square not rotating in my swing app

Question

I have developed a little Swing application in which i have added a Square into my JFrame using a separate class component. Now i want to rotate this Square at its center, but I am only seeing a static Square which is not rotating at all.

This is my code...

public class Rotation extends JFrame {

    Rotation() {
        super("Animation of rotation about center");
        setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        setSize(400,400);

        add(new component());

        setVisible(true);
    }

    public static void main(String args[]){
        SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){public void run(){new Rotation();}});
    }
}

class component extends JPanel implements ActionListener {
    Timer timer;
    Rectangle.Double r=new Rectangle.Double(100,100,50,50);
    int theta=0;

    component() {
        timer=new Timer(10,this);
        timer.start();
    }

    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        if (theta==360){
            theta=0;
            theta++;
        }
        repaint();
    }

    public void paint(Graphics g){
        Graphics2D g2=(Graphics2D)g;
        g2.setColor(Color.GRAY);
        g2.rotate(theta);
        g2.fill(r);
    }
}

Could someone please help me identify and fix the problem.

Answer 1

the problem was that i needed to make 2 changes:

// 1.
g2.rotate(theta,125,125);

// 2.
super.paint(g);
