My program creates a JDialog as a child of a Frame. The JDialog gets some parameters from the user and the main Frame uses those to create an aquarium.

The problem is that the Aquarium is not waiting for the JDialog to finish, so it never gets the data. I wrote a workaround, but it feels like it is wrong.



isEmpty is set to false once submit is pressed.

Is there a better way to go about this? Thanks

Thanks, I knew the solution would be a simple one.

 
Don't get me started about those stupid light bulbs.
