Where are you calling the run method from -- or, are you even calling it?

hi danpost I had it but had it outside of the main method. the thing when I had it and the code above in the main method, was getting a set of errors and still getting the error, hence the reason why i remove it from the main method and just put the codes in the main method.

         }
you see the errors that I am getting, so I am confused it is to be in the main method and another thing when I took it out of the main methods all the errors are gone so i am doing something wrong they

I tested it and the frame appeared for me. It was mostly just the title bar with the 3 buttons (hide/show, minimize/maximize and close). The content frame was just a thin black line as there was zero content. At any rate, the code, lines 4 thru 7, works.

What IDE are you using? What are you wanting to have in your "blank frame"?

You have a constructor to the class stuck in there where it doesn't belong and the try-catch codes are not within a declared method block.
