You can't.  There is no guaranteed correspondence between repaint()
calls and paintComponent() calls.  Each repaint() call could result in
zero, one, or many paintComponent() calls.  And each paintComponent()
call could be the result of one or many repaint calls, or it could be
the result of some event other than a repaint call.
