Rubberband source code?

I have been looking all over the Internet for this.

Can someone please provide or point to some sample
source code implementing the classical rubberband
rectangular selection??

In fact, since this seems so hard to find, I am
willing to compromise. I only need to capture the
two endpoints: where the user originally clicked
and where the mouse was released. That's all I need
for my prototype, and I can worry about the visual
feedback (the actual XOR rubberband) later.
I very, very much appreciate any help.

how about a MouseInputListener which makes appropriate
use of mousePressed(), mouseReleased(), and mouseClicked()
and getPoint()?

Thanks a lot, Robert. That's exactly what I needed.

There is one issue with all those Java classes, interfaces,
packages, etc. in which the problem is NOT finding a needle in the
proverbial haystack, but determining whether you are looking in the
right haystack at all. :-)

two different solutions, meant to exemplify the "state" design
pattern.
