Swing/AWT/SWT :: Create A Sub Menu For Every List Item In A Jlist
Oct 8, 2014
I would like to create a sub menu for every list item in a Jlist. I need the UI like avast interface. If we hover over an list item, its sub menu should be shown. I attempted to put an sub menu but didn't work. Is this possible in Swing?

New to Java Swing. What I am trying to achieve here is to create an instance of the class used to populate the DefaultListModel when a JList item is selected. All examples I have seen show how to return the text displayed in the JList which really is of no practical use.
I have achieved what I want to achieve in that I am successfuly creating the selected object within my ListCellRenderer class.
For the purpose of testing I am using a call to the JOptionPane.showMessageDialog method to display the id of the selected object.
So, I launch the JFrame, the JList is populated, I select an item from the JList and the id value is displayed in the prompt. All this works fine except for one thing.
When I click OK on the JOptionPane.showMessageDialog prompt, the prompt disappears and reappears. The system seems to be in a loop. It is behaving as if the change or click event handler on the JList keeps firing.
This happens even without the creation of the object:
BookEntry be = (BookEntry)list.getModel().getElementAt(list.getSelectedIndex());
I have scoured the code and object properties to see if I can figure out where this behaviour is coming from without success.
All there is in the JFrame design view is a single JList with a variable name of "list". Everything else is in code as below:
Here is the .java code. Its not that complex
import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.Component;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JList;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import javax.swing.ListCellRenderer;
import javax.swing.DefaultListModel;
public class NewJFrame3 extends javax.swing.JFrame {
[Code] .....

is there a good way to change the color of a JList item that isn't selected? I'm throwing my hand at building a client/server chat app and on the client side, I need to highlight the name of the person (which is in a JList) who has sent a message to the client GUI.

I have a combobox with this PopupMenuListener. All works fine, except that the popupMenuWillBecomeInvisible method does not capture the selection made and neither does it show the selection.
PopupMenuListener pmlMqMessagePurged = new PopupMenuListener() {
@SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
public void popupMenuWillBecomeVisible(PopupMenuEvent arg0) {
try {
JdbcSqlServerDataSource ds = new JdbcSqlServerDataSource(
DbConnectionURL.UToolDbHostName, 0,
[Code] .....
The popupMenuWillBecomeInvisible does fire but the System.out.println() returns 'nul'l as answer to the value i have selected from the combobox.

I am trying to create a GUI interface in swing which consists of four classes: a GUI class, which creates a main JPanel, a label, and a JList, which it takes from the second class, a MovesList class that contains a JList and the stuff needed to interface with it. It also has a main class, which basically just creates an object of the GUI class for the main window, and an Other class from which I would like to be able to add an item to the JList. I created methods in the MovesList class to get each component (like getMoveslist, or getMovesListScrollPane), which I then used to create the JList in the GUI class. I also created an addMove method so that I can add an item to the JList from any class through a MovesList object. However, this addMove method only works when called from the GUI or MovesList classes -- it does nothing when I collect from the Other class.
Here is my code:
//Main class
public class TestProject {
public static void main(String[] args) {
GUI mainWindow = new GUI();
mainWindow.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
[Code] ....
When I run this code, I get a window with a JLabel that says "Moves," and a JList that contains five elements -- test 1-test 5, but not a sixth "test from other class." ( using the add move method ) However, when I click on the window, the addMove method is also called, and successfully adds "test 6" to the list.

I have a question and wasn't able to find what I needed through the search. I am currently using Netbeans 8.0 and working on a desktop app. I have a main GUI file where I am going to add a menu item that can be clicked to open up an "About" Dialog box. The problem is, I don't know how to do this
The file are...
MainGui.java
About.java
How would I go about opening the About.java when clicking on a menu item? I tried using...
new About();
About.setVisible(true);
But this just gave a compilation error.

Write a program using switch statement to allow users to choose an item of a menu. For example, the menu looks like the following.
File menu
1. Open
2. Close
3. Save
4. Exit
Enter your choice:
If you type 1, then your program should print out "Open is selected" (double quotes not included).
Notice:
(1) Using Scanner to get user choice;
(2) If the number user input is not in {1,2,3,4}, your program should let user know that.
Here's what I have:
public static void main (String[] args) {
int user = 1
switch (1) {
case value: 1
System.out.println ("Open is selected");
[Code] .....

I'm trying to create a GUI java application.
I want a menu with buttons that looks like this:
Button 1: Start
Button 2: Help
Button 3: About Me
If you press one of the buttons you will get to another frame with new buttons, new labels and so on.
Next step for instance if you press button 1, I'd like my program to get this frame:
Different alternatives, and a text field with a button. One commando leads to one new JFrame with new buttons, text fields and so on.

red.add(0,"1");
red.add(1,"2");
red.add(2,"3");
//create abc bucket to red items.
LinkedList abcred= new LinkedList();
red.remove(0);
//So how to insert removed item into abc buckets (similar to stack data structure)
I want to remove all red items and after that add to "abcred" using one by one. So, how to do that?

This is supposed to be a method that adds stars after each item in the list.
Java Code:
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class ClientProgram {
public static void main(String[] args) {
ArrayList<String> list = new ArrayList<String>();
list.add("the");
[Code] ...
I'm guessing it's because list.size() changes, though but it should only find that value in the beginning, so it shouldn't be a problem?

