another way as implementing inner ActionListener (with setActionCommand(String actionCommand)
) for whole JMenu is wrote java.swing.Action for each of JMenuItem
or implements EventHandler (seems like as valid for all Listeners
that I tried)
example about JButtons and with implemented ActionListener
and EventHandler
(both Listeners firing events)
EDIT: EventHandler
os too hacky, because in Swing aren’t another direct method how to call code_block by String value
