Hello,

Is there a clean way to propogate changes made to a JPanel (components being added,removed, resized..) to the ancestors, preferrably the top-level (internal) frame so i can call pack() to make it resize..

i was planning on building a system my self based on some kind of LayoutChangeHandler interface that you can register on a panel but wanted to check first if there wasn't something built in already

thanks a lot in advance!

java.awt.event.ComponentListener for resizing, moving, showing and hiding of components.
java.awt.event.ContainerListener for adding and removing components to and from a container.
The latter gives you a ContainerEvent which even tells you which Component was added/removed.
