actionevent e.getsource() with multiple input options

[attiej]

Hi,

I am trying to create a decent looking solution for a problem I have. I can explain in words, but the code will be clearer:

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {		
		if(e.getSource().equals(ClassA.getButtonOne()) || 
			e.getSource().equals(ClassB.getButtonOne())) {			
			???????.setEnabled(false);			(class a or class b)
		}

Explanation: How can I change e.getSource() into the right class type, so I can perform methods on it? One extra detail: I am sure all methods in the if-statement possess the method I want to excecute, in the example above 'setEnabled'. I can solve the problem by creating multiple if-statements, but that would create duplicate code (especially since there will also be a class C and D in the future) .

Thanks in advance

You have to cast it. Something like this:

Object o = new String("test");
String s = ((String)o).substring(0,2);
