Code explanation sort. 1

[JProg]

Dear Everyone,

I am using some really neat code to listen to a group of JComboBoxes.

The four JComboBoxes in question sit on a JFrame and each of the boxes presents the program user with ten numberical choices, namely 0-9.

The Listener method for one of the JComboBoxes, named Millennia is shown below:

Millennia.addItemListener(new ItemListener(){
public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent e){
Millenniaxx = Millennia.getSelectedIndex();
}});

If anybody can explain to me what the above code does it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

This is called an anonymous class. Do a search for anonymous classes and you will find plenty of information.
