using actionlistener with an array of jbuttons

[Ravana]

i have a 3,3 array of jbuttons with actionlisteners attached.


how can i use actionperformed to pick out the one that was pressed and change it's name?

i treid using the getSource but i need to get the two numbers for the button position

This is the only way to do it:
an ActionEvent only contains the address of the JButton that is pressed. You'll have to search your buttonarray for a matching address.

public void actionPerformed(Actionevent e) {
if (e.getSource()==buttons[0][0]) // .....
if (e.getSource()==buttons[0][1]) // .....
if (e.getSource()==buttons[0][2]) // .....
if (e.getSource()==buttons[1][0]) // .....
// .......
}
}
