A JFrame is a top-level window with a title and a border. A JPanel provides general-purpose containers for lightweight components, such as textfields, buttons and more.

You will need to use both JFrame and JPanel, you create the JFrame and then add a Panel, wich will contain your textfield:

JFrame frame = new JFrame("Title for your window");

JPanel panel = new JPanel();
JLabel label = new JLabel("Your text here");

panel.add(label);

frame.add(panel);
frame.setVisible(true);
