We would like to know how to handle mouse event on JList.
/* ww w .j a v a 2 s . c o m*/ import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.event.MouseAdapter; import java.awt.event.MouseEvent; import java.awt.event.MouseListener; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JList; import javax.swing.JScrollPane; public class Main { public static void main(String args[]) { String labels[] = { "A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G", "H" }; JFrame frame = new JFrame("Selecting JList"); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); JList jlist = new JList(labels); JScrollPane scrollPane1 = new JScrollPane(jlist); frame.add(scrollPane1, BorderLayout.CENTER); MouseListener mouseListener = new MouseAdapter() { public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent mouseEvent) { JList theList = (JList) mouseEvent.getSource(); if (mouseEvent.getClickCount() == 2) { int index = theList.locationToIndex(mouseEvent.getPoint()); if (index >= 0) { Object o = theList.getModel().getElementAt(index); System.out.println("Double-clicked on: " + o.toString()); } } } }; jlist.addMouseListener(mouseListener); frame.setSize(350, 200); frame.setVisible(true); } }
