Using KeyMap in Editable JComboBoxes and JTable

I am using Keymapping for JTextFields. It works fine ! I am interested in extending the keymap feature to JComboBoxes and JTable.

if you want to do the keymapping inside the editable component of the combobox or the table, make sure you apply it on the editor component.e.g. comboBox.getEditor().getEditorComponent() and table.getCellEditor().getTableCellEditorComponent().

Escape key "dies" in combobox and JTable

I have set in my JDialog the default key ESCAPE as this standard code:
          KeyStroke escKey = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ESCAPE, 0);
          int param = JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW;
          root.getInputMap(param).put(escKey, "close");
          root.getActionMap().put("close", actionCancel);
     this.btCancel.setAction(actionCancel);
The problem is when I have JComboBoxs and JTables. All key events seem to be consumed
In this components (and maybe more components). So, if I press ESCAPE and my focus
in a combobox, the dialog won't close.
How could I work around this?
thank you

I've got the solution!
I have a javaBean (JPanel) that has only one JComboBox. I trigger key pressed (don't know
if should be key released in this case) on comboBox. Then I check if...
this.comboBox.isPopupVisible().
Simple. If popup is not visible and dispatch the event to this.
I just wonder how the event goes to my javaBean, my javabean is in a dialog and this
dialog of mine ends up to catch the event. ???
Ok, this stays has a solution for future developers to found - in case they guess that
right keywords :)

JProgressBar and ObserverPattern in multiple document app??

Hi,
I'm working on a multiple document application with jInternalFrames. There is one very time-consuming process and therefore I'd like to show a progressbar for the user to know, that the programm is still running.
So Icreated a seperate internalFrame with a jProgressBar and I implemented the observer pattern.
Now the problem is: my time-consuming process (which is in the observable-class) notifies the internalFrame whenever one percent of work is done,
and the programm even enters the update method of the internal frame. In this update method i set the value of the
progress bar, but nothing happens. I tried a repaint() and even a paintImmediately() but nothing happens until
my time-consuming process is done. That's not exactly what i call a progressbar... ;-) It is even worse as the whole view of the application is faulty once I minimized and then resized the main window while my time-consuming process is running.
So I already found some articles and I fear I have to work with threads. But how?
can anyone explain to me what method I have to run as a thread and how can I refresh my internalFrame respectively the progressbar then?
I hope anyone can help me...

}when press pause button i am getting runtime errors like this

at java.lang.Object.wait(Native Method)
at java.lang.Object.wait(Unknown Source)
at ProgressDemo.actionPerformed(ProgressDemo.java:53)
plz give comments where i went wrong...

Read the tutorial: [http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/essential/concurrency/guardmeth.html]
When a thread invokes d.wait, it must own the intrinsic lock for d � otherwise an error is thrown.
Put the th.wait() call inside a synchronized block
synchronized (th) {
th.wait();
}Also you can call Thread.start() only once on the same object, so you will have to create a new instance of the thread if you want it to start again.

I do not have an answer for you.
However, I did skim through a solution to your problem. Since it didn't solve my problem at the time, I didn't try out the code.
In the book "Core Web Programming", Second Edition, Marty Hall and Larry Brown, Sun Microsystems Press, they do discuss making a progress bar synchronize with a file download and why you have to make it multi-threaded.
If you can head over to your bookstore, it's Chapter 15.6 and consists of about two and a half pages. Even better, the example's source code is available for free on their web site at:
http://www.corewebprogramming.com
Click on the hypertext link to Chapter 15, then scroll down and grab FileTransfer.java near the bottom of the page.
Hope this at least points you in the right direction, but I admit I wouldn't even allow the user to resize the table containing the progress bar to begin with. If I absolutely had to, I'd force the progress bar thread to reset itself each time it received a window-resizing event.

Indeterminate JProgressBar inside JTable cell

I am able to put a JProgressBar inside a JTable cell, via a custom renderer to do so, however, I am unable to make the progress bar show the indeterminate animation. Any ideas? I calledbar.setIndeterminate( true ); and it doesn't seem to want to show. Is the JTable preventing it?
(should I include more of my code?)

Your JProgressBar is used to render the table cell only when that cell of the JTable needs to be rendered and the JProgressBar has no say in this.
I don't know why you would want to do this but to do this I would set up timer that fired a tree model event to say that the content of the cell had changed. This would trigger the cell to be re-painted. I think, but I can't be sure, that you will not be able to use
bar.setIndeterminate( true );
You may have to craft your own progress bar to make this easy.

Vectors and JTable

There is 2 things I am having problems with. I have 2 vectors I need to combine. I am not sure how to combine vectors. Also I am trying to enter the information in the vectors into a JTable. I have the column names in the JTable. Here is some of the code I have now.
//enters the column names into a vector which does display in the Jtable
StringTokenizer stringTokenizer = new StringTokenizer(names, test);
while(stringTokenizer.hasMoreTokens())
columnNames.add(stringTokenizer.nextToken());
right now I have a 2 vectors named partinfo and nsinfo. I am not sure how to combine them the information needs to line up. For the Jtable I know it needs a vector of vectors but I am not sure how to do that. Thanks for anay help.

