override internalFrameClosing method

What I am trying to do is make it so when somone clicks the x button on my jinternalframe that it does not get rid of it, simply hides it. Here is my code but it still gets rid of the frame.

characterFrame.addInternalFrameListener(new InternalFrameAdapter(){
    public void internalFrameClosing(InternalFrameEvent e) {
        characterFrame.setVisible(false);
        return;
    }
});

Any ideas?? I want to override what happens when you close the window and only have it run my code.

Solution

  • Is the JInternalFrame#setDefaultCloseOperation method with the HIDE_ON_CLOSE what you are looking for ? It is not entirely clear from your question
