Here is the short Demo of how you can achieve this task..
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
class MouseClickOnJLabel extends JFrame
{
public void createAndShowGUI()
{
JLabel label = new JLabel("Double Click on me!!");
getContentPane().setLayout(new FlowLayout());
getContentPane().add(label);
label.addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter()
{
public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent evt)
{
int count = evt.getClickCount();
if (count == 2)
{
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(MouseClickOnJLabel.this,"You double clicked on JLabel","Information",JOptionPane.INFORMATION_MESSAGE);
}
}
});
setSize(300,200);
setLocationRelativeTo(null);
setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String[] args)
{
SwingUtilities.invokeLater( new Runnable()
{
public void run()
{
MouseClickOnJLabel moj = new MouseClickOnJLabel();
moj.createAndShowGUI();
}
});
}
}
