How can we add padding to a JTextField in Java?
A JTextField is a subclass of JTextComponent class and it is one of the most important components that allow the user to input text value in a single-line format. A JTextField class will generate an ActionListener interface when we trying to enter some input inside it. The important methods of a JTextField class are setText(), getText(), setBorder(), setEnabled(), etc. We can add padding to a JTextField using the setMargin(Insets s) of JTextComponent class.Syntaxpublic void setMargin(Insets m)Exampleimport java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; public class JTextfieldPaddingTest extends JFrame { private JTextField jtf; public JTextfieldPaddingTest() { ...
Read MoreHow can we disable the leaf of JTree in Java?
A JTree is a component that presents a hierarchical view of data. The user has the ability to expand or collapse individual sub-trees. A TreeNode interface defines the methods that must be implemented nodes of a JTree object. The DefaulMutableTreeNode class provides a default implementation of a TreeNode interface. We can disable the leaf of JTree by overriding the getTreeCellRendererComponent() method of DefaultTreeCellRenderer class.Syntaxpublic Component getTreeCellRendererComponent(JTree tree, Object value, boolean sel, boolean expanded, boolean leaf, int row, boolean hasFocus)Exampleimport java.awt.*; import javax.swing.tree.*; import javax.swing.*; public class JTreeLeafNodeDisableTest extends JFrame { private TreeNode treeNode; private JTree tree; public JTreeLeafNodeDisableTest() { setTitle("JTreeLeafNodeDisable Test"); ...
Read MoreHow can we remove a selected row from a JTable in Java?
A JTable is a subclass of JComponent class for displaying complex data structures. A JTable component can follow the Model View Controller (MVC) design pattern for displaying the data in rows and columns. A JTable can generate TableModelListener, TableColumnModelListener, ListSelectionListener, CellEditorListener and RowSorterListener interfaces. We can remove a selected row from a JTable using the removeRow() method of the DefaultTableModel class.Syntaxpublic void removeRow(int row)Exampleimport java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.table.*; public class RemoveSelectedRowTest extends JFrame { private JTable table; private DefaultTableModel model; private Object[][] data; private String[] ...
Read MoreHow can we call the invokeLater() method in Java?
An invokeLater() method is a static method of the SwingUtilities class and it can be used to perform a task asynchronously in the AWT Event dispatcher thread. The SwingUtilities.invokeLater() method works like SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait() except that it puts the request on the event queue and returns immediately. An invokeLater() method does not wait for the block of code inside the Runnable referred by a target to execute.Syntaxpublic static void invokeLater(Runnable target)Exampleimport java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; public class InvokeLaterTest extends Object { private static void print(String msg) { String name = Thread.currentThread().getName(); ...
Read MoreHow to implement a rollover effect for a JButton in Java?
A JButton is a subclass of AbstractButton and it can be used for adding platform-independent buttons to a GUI application. A JButon can generate an ActionListener interface when the button is pressed or clicked, it can also generate the MouseListener and KeyListener interfaces. We can implement the rollover effect when the mouse moves over a JButton by overriding the mouseEntered() method of the MouseListener interface.Syntaxvoid mouseEntered(MouseEvent e)Exampleimport java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; public class RollOverButtonTest extends JFrame { private JButton button; public RollOverButtonTest() { setTitle("RollOverButton Test"); ...
Read MoreWhat is the importance of a WindowListener interface in Java?
The class which process the WindowEvent needs to be implemented this interface and an object of this class can be registered with a component by using addWindowListener() method.Methods of WindowListener InterfaceThe WindowListener interface defines 7 methods for handling window eventsvoid windowActivated(WindowEvent we) − Invoked when a window is activated.void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent we) − Invoked when a window is deactivated.void windowOpened(WindowEvent we) − Invoked when a window is opened.void windowClosed(WindowEvent we) − Invoked when a window is closed.void windowClosing(WindowEvent we) − Invoked when a window is closing.void windowIconified(WindowEvent we) − Invoked when a window minimized.void windowDeiconfied(WindowEvent we) − Invoked when a window is restored.Syntaxpublic ...
Read MoreHow to validate if JTable has an empty cell in Java?
A JTable is a subclass of JComponent class for displaying complex data structures. A JTable can follow the Model View Controller (MVC) design pattern for displaying the data in rows and columns. A JTable will generate TableModelListener, TableColumnModelListener, ListSelectionListener, CellEditorListener and RowSorterListener interfaces.We can validate whether the JTable cell is empty or not by implementing the getValueAt() method of JTable class. If we click on the "Click Here" button, it will generate an action event and display a popup message like "Field is Empty" to the user.Exampleimport java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.table.*; public class JTableEmptyValidateTest extends JFrame { ...
Read MoreHow can we filter a JTable in Java?
A JTable provides a very flexible possibility to create and display tables. The TableModel interface defines methods for objects that specify the contents of a table. The AbstractTableModel class is typically extended to provide a custom implementation of a model table. A JTable class provides the ability to edit tables using the method setCellEditor() allows an object of the TableCellEditor interface.We can filter a table using the setRowFilter() method of TableRowSorter class.Exampleimport java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import java.util.regex.*; import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.table.*; public class FilterTableTest extends JFrame { private JTable table; private TableModel model; ...
Read MoreHow to implement the mouse right-click on each node of JTree in Java?
A JTree is a subclass of JComponent class that can be used to display the data with the hierarchical properties by adding nodes to nodes and keeps the concept of parent and child node. Each element in the tree becomes a node. The nodes are expandable and collapsible. We can implement the mouse right-click on each node of a JTree using the mouseReleased() method of MouseAdapter class and need to call show() method of JPopupMenu class to show the popup menu on the tree node.Exampleimport java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.tree.*; public class JTreeRightClickTest extends JFrame { ...
Read MoreHow to display "No records available" text in a JTable in Java?
A JTable is a subclass of JComponent class and it can be used to create a table with information displayed in multiple rows and columns. When a value is selected from a JTable, a TableModelEvent is generated, which is handled by implementing a TableModelListener interface.In the below program, we can display "No records available" text if the rows are not available in a JTable.Exampleimport java.awt.*; import java.awt.event.*; import javax.swing.*; import javax.swing.table.*; public class NoRecordTableTest extends JFrame { private JPanel panel; private JTable table; private JScrollPane scrollPane; public NoRecordTableTest() { panel = new JPanel(); panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout()); ...
