No. The instance variable of the World class are:
public class World<T>
{
private Grid<T> gr;
private Set<String> occupantClassNames;
private Set<String> gridClassNames;
private String message;
private JFrame frame;
private static Random generator = new Random();
private static final int DEFAULT_ROWS = 10;
private static final int DEFAULT_COLS = 10;
...
}
So in fact World is not a JFrame, but in fact has one, which is inaccessible because it's private. You could, however, create your own world class that merely changes the private JFrame to a protected JFrame, and then extend that. You could then access the JFrame and add a mouse Listener by using
WorldVariableName.frame.addMouseListener(new listener).
P.S. I've always thought it better to create a separate private MouseListener class in the main class rather than implementing MouseListener in the main class.
