Mouse Listeners?

[Jimmy]

Alright..... I'm making a bot, and I've added a mouse listener to the jpanel that loads the rs applet. The problem is that the mouse listener only gets events from the panel, and not the applet, and I cannot add the mouse listener directly to the applet, because the mouse listener is what loads the jpanel and jframe of the bot.

It's a bit confusing to explain. My code : http://uppit.com/H07PAU

Well the mouse listener is supposed to only work for each component that it is added to and since the applet is a component and you don't add it then I wouldn't think it's possible another way. I don't understand why you can't add it to the applet?

Because

Mouse listener = new Mouse();
gui.create gui = new gui.create();
gui.panel.addMouseListener(listener);
gui.panel.addMouseMotionListener(listener);

is how I load the GUI, and if I added it to the applet, how would I load that same applet in the gui?

EDIT: I tried loading the MouseListener's to the applet and it still didn't work -.-

panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
botStub.rs.addMouseListener(listener);
botStub.rs.addMouseMotionListener(listener);
panel.add(botStub.rs);

EDIT:EDIT: I added the listener in the class that loads the Applet and it only works if I move the mouse on the black space surrounding the applet, but not the applet itself!

    public botStub() {
	try {
		bot.Mouse listener = new bot.Mouse();
		client = Class.forName("client");
		rs = (Applet) client.newInstance();
		params = new Properties();
		rs.setStub(this);
		rs.init();
		rs.start();

		rs.addMouseListener(listener);
		rs.addMouseMotionListener(listener);
	} catch (Exception e) {
		System.out.println("Error!");
	}
    }

What if you added the mouse listener before calling the applet's init() and start() methods. I don't think it really should matter but I don't know that much about applets so who knows.

I asked at Moparisthebest, and it seems that I needed to add the MouseListener to the Canvas by

rs.getComponentAt(1, 1).addMouseListener(listener);[code]
however, rs.getComponentAt(1, 1) keeps returning null, so I need some help fixing this =|

Well upon checking the API I don't see any getComponent() method in the Applet class that takes two arguments.

Applet API: http://java.sun.com/javase/6/docs/api/java/applet/Applet.html

It does however inherit a getComponent() method that takes one argument (link), perhaps try that instead.

That fixed it

Now I've gotta deal with getting the image from the graphic, adding my mouse to the image, and a whole lotta other shit.

Hopefully it won't be too annoying xD
