JScrollPane does not work in JSplitPane

Question

Hi there,
i have a problem with my JSplitPane.
i have constructed a JScrollPane containing a JEditorPane.
if i show this ScrollPane in a seperate window all works fine, but if i want to add it as the right part of the SplitPane nothing seems to happen. i can not see any ScrollPane and/or EditorPane.
any ideas?
thx anyway

I run your code and works fine.
import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class test
     public test()
          JSplitPane  splitPane = new JSplitPane();
          JPanel      leftPanel  = new JPanel();
          JTree       tree       = new JTree();
          JPanel      rightPanel = new JPanel();
          JEditorPane editor     = new JEditorPane();
          JScrollPane scroller   = new JScrollPane(editor);
          leftPanel.setLayout(new BorderLayout() );
          leftPanel.add(tree, BorderLayout.CENTER);
          rightPanel.setLayout(new BorderLayout() );
          rightPanel.add(scroller, BorderLayout.CENTER);
          splitPane.setLeftComponent(leftPanel);splitPane.setRightComponent(rightPanel);
          JFrame j = new JFrame("TEST");
          j.getContentPane().add(splitPane);
          j.pack();
          j.setVisible(true);
     public static void main( String[] args)
          new test();
}
