[php]
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JPanel;

public class lettercount
{
public static void main(String args[])
{
Panel pan=new Panel();
pan.setLayout(new BorderLayout()); // STUPID LAYOUT

JFrame app=new JFrame();

JButton fileButton=new JButton("Scan File");

char[] letterArray=new char[26];
int[] letterCount=new int[26];
int count=0;

for(int i=97;i<=122;i++)
{
letterArray[count]=(char)i;
//System.out.printf("%d = %s\n",count,letterArray[count]);
count++;
}

app.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
app.add(pan);
//app.add(fileButton);
app.setSize(450,250);
app.setVisible(true);

}
}
[/php]

Im am completely clueless on how to implement this BorderLayout thing so that i can manage where my buttons and other components are being placed.

[php]
Panel pan=new Panel();
pan.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
[/php]

these 2 lines of code are my main problem.. do i have to make my class extend JPanel??? Im lost....


I would like to add that im using the API page from sun as my reference.
