Moving To JDialog From JFrame: NetBeans Design View Has JFrame Without A Variable Name

Show all headers | View raw

If I can't obtain the name of a JFrame variable what can I do.

I created a form using NetBean's Design view. The JFrame doesn't appear to have a variable name associated with it. Can I obtain a variable name for it somehow.

If I copy the entire project to another file with the same name and delete the old file the project still runs. In the file, there is no explicit reference to a JFrame at all. But, the JFrame class is inherited in a number of places.

I need the name of the JFrame variable because I want to use it in a JDialog extended class using:

public class Test extends JDialog 
{ ...
     public Test(Frame parent) 
     { 
         super(parent, "Login", true);
...
     }
...

The above "parent" was created using:

         final JFrame frame = new JFrame("Testing");

I pass frame to Test:

         Test tst = new Test(frame); 

Thank you,
