I had no problem with your example as long
as the "ExitAction" class was declared
in its own file as (_public_ for emphasis here):

   _public_ class ExitAction extends ... {
     ...
   }

The Designer only balks when you omit the _public_
modifier.

Again, I tested this out in JBuilder X and it does work.
