You are declaring button1 in main method so you can not access it in actionPerform. You should make it global in class.

 JButton button1;
 public static void main(String[] args) {

    JFrame calcFrame = new JFrame();

    calcFrame.setSize(100, 100);
    calcFrame.setVisible(true);

    button1 = new JButton("1");
    button1.addActionListener(this);

    calcFrame.add(button1);
}

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
    if(e.getSource() == button1)
}
