I am trying to draw a simple rectangle but I think the paintComponent method is not getting called.
Here is the code for the class with main method:
package painting;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Painting {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame jf;
jf = new JFrame("JUST DRAW A RECTANGLE");
jf.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
jf.setLayout(null);
jf.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
jf.setSize(600,600);
jf.setVisible(true);
Mainting maint = new Mainting();
jf.add(maint);
}
}
and the class with paintComponent()
package painting;
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Mainting extends JPanel {
@Override
public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
{
super.paintComponent(g);
g.drawRect(0, 0 , 200, 200);
System.out.println("haha");
g.setColor(Color.red);
}
}
What is the problem here, I cannot figure out...

While the answers already provided might have resulted in the rectangle appearing, the approach was less than optimal. This example aims to show a better approach. Read the comments in the code for details.
Note that Swing/AWT GUIs should be started on the EDT. This is left as an exercise for the reader.
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class Painting {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame jf = new JFrame("JUST DRAW A RECTANGLE");
jf.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
// null layouts cause more problems than they solve. DO NOT USE!
//jf.setLayout(null);
jf.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
/* if components return a sensible preferred size,
it's better to add them, then pack */
//jf.setSize(600, 600);
//jf.setVisible(true); // as mentioned, this should be last
Mainting maint = new Mainting();
jf.add(maint);
jf.pack(); // makes the GUI the size it NEEDS to be
jf.setVisible(true);
}
}
class Mainting extends JPanel {
@Override
public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
g.setColor(Color.RED);
g.drawRect(10, 10, 200, 200);
System.out.println("paintComponent called");
/* This does nothing useful, since nothing is painted
before the Graphics instance goes out of scope! */
//g.setColor(Color.red);
}
@Override
public Dimension getPreferredSize() {
// Provide hints to the layout manager!
return new Dimension(220, 220);
}
}
