I followed an example someone posted on another question for key bindings to control an object. For the sake of simplicity all it is controlling is printing "woo" when VK_UP is pressed but it doesn't do that.
some code from here that I still can't manage to get working.
Heres the main
import javax.swing.*;
@SuppressWarnings("serial")
public class apples extends JFrame {
static boolean running;
public static void main(String[] args){
JFrame f = new JFrame();
Peach p = new Peach();
f.getContentPane().add(new test());
f.add(new test());
f.add(p);
f.setSize(400,250);
f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
f.setVisible(true);
p.run();
}
}
and here is the key binding stuff
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;
import javax.swing.*;

public class Peach extends JPanel {
public void paint(Graphics g){

super.paintComponent(g);
this.setBackground(Color.WHITE);

g.fillOval(x, y, br, br);
g.drawString("Sort of Pong?", 157, 20);
g.setColor(Color.BLACK);
g.fillRect(paddlex, paddley, psizex, psizey);
//g.setColor(new Color(51, 255, 204));
//g.fillRect(100, 100, 80, 100);
repaint();
