JLayeredPane not recieving mouse Events.

Question

When I try to add a MouseListener to a JLayeredPane, it does not pick up the mouse events at all. Or when I even try to add it to the only JPanel I added to the LayeredPane, still no mouse events. I never set the glassPane to visible, so I have no idea why the mouse events aren't going through.

Answer 1

Your code won't compile. For one the layered constructor is within your MouseAdapter anonymous class. You are far better off posting compilable code here.
edit: also, you are not overriding MouseAdapter methods. That would help get your code to work.
Try compiling with an @Override annotation to see what I mean:
  private MouseAdapter exitListener = new MouseAdapter()
    @Override
    public void MousePressed(MouseEvent e) // does this compile?  MousePressed != mousePressed
      System.out.print("yrs");
  }capitalization matters:
MousePressed != mousePressed
