java - in the mouse click method when i call the method get X() and get Y() it return -8 regardless the position -

public void mouseclicked(mouseevent e) {         system.out.println("mouse click working");         system.out.println(getx());         system.out.println(gety());      } 

you're calling getx() , gety() on containing class, not on mouseevent.

e.g. need

e.getx();
