Hi Paul,

One more interesting fact, if I repaint() the whole frame as a final step in
the construction it sets the button's font to BOLD...

I have no idea why it is running that way...

Here is the button's creation code:

//SNIPPET 1 - abstract button which handles it's own action event
abstract public class MyAbstractButton extends JButton implements
ActionListener{
    public MyAbstractButton() {
        super();
        addActionListener(this);
    }

    public MyAbstractButton(String text) {
        this();
        setText(text);
    }

    abstract public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e);
}

//------------------------

//SNIPPET 2 - adding an instance of MyAbstractButton to a container
JPanel south = new JPanel(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.CENTER, 10, 10));
south.add(new MyAbstractButton("Add Message") {
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
        addMessage();
    }
});

//-----------------------  END

What do you think? I believe that you will conclude that this is a normal
implementation of buttons...

:o)

Waiting for your reply.
David Treves.
