We would like to know how to handle change event for JProgressBar.
/*from w w w . ja v a 2 s .c o m*/ import java.awt.BorderLayout; import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JProgressBar; import javax.swing.event.ChangeEvent; import javax.swing.event.ChangeListener; class BoundedChangeListener implements ChangeListener { public void stateChanged(ChangeEvent changeEvent) { Object source = changeEvent.getSource(); if (source instanceof JProgressBar) { JProgressBar theJProgressBar = (JProgressBar) source; System.out.println("ProgressBar changed: " + theJProgressBar.getValue()); } else { System.out.println("Something changed: " + source); } } } public class Main { public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception { JFrame frame = new JFrame("Stepping Progress"); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); final JProgressBar aJProgressBar = new JProgressBar(JProgressBar.VERTICAL); aJProgressBar.setStringPainted(true); aJProgressBar.addChangeListener(new BoundedChangeListener()); for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) { aJProgressBar.setValue(i++); Thread.sleep(100); } frame.add(aJProgressBar, BorderLayout.NORTH); frame.setSize(300, 200); frame.setVisible(true); } }
