Get X, Y Coordinate at Mouse Clicked Location in Java Applet or Frame

We can capture any mouse clicked location or position on a java applet or frame. Here Mouse Adapter class used to implement mouse click event.

At the time of mouse click, variable x will get X coordinate an y will get Y coordinate or mouse click location.

Program code with Applet:

import java.applet.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*;  /* <applet code = "mouseevent" width = 400 height = 200> </applet> */ public class mouseevent extends Applet {   int x=0;   int y=0;    public void init()  {    addMouseListener(new mymouselistener());  }  public void start()  {  }  public void paint(Graphics g)  { g.drawLine(x,y,x,y);     g.drawString(x + ","+ y, x,y);  } public class mymouselistener extends MouseAdapter  {   public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)   {   x = e.getX();   y = e.getY();   repaint();    }  } }

Program code with Frame:

import java.applet.*; import java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; public class mouseevent2 extends Frame {   int x=0;   int y=0;    public void init()  {    addMouseListener(new mymouselistener());   addWindowListener(new MyWindowAdapter());  }  public void paint(Graphics g)  {     g.drawLine(x,y,x,y);     g.drawString(x + ","+ y, x,y);  } public class mymouselistener extends MouseAdapter  {   public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)   {   x = e.getX();   y = e.getY();   repaint();    }  }  class MyWindowAdapter extends WindowAdapter  { public void windowClosing(WindowEvent we)  { System.exit(0);  } } public static void main(String p[]) { mouseevent2 me2 = new mouseevent2(); me2.setSize(250, 250); me2.setVisible(true); me2.init(); } }
