identifying double click in java

I want to know how can we perform action when mouse is double clicked in a component.


public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent event)
{
  if (event.getClickCount() == 2 && event.getButton() == MouseEvent.BUTTON1) {
    System.out.println("double clicked");
  }
}

Assuming you mean in Swing, assign a MouseListener to your Component:

addMouseListener(new MouseAdapter(){
    @Override
    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e){
        if(e.getClickCount()==2){
            // your code here
        }
    }
});
