import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class AlertFrame extends JFrame {
String s_alert[] ={"WARNIGNS","CAUTIONS","NOTES"};
JComboBox CBweapon;
String wpText;
public AlertFrame() {
super("Alerts");
Container contentPane = getContentPane();
contentPane.setLayout(null);
setSize(600,600);
CBweapon = new JComboBox();
for (int i=0;i<s_weapon.length;i++) {
CBweapon.addItem (s_weapon);
contentPane.add(CBweapon);
CBweapon.setActionCommand("");
//set position for components
CBweapon.setBounds(370 + insets.left,295+ insets.top, 150,30);
System.out.println(getit()); //calling getit() function
//this function will be return a String of JcomboBOx value if click on each item of combobox
private String getit(){
CBweapon.addActionListener( new ActionListener (){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
wpText = (String)CBweapon.getSelectedItem() ;
return wpText;
public static void main(String args[]) {
AlertFrame af = new AlertFrame();
af.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
System.exit(0);
**I have no errors on compile or run, but it didn't return a string value to System.out.println(getit());
It maybe because of the "void" of public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
wpText = (String)CBweapon.getSelectedItem() ;
Please help me
