        GridBagConstraints gbc = new GridBagConstraints();
        gbc.weightx = 1.0;
        gbc.weighty = 1.0;
        gbc.gridwidth = gbc.REMAINDER;
        add(new JTextField(16), gbc);
        for(int j = 0, k = 1; j < 5; j++)
            addLabels(getLabel(k++), getLabel(k++), gbc);
        add(new JButton("button"), gbc);
    private void addLabels(JLabel label1, JLabel label2, GridBagConstraints gbc)
        gbc.gridwidth = gbc.RELATIVE;
        add(label1, gbc);
        gbc.gridwidth = gbc.REMAINDER;
        add(label2, gbc);
    private JLabel getLabel(int n)
        JLabel label = new JLabel("label " + n, JLabel.CENTER);
        label.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEtchedBorder());
        return label;
    public static void main(String[] args)
        JApplet applet = new AppletLayout();
        JFrame f = new JFrame();
        f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        f.add(applet);
        f.setSize(400,400);
        f.setLocation(200,200);
