problem with JPanel interface

[someone]

I`m trying to add an MouseListener to a JPanel

Here is the Code:

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;

public class CalPanel extends JPanel implements MouseEvent
{
// somecode
}

but BlueJ says:

"interface expected here"

And highlights the header

any thoughts?

I'm not sure what you mean by "header", but I think I get what yuo
mean.

You don't want to implement MouseEvent. You want to implement
MouseListener. MouseEvent is a concrete class, not an interface, so
you can't implement it.

s/Event/Listener/

public class CalPanel extends JPanel implements MouseEvent

MouseEvent is not the name of an interface.
MouseMotionListener and MouseListener are.

Guess because MouseEvent is not an interface. You want implement an
interface not a class.

Maybe this is a better error messge "The type MouseEvent cannot be a
superinterface of CalPanel; a superinterface must be an interface'
