Removing components from an array

[shivam0101]

I am trying to add and remove JTextFields in JPanel whenever a button is pressed. If the JPanel contains any of the JTextField array, that is msg, all the elements of msg should be removed before adding. The adding method works fine. now i want to remove elements. Can someone help me in doing it? I have to somehow search the elements in the JPanel and get its name and delete it.

Thanks in advance

code for adding JTextField
int n = 0;
JTextField[] msg= new JTextField[n];

for(int i=0; i<n; i++){           
            msg[i] = new JTextField();
            msgMnemonic[i] = new JTextField();
            panel.add(msg[i]);
}

elements of msg should be removed

The Container class has a method for removing components from the container. Have you tried using it?

Yeah, removeAll, remove - by index, remove - by component.

what i need is removing all the components whose name is msg - that is msg[]. I tried i think it needs Components, If you can give an example it would be very helpful

something like, panel.remove(msg[i])

Thanks

something like, panel.remove(msg[i])

That looks about right. Have you tried it? What happened?

It did not work. It did not delete.
