Annoying problem class/interface error

please ignore this thread. sorryl

I believe you need to put it inside you class. You can't have the main method outside of the class :)

So put it in before the ending } of your "public class CashMachine extends JPanel {"

public class JPassword {
private String password = "pass";
private void main() {
//create frame
JFrame frame = new JFrame("Password");
frame.setVisible(true);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOS E);
frame.setSize(400,100);

JLabel label3 = new JLabel("Enter Pin Code");
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
frame.add(panel);

JPasswordField pass = new JPasswordField(5);
pass.setEchoChar('*');
pass.addActionListener(new AL());
panel.add(label3, BorderLayout.WEST);
panel.add(pass, BorderLayout.WEST);

}


private class AL implements ActionListener{

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
JPasswordField input = (JPasswordField) e.getSource();
char[] passy = input.getPassword();
String p = new String(passy);

if (p.equals(password)){
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Correct");
}
else
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "Incorrect");
}
}
}

I've basically done that..

It's not throwing a hissy fit on bluej now, but i'll just finish off the code and see what happens.

Thank you for your help.
