I have these lines of code. I know you can not pass a non final variable to an inner class but I need to pass the variable i
to the anonymous inner class to be used as a seatingID. Can you suggest ways of doing that ?
JButton [] seats = new JButton [40]; //creating a pointer to the buttonsArray
for (int i = 0; i < 40; i++)
{
seats[i] = new JButton();//creating the buttons
seats[i].setPreferredSize(new Dimension(50,25));//button width
panel4seating.add(seats[i]);//adding the buttons to the panels
seats[i].addActionListener(new ActionListener()
{ //anonymous inner class
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
{
String firstName = (String)JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter First Name");
String lastName = (String)JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Last Name");
sw101.AddPassenger(firstName, lastName, seatingID);
}
});
}
