Hi there,

How do I fix this:

static String propertyName = ""; //<<this is set in another method
private static void setProperty(String property, Object o){...}
JTextField textField = new JTextField();
 textField.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
                  {
                     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
                     {
                       setProperty(propertyName, getText());  //<<<< The
compiler doesn't like the call to getText()
                     }
                  });

What do I have to change to access the getText() method of JTextField?
I've tried: this.getText() and JTextField.this.getText()
Neither one works.

Please advise,

Alan
