close box on JFram

[grindstonegirl]

Hi
I have a JFrame and when the user hits the x close box, I want to call a method then close the JFrame. I understand how to use JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE but is there anyway to set it to call a method first? thanks for you help

you can use

 setDefaultCloseOperation()

JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

if you don't want to do somethings before close your frame
if you must do somethings (e.g. save, change some properties) you must use Window Listener.
