Hi everybody,

I'm trying to put a custom graphic into a JPanel, so that it is a component
of the Panel and gets painted after the Panel.

The JPanel is the field for a game and the custom graphic is a gaming piece.

public class SchiffeversenkenApplet extends JApplet
{
    public void init()
    {
        // this test is working properly:
        JButton testbutton = new JButton("Hallo");
        // localPlayer.getField() returns the game-field
        // add button to game-field
        localPlayer.getField().add(testbutton);

        // this is not working:
        // create gamingpiece
        Gamingpiece schiffsteil = new Gamingpiece(localPlayer.getField());
        localPlayer.getField().add(schiffsteil);

        // add game-field to contentPane
        Container contentPane = getContentPane();
        contentPane.add(localPlayer.getField());
    }
}

// tried to extend Gamingpiece from JPanel and JLabel as mentioned in
java.sun.com tutorial
class Gamingpiece extends JLabel
{
    public void paintComponent(Graphics g)
    {
        super.paintComponent(g);
        g.setColor(Color.black);
        g.fillOval(100, 100, 20, 20);
    }

    // also tried this instead of adding the gamingpiece from the main
method:
    public Schiffsteil2(Gamingpiece spielfeld)
    {
        spielfeld.add(this);
    }
..
}


I just can't get the gaming-piece to be painted, I'd be greatful for any
hints or advices.

Cheers,
Frauke
