[X] My Assistant

I think I'm trying to run before I can walk and that the code might be "messy" but please help.
This is for a test game I'm making (2D click shooting).
How do I use the MouseListener method to get the X and Y coordinates of the location clicked and draw a line from another location to that point?

CODE

public boolean shot;
public boolean MouseClicked(MouseEvent e){
      shot=true;
      xmissile=e.getX();
      ymissile=e.getY();
      return true;
  }
  public void paint(Graphics g) {
if(shot==true){
//soldierpos[0] is X coordinate of soldier
//soldierpos[1] is Y coordinate of soldier
        g.drawLine(soldierpos[0],soldierpos[1],xmissile,ymissile);
    }

It doesn't seem to work. In the end though, I wish to make it fire a missile at an angle determined by mouse click in a straight line. How would I go about doing that?

Thanks for the help!
