You need not set the Action listener from the UI. What you can do is- after the call to initComponents() [dont know the exact name of the method for initializing components] you can add a line there- button.setActionListener()



Thanks a lot !
calling button.AddActionListener() after call to initComponents() in constructor worked.

But for most of the changes- the UI provides an option. What kind of changes/tweaks are you planning to do?

I have been hand coding Swing GUI applications. Now I want to move to NetBeans to create my SWING applications. What are the best practices? Especially I am struck because most of codes are uneditable. Is there a way to make them editable (At least a tweak) other than using design views?

Thanks

In My application I have one to many relationshp between Author and Book classes.
Author 1---->* Book. I have done the mappping as follows;

Book.java


Author.java



I am using merge operation for updating detached objects. When ever I am updating or adding Book objects and Merging the Author object, changes are reflected in the database. However when I client have remove Book object (Say in the database there are three books related to Author, But now I am caling merge operation with two Books objects with matching pk in the collection.

But I do not see missing Book object being deleted from the Book table. Can someone help me explaining how to do this. Is there any way to remove books (many side) without explicitly deleting those. i.e. By Merging Author object.

Thanks.
