Why won't GUI display correctly ?? --URGENT--

Question

Hi,
I am copying the code from my book. For some reason the color doesn't work when I copy+paste teh code into Eclipse. Am I doing something wrong or do I have to enable something in Eclipse options??? I keep getting 2 windows WITH NO TXT and NO COLOR. Here is the code:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*; //needed for the Color class
public class SecondWindow extends JFrame
    public static final int WIDTH = 200;
    public static final int HEIGHT = 200;
    public SecondWindow( )
        super( );
        setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
        Container contentPane = getContentPane( );
        JLabel label = new JLabel("Now available in color!");
        contentPane.add(label);
        setTitle("Second Window");
        contentPane.setBackground(Color.BLUE);
        addWindowListener(new WindowDestroyer( ));
    public SecondWindow(Color customColor)
        super( );
        setSize(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
        Container contentPane = getContentPane( );
        JLabel label = new JLabel("Now available in color!");
        contentPane.add(label);
        setTitle("Second Window");
        contentPane.setBackground(customColor);
        addWindowListener(new WindowDestroyer( ));
}and the driver file
import java.awt.*; //for the class Color used in an argument.
public class SecondWindowDemo
     Creates and displays two windows of the class SecondWindow.
    public static void main(String[] args)
        SecondWindow window1 = new SecondWindow( );
        window1.setVisible(true);
        SecondWindow window2 = new SecondWindow(Color.PINK);
        window2.setVisible(true);
}WINDOWS Destroyer Class
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
If you register an object of this class as a listener to any
object of the class JFrame, then if the user clicks the
close-window button in the JFrame, the object of this class
will end the program and close the JFrame.
public class WindowDestroyer extends WindowAdapter
    public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e)
        System.exit(0);

Well I read the forum rules and it doesn't say
anything about not using URGENT. Sounds like you are
going based on convention.Consider basic good manners. You have just approached a bunch of strangers and asked them for their help, for free. By telling us it's urgent, you're really saying "my problem is more important than these other people asking for help", which is only true as far as you're concerned. Everyone considers their own problem more important.
The forum rules may not say anything about not using "URGENT", but since the people answering the questions have the power to do so or not, you just have to abide by what they say. Like it or lump it, basically. Or cough up some hard currency
