About JList

[hungleon88]

By Default, JList only display the value that already exist when create JList.

Now I have an empty JList, how can i add value to the Jlist by checkBox, textField ? and how can i show the value to the jList in Frame??

You should set your JList's model to be an object of DefaultListModel. Then since you have a reference to this DefaultListModel (let's call "model") you can simply add objects to it via the addElement(Object obj) method.

You would do well to study the Sun Swing tutorials, List section where this is all explained with examples.

Good luck!

oh yes,i alredy use addElement, but i can't display the Item(value) in a jList that added
can you hint me a method to display that?, i try .show(), .list() ... but not work, forgive me, i'm so noob T_T

If you add an element to the currently displayed JList's model, it will display; nothing else need be done. For instance:

Code:

import java.awt.Dimension;
import java.awt.event.ActionEvent;
import java.awt.event.ActionListener;

import javax.swing.DefaultListModel;
import javax.swing.JButton;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JList;
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JScrollPane;

public class JListAddElement
{
  private static DefaultListModel listmodel; // here's our DefaultListModel

  private static void createAndShowUI()
  {
    final JFrame frame = new JFrame("JList AddElement");
    final JPanel mainPane = new JPanel();
    
    String[] items = {"Fe", "Fi", "Fo", "Fum", "What the F*ck?!?"};
    
    // create the list model and fill with Strings
    listmodel = new DefaultListModel();
    for (int i = 0; i < items.length; i++)
    {
      listmodel.addElement(items[i]);
    }
    // create JList and give it our defaultlistmodel
    JList myJList = new JList(listmodel);
    
    // button that allows  us to add an item to the list model
    JButton addItem = new JButton("Add Item");
    addItem.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
    {
      public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
      {
        // call a joptionpane to get a string
        String text = JOptionPane.showInputDialog(frame, "Add Item to be Entered into List");
        if (text != null && !text.isEmpty())
        {
          // then add the string to the list's model here
          // note that nothing else needs to be done.  When the model changes
          // the list automatically shows these changes
          listmodel.addElement(text);
        }
      }
    });
    
    mainPane.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(400, 300));
    mainPane.add(new JScrollPane(myJList));
    mainPane.add(addItem);

    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    frame.getContentPane().add(mainPane);
    frame.pack();
    frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);
    frame.setVisible(true);
  }

  public static void main(String[] args)
  {
    java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable()
    {
      public void run()
      {
        createAndShowUI();
      }
    });
  }
}

No no,i means, i create an empty JList, doesn't have any value in that.
Then, i want to get value from ComboBox, CheckBox and add to the JList.Thus, when i click on button Create , the value after get from ComboBox , CheckBox and add to JList will display on JList interface.
And the display is what i want

It doesn't matter if the DefaultListModel starts out with data or not. The method for getting stuff into it is the same. If you need more help, then create an SSCCE like I did above. Please read the link. It will tell you that this program should be small, compilable and runnable, and should have no code that doesn't relate to your problem, but the code should demonstrate your problem.

And remember: Do not post your whole program as no one will read it. Instead (again) post an SSCCE. Good luck!
