Retrieve 4 inputs from one dialog box at a time

Question

I have a Jframe and when I click a button I want it to open a new Jdialog box. I want 4 different input fields. Two will be for strings, 1 int, 1 double. But I can't get it to open up a dialog with all of those things. Will I have to accept them all as strings then convert them to double and int? and what will the code for 4 input fields in a dialog box look like? If you need more info just ask... And I'm using Netbeans, if this makes it easier.

Answer 1

You could design a custom JDialog or whip up something simpler with JOptionPane:
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class JOptionPaneExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        JPanel p = new JPanel(new GridLayout(2, 2));
        p.add(new JLabel("name:"));
        p.add(new JTextField(10));
        p.add(new JLabel("age:"));
        p.add(new JTextField(10));
        int result = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, p, "title",
            JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION,
            JOptionPane.PLAIN_MESSAGE);
}
