Extends javax.swing.text.DefaultFormatter

I try to create my own DefaultFormatter to create en hexadecimal field:
I wand to display always 0x and next we can edit hex value.
The problem I have is that I need to overwrite the method:
boolean isNavigatable(int offset)
but his access is friendly (package).
I have try to create a new class in javax.swing.text but my new method is newer used !!!
What can I do !!!

The only two methods you should need to override are "stringToValue" and "valueToString". Those will get you back and forth between what the user enters, and what value is saved.
Hope this helps,

Extending javax.swing.text.html.parser

I'm trying to extend prepackaged jdk's html parser but stuck via specific javax.swing.text.html.parser.DTD (taking prepackaged HTML32 DTD and adding entities to it) but stuck with the fact DTD class is poorly described in javadoc (e.g. integer parameters without values description, messy list structures, e.g.). Is the any alternative documentation, maybe some working examples for my problem?

why? what's wrong? thanks

The DocumentParser seems to throw a ChangedCharSetException if it finds a "http-equiv" meta tag for "content-type" or "charset" and if the parser's "ignoreCharSet" property is set to false on creation.

Fix for PENDING in javax.swing.text.html.ParagraphView line #131

AAARGH!!! Can't understand javax.swing.text.*

Good afternoon...
does anybody understand javax.swing.text classes? i've read a number of
books, downloaded docs (including those from the javax.swing.text author), and googled everything i could think of. but nothing seems to explain it to me so that i can understand it! maybe i'm just dense, but maybe it really is that difficult.
i want to create a read-only document, who's source is not necessarily a
string, but perhaps an ArrayList of objects with a HashMap of attributes. or even something simpler for now, just an object with a fixed number of attributes. i want to display this information in a JTextArea. i tried implementing a Document and passing it to the JTextArea constructor but just got a NullPointerException.
does anybody know where i can find more information on creating my own
document types?
here's the code for my ReadOnlyDocument class if anyone of you are generous (& adventurous) enough to take a look:

import javax.swing.text.Element;
import javax.swing.text.Position;
import javax.swing.text.Segment;
public class ReadOnlyDocument implements Document{
 private String myContent = "this is the contents of my document!";
 private ArrayList listeners;
 private ReadOnlyDocument refSelf = this;
 public ReadOnlyDocument() {
 System.out.println("ReadOnlyDocument.<init>");

if you are getting that print before the timer
starts, then I'd expect it's not blocking. The
problem with these small snippets of code is that we
can't really tell what might be going on elsewhere.Yes, I realize that. AAMOF, there isn't anything going on elsewhere, i.e.
the GestureController object spawns another thread when it gets
created. That other thread blocks until a 'Mover' object is delivered to
the GestureController object. The mutex/synchronizing stuff works
like the textbook version, i.e. no deadlock, no deadly embrace, no
nothing. When the timer is started, the Mover is supposed to
call back the 'animate' method, just a method in the GestureController
object.
All the System.out.prints show that it gets there. The task (an ActionListener)
dispatched by that timer doesn't start. As you can see above, I've
used System.out.prints for that too. It is as if that Timer doesn't start.
I still haven't found anything ... This is what the 'auto.move' thing is
supposed to do: static class DragMover implements Mover {
 DrawableStack from;
 DrawableStack to;
 int position;
 DragMover(DrawableStack from, int position, DrawableStack to) {
 this.from= from;
 this.to = to;
 this.position= position;
 public void move() {
 System.out.println("moving the stuff...");
 GestureController.getGestureController().animate(from, position, to);
 public void undo() { }
 }... the line "moving stuff ..." isn't displayed either, i.e. the actionPerformed
method is never called and then ... there's nothing in between there, i.e.
the Timer is supposed to call that method.
Thank you for your reply, much appreciated and,
kind regards,
Jos
by that timer (an ActionListener)

Javax.swing.text.TableView bug in 1.4 beta 2 ?

I derived a class from TableView, which worked fine with 1.3, but now causes the following exception as soon as being layouted:

any ideas???