I am still having problems. I think I got the 2 vectors combined. I can get it to output but it displays the same entry in every row. Here is how I combined and displayed. Thanks for any help.
for(int j=0; j <partinfo.size(); j++)
newnsn = "";
partinfo.elementAt(j).toString();
tempData = (PARTS)partinfo.elementAt(j);
nsninfo.elementAt(j).toString();
tempSpace = (NSN)nsninfo.elementAt(j);
newnsn = tempSpace.nsn1 +" " tempSpace.nsn2 " " tempSpace.nsn3 " " +tempSpace.nsn4;
rowData.addElement(selectpart);
rowData.addElement(test4);
rowData.addElement(tempData.part);
rowData.addElement(test4);
rowData.addElement(test4);
rowData.addElement(tempData.cage);
rowData.addElement(tempData.smr);
rowData.addElement(tempData.desc);
rowData.addElement(newnsn);
System.out.println(j);
}//for
for(int q=0; q <rowData.size(); q++)
data.addElement(rowData);
System.out.println(q);
StringTokenizer stringTokenizer = new StringTokenizer(names, test);
while(stringTokenizer.hasMoreTokens())
columnNames.add(stringTokenizer.nextToken());
rowData.setSize(getRowCount());
columnNames.setSize(getColumnCount());
DefaultTableModel model = new DefaultTableModel(data, columnNames);

Problem with JPanel, JScroll and JTable

Hi.
On one of my Jframes, i have 3 Jpanels. There are two on one side, and one of the other which spans the height of the other two. However, it does more than span the height of the other two, it streches the height of the Jframe as it is about 300 pixels too heigh.
I'm not sure which element is streching the JPanel, it might be either the Jpanel itself, the JScroll or the JTable. Theres alot of code, however i'm going to try and cut out the irrelevent parts.
I call the Jpanel via:
FarmList = new javax.swing.JPanel();
FarmList.setBorder(javax.swing.BorderFactory.createTitledBorder(null, "Farm List", javax.swing.border.TitledBorder.DEFAULT_JUSTIFICATION, javax.swing.border.TitledBorder.DEFAULT_POSITION, new java.awt.Font("Tahoma", 1, 11)));
FarmList.add(new GetFarms());And the code for the GetFarms() class is:
public class GetFarms extends JPanel {
 private final int COLUMNS = 4;
 private int ROWS = 2;
 private JTable sampleJTable;
 private String[][] cells = new String[ROWS][COLUMNS];
 public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
 JFrame frame = new JFrame("Covenant Farm List");
 frame.add(new GetFarms());
 frame.setSize(450,150);
 frame.setVisible(true);
 public GetFarms() throws Exception {
 URL theUrl = new URL("http://www.allydm.co.uk/Covenant/farm_list.php");
 BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(
 new InputStreamReader(
 theUrl.openStream()));
 String inputLine = in.readLine();
 String[] lines = inputLine.split(" ");
 for (int i = 0; i < ROWS; i++) {
 String[] stuff = lines.split(" ");
 for (int j = 0; j < COLUMNS; j++) {
 cells[i][j] = stuff[j];
 in.close();
 String[] columnNames = {"Username", "DA", "Sentry", "Last Update"};
 sampleJTable = new JTable(cells, columnNames);
 JScrollPane tablePane = new JScrollPane(sampleJTable);
add(tablePane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
If anyone has any ideas, on how to limit the size of the Jpanel or JScroll it'd be greatly appreciated.

did you implement setxxxSize() methods?

One model for JTree and JTable

Hi.
Is it possible for a JTree and a JTable to share one model?
Thank you

Hope u r not using Comonent TreeTable

How can I display data from ResultSet to a component like jLable and JTable

hi there
My code as shown below

                System.out.println("line 3");
                tblLookup.setModel(model);
                System.out.println("line 4");
            else if(type == 2){
                System.out.println("line else if 1");
        }catch(Exception ex)    {

            return false;
        return true;
    }I can read from access db and put the resultset on rs2 , it works fine
my problem is when I try to display the data ( which is amharic unicode character ) on jTable and jLabel as shown it displays '???'
besides I have checked the font by giving unicode like '\u1200' on both component displays it well
so is there something to do before trying to display unicode characters from resultSet
please I ' m waiting
thanks a lot

i am also new to swing i was just wondering are you using the swing palette to create your interface
by the look of the code
JList list = new JList( );
list.add(mystringvalue, ? );you may not be because every JList is put in a JScrollPane
but if you do want to do it through the palette there is an option in properties - model which you can uses to add in values.
and if your looking to get info. from a database look up
AbstractListModel &
AbstractTableModel
the is a lot of info on the internet (example net beans CarTableModel) is a
good start off
happy hunting.
