Это мое текущее меню:

public class DrawPolygons
{
    public static void main (String[] args) throws FileNotFoundException
    {

        /**
         *   Menu - file reader option
         */

        JMenuBar menuBar;
        JMenu menu;
        JMenuItem menuItem;

        //  Create the menu bar.
        menuBar = new JMenuBar();

        //  Build the first menu.
        menu = new JMenu("File");
        menu.setMnemonic(KeyEvent.VK_F);
        menu.getAccessibleContext().setAccessibleDescription("I have items");
        menuBar.add(menu);

        //  a group of JMenuItems
        menuItem = new JMenuItem("Load",KeyEvent.VK_T);
        menuItem.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_1, ActionEvent.ALT_MASK));
        menuItem.getAccessibleContext().setAccessibleDescription("Load your old polygons");
        menu.add(menuItem);

        menuItem = new JMenuItem("Save",KeyEvent.VK_U);
        menuItem.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_2, ActionEvent.ALT_MASK));
        menuItem.getAccessibleContext().setAccessibleDescription("Save the contents of your polygons");
        menu.add(menuItem);

        // attaching the menu to the frame
        JFrame frame = new JFrame("Draw polygons");
        frame.setJMenuBar(menuBar);
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        frame.setContentPane(new DrawingPanel());
        frame.pack();
        frame.setVisible(true);

    }

}

У него есть два вариантаLoad а также .Save

Теперь, как я могу прикрепитьJFileChooser кactionPerformed метод, здесь:

/**
 * Main class
 * @author X2

class DrawingPanel extends JPanel implements MouseListener, MouseMotionListener ,KeyListener
{



    // code
    // code
    // and more code


    static DrawingPanel app ;  
    private static final Dimension MIN_DIM = new Dimension(300, 300);
    private static final Dimension PREF_DIM = new Dimension(500, 500);

    public Dimension getMinimumSize() { return MIN_DIM; }
    public Dimension getPreferredSize() { return PREF_DIM; }

    JMenuItem open, save;  
    JTextArea textArea ;  
    JFileChooser chooser ;  
    FileInputStream fis ;  
    BufferedReader br ;  
    FileOutputStream fos ;  
    BufferedWriter bwriter ;  

    public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent event )    
    {  
        Object obj = event.getSource() ;  
        chooser = new JFileChooser() ;  
        if ( chooser.showOpenDialog( app ) ==  JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION )  
        if ( obj == open )   
        {  
            try  
            {  
                fis = new FileInputStream(   
                      chooser.getSelectedFile() ) ;  
                br  = new BufferedReader(   
                      new InputStreamReader( fis ) ) ;  
                String read ;  
                StringBuffer text = new StringBuffer() ;  
                while( ( read = br.readLine() ) != null )   
                {  
                   text.append( read ).append( "\n" ) ;  
                }  
                textArea.setText( text.toString() ) ;  
            }  
            catch( IOException e )   
            {  
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog( this , "Error in File Operation" 
                        ,"Error in File Operation" ,JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE) ;  
            }  
        }  
    }  



    /**

    DrawingPanel()
    {
        super();
        addMouseListener(this);
        addMouseMotionListener(this);
        addKeyListener(this);
        setFocusable(true);
        requestFocusInWindow();
    }


    // a lot of code more
    // and more

"новый» код:

        frame.setContentPane(new DrawingPanel());

        frame.pack();
        frame.setVisible(true);
    }

}

Проблема, теперь, когда я ударилLoad ПодFile , ничего не происходит . Зачем ?

Я добавил слушателя, но ничего.