I wrote the com.lexetius.swing.text.LexTableView component myself. It is derived directly from javax.swing.text.TableView and it adds virtually no functionality. I'm quite sure, the problem comes from the TableView class, but I can't verify that directly, since this class is abstract (why is that, anyway??).
It would certainly help me very much, if anybody had a component, which is also derived from javax.swing.text.TableView and works with the 1.4 beta.

According to my knowledge, there is no printTable method in javax.swing.text.Utilities class
What are you trying to achieve?

Many javax.swing.text.Position objects en masse

Hi,
I am wondering if anyone has much experience with the performance of javax.swing.text.Document implementations (using GapContent) and a large number of registered Position objects. I am trying to keep track of token boundaries for quick re-lexing, and the token count can be rocket high. I am just beginning to work with this API, and I guess I am looking for any insider information I may be missing.
Thanks,
galaxy

Javax.swing.text complexity?

Hello,
does someone know how complex the javax.swing.text package is?
Perhaps someone knows of how many rows and/or functions the package consists?
thanks

kbjDidnt count yet, but if somebody could tell me how to get all classes from a package i could easily calculate method-number.
Besides why do you want to know it ??

Merge 2 javax.swing.text.Documents

Can I somehowmerge 2 styled documents?
I have 2 JEditPanes with 2 styled docs and I want to append first one at the end of second one.

(When I say styled, I mean, that I have already set some attibutes and I want them in the other document, I know, how to append plain text with insertString)

Javax.swing.text.html.HTMLDocument - reading area tag

Multiple Fonts in a javax.swing.JTextPane

I am trying to use multiple fonts in a JTextPane, but can only find ways of changing the font family used. Can anyone give me any pointers on how to do this, or a document somewhere that explains, either way with out going into the javax.swing.text.html, javax.swing.text.html.parser or java.awt.font packages.
Any information that can be provided would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Nathan

Just use SimpleAttributeSet like :
SimpleAttributeSet defaultSet = new SimpleAttributeSet();
        StyleConstants.setForeground( defaultSet, Color.BLACK );
        StyleConstants.setFontFamily( defaultSet, "Verdana" );
        StyleConstants.setFontSize( defaultSet, 14 );
        SimpleAttributeSet navigationSet = new SimpleAttributeSet();
        StyleConstants.setForeground( navigationSet, new Color(00, 99, 00) );
        StyleConstants.setBold( navigationSet, true );
        StyleConstants.setFontFamily( navigationSet, "Verdana" );
        StyleConstants.setFontSize( navigationSet, 11 );
// just defiine endPoints what ever you want
((DefaultStyledDocument)textPane.getDocument()).setCharacterAttributes(0, endPoint1, defaultSet , true)
((DefaultStyledDocument)textPane.getDocument()).setCharacterAttributes(0, endPoint2, navigation , true)

Why javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter doesn't implement java.io.FileFilter

Hi,
As many other people (I guess) I have in my project a class ExtensionFileFilter that extends javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter, whose aim is to filter files by their extension.
Now that we've migrated to Java 6, which provides javax.swing.filechooser.FileNameExtensionFilter, the old class shouldn't be needed any more.
However, there is the following issue: my old ExtensionFileFilter extends javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter but it also implements java.io.FileFilter, for being used with java.io.File.listFiles().
Then I find that I still need to maintain my class, since javax.swing.filechooser.FileNameExtensionFilter doesn't implement java.io.FileFilter.
My opinion is that javax.swing.filechooser.FileFilter should implement java.io.FileFilter, so the same subclass could be used in the two different contexts. Is there any reason to not provide it?
Could this please be added to Java 7? (BTW how to request it?)
Thank you in advance

Thank you. There is already a request for it indeed: [http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6400960]
If anybody is interested on it, just go there and vote ;-)

About Swing.text Question

I am new in swing. In javax.swing.text package is there a AbstractDocument class. If I have created that object, how can I move the contents of that object to RTF file? This mind come up because I want to save styled text into RTF file. Is that possible? Please give me some ideas. Thank you.

Look into RtfToolkit in the API maybe that will help.
