Hi All,
I have a JFrame on which 4 JSplitPanes are nested. Each JSplitPane
other than the last one contains a JPanel and a nested JSplitPane. The
last one contains two JPanels. I need to capture the event

1. <software> An occurrence or happening of significance to a
	task or program, such as the completion of an asynchronous
	input/output operation.  A task may wait for an event or any
	of a set of events or it may (request to) receive asynchronous
	notification (a {signal} or {interrupt}) that the event has
	occurred.

	See also {event-driven}.

	2. <data> A transaction or other activity that affects the
	records in a file.

when the
divider of JSplitPane is moved so that make some modification in the
contianed JPanel. Please advise on how this can be achieved.

Thanks in advance

Proper use of layout management

1. Corporate power elites distinguished primarily by their
	distance from actual productive work and their chronic failure
	to manage (see also {suit}).  Spoken derisively, as in
	"*Management* decided that ...".

	2. Mythically, a vast bureaucracy responsible for all the
	world's minor irritations.  Hackers' satirical public notices
	are often signed "The Mgt"; this derives from the
	"Illuminatus!" novels.

should make it unnecessary for you to
care when a user moves a divider.

You might be able to add a ComponentListener on your panels to detect
when they are resized. The obvious trouble with that, however, is that
moving the divider on any pane will probably cause some or all of the
others to get resized, thereby firing their own listeners.

You could also add a PropertyChangeListener to each split

<programming> A program like {Unix}'s "split" which breaks an
	input file into parts, usually of a pre-set size, e.g. the
	maximum size that can fit on a {floppy}.  The parts can then
	be assembled with a {dechunker}, which is usually just the
	chunker in a different mode.

pane to detect
changes in the JSplitPane.DIVIDER_LOCATION_PROPERTY.
