How to handle the exception in AWT-EventQueue-0?

843806Jan 22 2008 — edited Jan 22 2008
This is my code:
import javax.swing.JFrame;

public class MainFrame extends JFrame {
	public MainFrame(){
		init();
	}
	
	public void init(){
		setSize(100,100);
	}
}


import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;

import javax.swing.JButton;

public class SubFrame extends MainFrame implements ActionListener{
	private JButton button1 = null;
	public SubFrame(){
		super();
		
	}
	public void init(){
		super.init();
		button1 = new JButton("button1");
		add(button1);
		button1.addActionListener(this);
	}
	public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		button1.setEnabled(false);
	}
	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		(new SubFrame()).setVisible(true);
	}

}
When I click the button, this exception will be thrown:
