java - count button clicks -

i want count number of times button clicked using gui.

i did code:

private void jbutton1actionperformed(java.awt.event.actionevent evt) { int clicked = 0; clicked++; system.out.println(clicked); }

but showing output "1", each time click button.

i want every time click button show me count.

ex: if click button 2 times should give me output of "2".

you resetting counter every time click, because have defined variable within action method. seek not doing that.

int clicked = 0; // move outside private void jbutton1actionperformed(java.awt.event.actionevent evt) { // int clicked = 0; -- resets 0 each time clicked++; system.out.println(clicked); }

java swing jbutton
