Re: Another dumb memory question

This code will add a new object (a MouseAdapter instance) each time a
new MouseListener is added. (Each time addMouseListener() is called,
not each time mouseClicked() is called.) And of course you want one
instance for each call to addMouseListener(). No memory issue.
