not. Does anyone has any idea how I can fix this please?
Thank you very much.

You're not supposed to do that... it irritates people and is a good way to not get help.

You have the right idea, checking the click count. If the click count is not two, don't do anything. One way to handle this is to check for that condition first in your handler. If the click count is not two, return.

I am sorry CJSLMAN.

The thing is that I need a different action to be executed for a single click, but it gets executed on the first click of a double click.
