How to create an YES/NO JOptionPane with the default focus on No?

Question

Hi,
can somebody please show me how to display an JOptionPane with the options Yes and No that has the focus by default no the No button?
By default it is on the Yes button which is rather problematic for confirm dialogs like "Do you really want to delete everything?".

It would help if JPJava gave some sample code SSCCE to show they know how to construct a JOptionPane
I use explorer to access the source files in the zip folder and JGrasp to view the source code
this is copy modify from the API
Object[] options = { "YES", "CANCEL" };//{"OK", "CANCEL"} shown in api
JOptionPane.showOptionDialog(null, "Are you sure you want to delete", "Confirm Delete",
JOptionPane.DEFAULT_OPTION, JOptionPane.WARNING_MESSAGE,
null, options, options[1]);//options[1] selects CANCEL option as defaultthis method constructs
showOptionDialog
public static int showOptionDialog(Component parentComponent,
                                   Object message,
                                   String title,
                                   int optionType,
                                   int messageType,
                                   Icon icon,
                                   Object[] options,
                                   Object initialValue)
                            throws HeadlessExceptionBrings up a dialog with a specified icon, where the initial
choice is determined by the initialValue parameter and the number of choices is determined by the optionType parameter.
If optionType is YES_NO_OPTION, or YES_NO_CANCEL_OPTION and the options parameter is null,
then the options are supplied by the look and feel.
The messageType parameter is primarily used to supply a default icon from the look and feel.
Parameters:
parentComponent - determines the Frame in which the dialog is displayed; if null, or if the parentComponent
has no Frame, a default Frame is used
message - the Object to display
title - the title string for the dialog
optionType - an integer designating the options available on the dialog: YES_NO_OPTION, or
YES_NO_CANCEL_OPTION
messageType - an integer designating the kind of message this is, primarily used to determine the icon from
the pluggable Look and Feel: ERROR_MESSAGE, INFORMATION_MESSAGE, WARNING_MESSAGE,
QUESTION_MESSAGE, or PLAIN_MESSAGE
icon - the icon to display in the dialog
options - an array of objects indicating the possible choices the user can make; if the objects are components,
they are rendered properly; non-String objects are rendered using their toString methods; if this parameter is null,
the options are determined by the Look and Feel
initialValue - the object that represents the default selection for the dialog; only meaningful if options is used; can be null
Returns:
an integer indicating the option chosen by the user, or CLOSED_OPTION if the user closed the dialog
Throws:
HeadlessException - if GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless returns true