I am trying to have a user select from a printed out array list, instead of having the user type in the "bill type" each time there is a bill to avoid user error as much as possible. For example I would like to have it print out like this:
"Select bill type from list:
1. Rent
2. Car
3. etc..."
and I would like the user to choose a number and not type in the "bill type". I don't want to use "Switch case" because it would need to be an expanding and I don't think "switch case" can do that.
Here is the code:
package homebudget;
class Spending
{
//Do i need a totalAmount variable?
String type;
double amount;
int year, month, day;
public Spending()
[Code] ....
case 2:
//Give option to enter a new expense or pick from list.
//How to do this? If Statement that doesn't list duplicates, or a while search?
resp = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the type of expense:");
type = resp;
resp = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Enter the amount of the expense:");
amount = Double.parseDouble(resp);

So for the last few weeks I have been working on a Java project for school. I see the light at the end of the tunnel, but I have run into some speed bumps with my main class. It was working fine, but I was pulling an all night and I deleted some of my code by mistake.Now I am not seeing what is exactly wrong. Anyways, the project was to create an address book complete with a menu system.
Here are all of my classes:
import java.util.ArrayList;
/**
* A model of an address book which keeps track of contacts.
* An address book object should keep track of the concept of a current contact (think index).
* You must use an ArrayList for your implementation.
*/
public class AddressBook {
Contact contact = new Contact();

I am currently writing a chess application in Java swing. For the GUI part, I have one MainWindow class, and one ChessBoard class. The MainWindow has a main panel, in which is contained 1) a panel containing the chessboard from the chessboard class (a grid layout array of 64 JLabels), 2) a JLabel status bar, and 3) a JList to hold the moves of the game. I have a movePiece method in the chessboard class, which I would like to add the move and question to the moves list, which is contained in the main window class.
However, since JList is some special type, I can't make it static ( that gives me an error ). I also tried creating a method in the main window class to add a move to the list, which I would then access via the chessboard class. However, I can't make the method static, because it is referencing a non-static variable ( the JList ), and since the Main window class already has an object of the chessboard class, trying to create a main window object in the chessboard class creates a stack overflow error.

I am working with Netbeans 8.0 and JSF2.2. I am trying to create a web site that has a common header, footer, and menu. The only part that would be dynamic is the content. So here goes...
1) I need a common template that has 4 parts, Header, Footer, Menu, Content
2) The header, footer and menu are to be in a separate files of which are called from the main template
3) The content will change based on the menu item changed
4) The menu has to change the content section only
I know how to do this in HTML but I am trying to set up some thing in JSF to learn more on JSF pages. All I am looking for is an example that I can follow along with having the multiple pages as well having the menu change the content (I have done a ton of internet searching but nothing really fits the bill).
This is the code I have currently.
Index (Main Template)
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

I have an addressBook GUI where I have a JList that populates with the contacts names, and once I double click a contacts name I'm wanting to fill the textfields with the contacts corresponding data.
ex) ContactType: Family (enum), Name: Zoidberg, Address: 111 Space Drive, City: New York City, etc...
I've got it to where I select open from the JMenu, it populates the JList, but once I select a contacts name, all the textfields are populated, but only with the contacts name
ex) Name: Zoidberg, Address: Zoidberg, City: Zoidberg, etc....
What am i doing wrong here, and how can i fix it to where it fills out the correct data?
Here's my code so far:
public class AddressBookGUI extends JFrame {
private final int WIDTH = 450;
private final int HEIGHT = 300;
private JLabel currentlySelected;
private JTextField contactTypeTextField;
[code]...
I'm certain the logic is messed up near the end where i set all text fields to the index, because no matter what field i want to fill it's at it's going to set it to whatever index I select, but I don't know how to fix it.

I am using:
Java:..... 1.8.0_20JavaFX:... 8.0.20-b26
I have this class:
public class Person {
private SimpleStringProperty name;
public SimpleStringProperty nameProperty(){
if(this.name==null){
this.name=new SimpleStringProperty();
[Code] .....
I have this:
lista = FXCollections.<Person>observableArrayList();
lista.addAll(new Person("uno"),new Person("due"),new Person("tre"));
myListView.setItems(lista);
The problem is if I add /remove an item all is fine, the listView refreshes correctly:
Person p = new Person(tfld_textAdd.getText());
lista.add(0, p);
But if I change a value on an item into the observable list it doesn't:
lista.get(0).setName("new value");
I also have a table linked in the same way and the table workd correctly after I updated my Java version...

I have a JList<Object> in my code (it actually takes JLabels) called imageList, and I've given it a custom CellRenderer using the following code:
cellRenderer = new DefaultListCellRenderer() {
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
@Override
public Component getListCellRendererComponent(JList<?> list,
Object value, int index, boolean isSelected,
boolean cellHasFocus) {
[Code] .....
However, when I click anywhere on the JList, nothing gets printed to the console, which suggests that the mousePressed() method isn't being invoked. I think it's a problem with the CellRenderer, because I have similar code elsewhere that works, the only difference being I don't use a custom CellRenderer.

I want to read json file as follow;
{
"M": {
"row": [
{
"col1": "c00"
},
{
"col1": "c10",
"col2": "c11"
},
{
"col1": "c20",
"col2": "c21",
"col3": "c22"
}
]
}
}
Next to reading I need to assign to two dimensional array, but without giving "col1","col2","col3" a lot.
The array is for example, Array[3][] = {{"c00"},{"c10","c11"},{"c20","c21","c22"}};
