Solved java swing user-interface jpanel jlist

Does anyone have any good tutorials on how to fill a JList (within a JPanel) with user inputted data. Specifically, I want to add people to a selected roster. Is this a matter of filling it with an ArrayList?

Any help would be much appreciated.

It should generally be JList -> JScrollPane -> JPanel. – Overweight 6/12, 2011 at 15:44

@Timothytimour question about ..with user inputted data, are you look for editable JList contents ??? – Rotary 6/12, 2011 at 16:51

create a ListModel which wrapps your java.util.List (e.g. by extending AbstractListModel)
configure JList to use this model
create and configure a renderer to format/ display the Objects in your list as needed

+1, for being the first to link to the Swing tutorial which has a working example that does exactly what the OP wants to do. – Mixon 6/12, 2011 at 15:52

Well, somebody else was first, but that response seems to be removed... ;-) – Tropopause 6/12, 2011 at 16:4

You create a JList with a ListModel. When you edit your ListModel, it is reflected on JList as well.

I think it is having a little bit time with Google. I find the following results with Google.

Use any layout manager like Gridlayout.
