Overriding question

[alacn]

Ok i understand overriding as basically a subclass using the same method name as its super class, just so everything looks more organised etc.

But what about the built in method paintComponents(Graphics g) ?

it seems that when i override this built in method, im still getting the funnctionality of this method plus whatever it is i want to do, ie paint something.

I thought when you override a super's method, u basically just using the same name and ur own code, and no code from the super.

could someone clarify this for me please

Can you post the code so that we can see how did you override the paintComponents(Graphics g) method.
