using onAction method calls with indirectly-related objects

[Jason S]

I went to add menus today to one of my JPanels that is constructed using JavaBuilders, and the PDF guide recommends using Actions.

Except my class looks like this:

public class MyView
{
  final private JPanel panel = new JPanel();

  MyView(...)
  {
     ...
     SwingJavaBuilder.build(panel, yaml, resource);
  }
  public void onFoo() { ... }
}

So SwingJavaBuilder gets to do its magic on MyView.panel, but when it goes to find an action method onFoo(), it's looking in the wrong place.

Is there a way to tell it to build the GUI using MyView.panel but look for methods with MyView.this?

Nope. The underlying assumption always was that the object that builds itself contains all the methods that it refers to.
