How can you get the public variables from object that extends JLabel?

Question

I'm using the mouseClickedListener method e.getComponent(); to get the component that is clicked on the sceen. The component i clicked is type "object" and extends a jlabel, and i really need to acces a variable from it. Heres the code i'm using-
MouseListener listenerDown=new java.awt.event.MouseListener() {
        public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e){
            paintAll();
            mX=e.getX();
            mY=e.getY();
        public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
            Component c = e.getComponent();
            drawResizeBox(c);
            selected=c;
        public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {
        public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {
        public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {

Well see the problem is i have an array of 200 objects.What does that have to do with anything? And if it does, why isn't it in the code you posted?
I dont understand what you mean in your "Edit..." part. could you show some code/ explain farther? sorry if its a dumb question I'm still a bit of a novice at java.Yeah.
object yuck = (object) e.getComponent(); // That's a cast.
boolean yucksR = yuck.r; // Get the "r" variable from the object.
