Key Binding problem

[dilpreet28]

I am trying to do key binding
this is my code

public Buttons() {
initComponents();
btn1.getInputMap(jPanel1.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).p ut(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("ENTER"),"open project");
btn1.getActionMap().put("open project", new actionPerformed());
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, "You Clicked BTN1");
}

but in the getActionMap where it says new actionPerformed(), Netbeans puts a red line underneath it and on rollover it says
cannot find symbol
symbol: class actionPerformed
location: class Buttons

Where did you get this code from?
actionPerformed() is the name of the method in the ActionListener interface.
What is supposed to be the second parameter to the put() method?

Agrees with Norm -- if you have an error then you should check the API to make sure that your method calls have the right format.

But having said that, if you're trying to trap the enter key to make one JButton the default button, there's an easier way. Please check out JRootPane's setDefaultButton method.

I got the key binding code from a forum post and i wrote the actionPerformed function. I wrote a public function for the actionPerformed and tried to use it in the getActionMap(). This is just a small trial, i want to do this to a bunch of buttons and with different keys so i thought i should try and do it to one first.

Did you look at the API as Norm suggested? Do you realize that actionPerformed is not a class but is a method of an interface and several Abstract and concrete classes?
