[JAVA] Update Swing Components


Question

Hi there...

Basically what i want to do is have a JPanel that contains a set of JLabels. Each of these JLabels represents something in a LinkedList in another object within the program. Does anyone know how to update the JPanel to reflect the new state of the LinkedList whenever it is changed (note: it doesnt need to have any sort of listener attached to the list, just some way of refreshing what the JPanel displays).

Thanks for any help

James

It sounds to me like you're making some kind of list containing all items in the LinkedList.

I kinda wonder why you don't use a jList then........

Anywayz, you tried using jFrame.repaint()?

you could also try a jFrame.show()...

(jFrame is the name of your frame, you can probably just use this.repaint() instead)

    • Uranus releases about 15% more energy than it receives from the Sun, according to two new papers published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society and the journal Geophysical Research Letters. The amount of heat a planet exudes could be an indication of its age: the less heat released relative to the heat absorbed from the Sun, the older the planet is. Uranus stood out from the other planets because it appeared to give off as much heat as it received, implying it had none of its own. This puzzled scientists. Some hypothesized that perhaps the planet is much older than all the others and has cooled off completely. Others proposed that a giant collision — the same one that may have knocked the planet on its side—blasted out all of Uranus’ heat. But none of these hypotheses satisfied scientists, motivating them to solve Uranus’ cold case. https://www.sci.news/space/warmer-uranus-14079.html  
    • The reality is that it's much, much cheaper to have a single code base than rewrite and maintain everything in native frameworks for each platform. It's just sad that the most reliable technology stack for it is so heavy on resources (literally 3 times the RAM, according to the screenshots).
