    Default Re: Swin/Awt Code Question

    The way this question is phrased, 'this' could be anything, thus add is not defined so the question lacks context to answer definitively. Presuming 'this' is an instance of a class that extends Container, see
    Container (Java Platform SE 6)
    and
    Trail: Creating a GUI With JFC/Swing (The Java™ Tutorials)
