java - JMenuBar cannot find symbol error -


i have problem trying implement jmenubar keep getting cannot find symbol error. have jframe in separate class along main method , jframe instatiates object of mainpanel class. missing here? appreciated, thank you!

the full error message reads

cannot find symbol

symbol: method setjmenubar (jmenubar)

location: class mainpanel

public class mainpanel extends jpanel {  //whole bunch of code  jmenubar menubar; jmenu archive;   public uppgift2panel(){      //whole bunch of code       menubar = new jmenubar();     archive = new jmenu();     menubar.add(archive);      setjmenubar(menubar);      //whole bunch of code      }  } 

a jpanel doesn't have setjmenubar(...) method.

you add menubar frame using setjmenubar(...) method of jframe.
