如何将非最终变量传递给匿名内部 class？

Question

I have these lines of code. I know you can not pass a non final variable to an inner class but I need to pass the variable i to the anonymous inner class to be used as a seatingID. Can you suggest ways of doing that?

JButton [] seats = new JButton [40]; //creating a pointer to the buttonsArray
for (int i = 0; i < 40; i++)
{
    seats[i] = new JButton();//creating the buttons
    seats[i].setPreferredSize(new Dimension(50,25));//button width
    panel4seating.add(seats[i]);//adding the buttons to the panels

    seats[i].addActionListener(new ActionListener()
    {  //anonymous inner class
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
        {  
            String firstName = (String)JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter First Name");
            String lastName = (String)JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Last Name");

            sw101.AddPassenger(firstName, lastName, seatingID);
        }
    });
}

Answer 1

The simple way is to create a local final variable and initialize it with the value of the loop variable; eg

    JButton [] seats = new JButton [40]; //creating a pointer to the buttonsArray
    for (int i = 0; i < 40; i++)
    {
        seats[i] = new JButton();//creating the buttons
        seats[i].setPreferredSize(new Dimension(50,25));//button width
        panel4seating.add(seats[i]);//adding the buttons to the panels
        final int ii = i;  // Create a local final variable ...
        seats[i].addActionListener(new ActionListener()
         {  //anonymous inner class
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt)
            {  
                String firstName = (String)JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter First Name");
                String lastName = (String)JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter Last Name");

                sw101.AddPassenger(firstName, lastName, ii);
            }
         });
    }

You can't directly, but you can make a (static private) subclass of ActionListener that takes a seatingID in its constructor.

Then rather than

seats[i].addActionListener(new ActionListener() { ... });

you'd have

seats[i].addActionListener(new MySpecialActionListener(i));

[Edit] Actually, there's so much else wrong with your code that I'm not really sure that this advice is good. How about presenting code that would compile.
