expanding JFrame in Java

Question

I tried to resize the window of my JFrame to automatically fit my screen upon running using the following code:

private void makeFrameFullSize(JFrame aFrame)
{
 Dimension screenSize = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getScreenSize();
 aFrame.setSize(screenSize.width, screenSize.height);
}

However, it did not work. how do I automatically expand the JFrame to fit my size of the screen in NetBeans

Try something like this:

private void makeFrameFullSize(JFrame aFrame)
{
   int state = aFrame.getExtendedState();
   aFrame.setExtendedState(stats | Frame.MAXIMIZED_BOTH);
}

See: https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/awt/Frame.html#setExtendedState-int-
