There is a default implementation of WindowListener called WindowAdapter which allows you to override the methods you really want to use

        mainFrame.addWindowListener(new WindowListener() {
    
            @Override
            public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
                if (JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(mainFrame, "Are you sure you want to quit?", "Confirm exit.", JOptionPane.OK_OPTION, 0, new ImageIcon("")) != 0) {
                    return;
                }
                System.exit(-1);
            }
    
            @Override 
            public void windowOpened(WindowEvent e) {}
    
            @Override 
            public void windowClosed(WindowEvent e) {}
    
            @Override 
            public void windowIconified(WindowEvent e) {}
    
            @Override 
            public void windowDeiconified(WindowEvent e) {}
    
            @Override 
            public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {}
    
            @Override 
            public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e) {}
    
        });
    

    There is my code, is it possible since I only use the windowClosing method to remove all the other in my case, useless methods so it takes less space?

    Example

        mainFrame.addWindowListener(new WindowListener() {
    
            @Override
            public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) {
                if (JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(mainFrame, "Are you sure you want to quit?", "Confirm exit.", JOptionPane.OK_OPTION, 0, new ImageIcon("")) != 0) {
                    return;
                }
                System.exit(-1);
            }
    
        });
    

    Is it possible?
