How to display right-click menu for JPanel?

Question

Hi...
I am developing an application to display a JWindow in the screen along with a TrayIcon in the system-tray area. There should be a right-click menu in both the tray icon and JWindow for further options.
I am able to create a JPopupMenu for tray icon. On right-clicking on the tray icon, the menu is being displayed. But not able to do the same for the JWindow. I am able to capture the right-click mouse event, but not able to display the menu.
This is how I am displaying the menu for the tray icon
PopupMenu  popupmenu = new PopupMenu();
MenuItem  menuitem1 = new MenuItem("Exit");
menuitem1.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent exx)
        System.exit(0);
popupmenu.add(menuitem1);
trayicon = new TrayIcon(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage("./images/Icon.gif"),"Right-click for more options",popupmenu);For displaying the menu in the JPanel, I am using the following snippet...
    public class MyMouseListener extends MouseAdapter
        public class MyMouseListener() {}
        @Override
        public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)
            if (e.getButton() == MouseEvent.BUTTON3)
               System.out.println("Clicked");
               jp.setComponentPopupMenu(popupmenu);
    }Can anyone please help me to do this??
Thanks in Advance...

Hi,
PFA the code I am using...
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
public class DisplayStrip extends JWindow implements MouseListener, MouseMotionListener
     Point location;
     MouseEvent pressed;
    JPanel jp ;
    JLabel jl ;
    JPopupMenu popupmenu ;
     public DisplayStrip()
          addMouseListener( this );
          addMouseMotionListener( this );
     public void mousePressed(MouseEvent me)
          pressed = me;
     public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {}
     public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {}
     public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent me)
          location = getLocation(location);
          int x = location.x - pressed.getX() + me.getX();
          int y = location.y - pressed.getY() + me.getY();
          setLocation(x, y);
     public void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {}
     public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {}
     public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {}
     public void DisplayStripRun()
          setSize(100, 10);
          setAlwaysOnTop(true);
        jp = new JPanel();
          jp.setBackground(Color.GREEN);
          jp.addMouseListener(new MyMouseListener());
          jl = new JLabel();
          jl.setText("Right-click Here");
          jp.add(jl);
          add(jp);
          setVisible(true);
          pack();
          popupmenu = new JPopupMenu();
          JMenuItem menuitem = new JMenuItem("Exit");
          menuitem.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
               public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent exx)
                    System.exit(0);
          popupmenu.add(menuitem);
     public static void main(String args[])
          DisplayStrip ds = new DisplayStrip();
          ds.DisplayStripRun();
    public class MyMouseListener extends MouseAdapter
        //public class MyMouseListener() {}
        @Override
        public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e)
            if (e.getButton() == MouseEvent.BUTTON3)
               System.out.println("Right clicked");
               jp.setComponentPopupMenu(popupmenu);
               popupmenu.setVisible(true);
}
