Add the selected item of a popup menu to a text field which is in same form

How to add the selected item of a popup menu to a text field which is in same form?

I have created a form using Swing. I am posting the code below. I want the selected item of my pop-up menu to be added to a text field. As I am new to the topic. Please help me out.

My objective is to store jmenuitem1 in textfield1 when I'll select it.

 public class XXX extends javax.swing.JFrame {

    public XXX() {
        initComponents();
    }

    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")

    private void initComponents() {

        jPopupMenu1 = new javax.swing.JPopupMenu();
        John = new javax.swing.JMenuItem();
        Smith = new javax.swing.JMenuItem();
        Jacob = new javax.swing.JMenuItem();
        jLabel1 = new javax.swing.JLabel();
        jTextField1 = new javax.swing.JTextField();
        jLabel2 = new javax.swing.JLabel();
        jTextField2 = new javax.swing.JTextField();

        John.setText("jMenuItem1");
        John.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
                JohnActionPerformed(evt);
            }
        });
        jPopupMenu1.add(John);

        Smith.setText("jMenuItem2");
        jPopupMenu1.add(Smith);

        Jacob.setText("jMenuItem3");
        jPopupMenu1.add(Jacob);

        setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

        jLabel1.setText("Name");

        jTextField1.addMouseListener(new java.awt.event.MouseAdapter() {
            public void mouseReleased(java.awt.event.MouseEvent evt) {
                jTextField1MouseReleased(evt);
            }
        });
        jTextField1.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
            public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
                jTextField1ActionPerformed(evt);
            }
        });

        jLabel2.setText("CLASS");

You need to use setText() method of JTextField. And getSource() of ActionEvent for determine selected JMenuItem`.

You can store text of your JMenuItem in next way:

private void JohnActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
    JMenuItem source = (JMenuItem) evt.getSource();
    jTextField1.setText(source.getText());
}

If you need to store object(JMenuItem), you need to extends JTextField with your implementation.
