AdjustmentEvent.BLOCK_DECREMENT has the following syntax.
public static final int BLOCK_DECREMENT
In the following code shows how to use AdjustmentEvent.BLOCK_DECREMENT field.
import java.awt.BorderLayout; import java.awt.Container; import java.awt.Dimension; import java.awt.event.AdjustmentEvent; import java.awt.event.AdjustmentListener; // ww w .j a v a 2 s. c o m import javax.swing.JFrame; import javax.swing.JScrollBar; import javax.swing.JScrollPane; import javax.swing.JTextArea; public class Main { public static void main(String args[]) { JFrame frame = new JFrame(); Container contentPane = frame.getContentPane(); JTextArea b = new JTextArea(); b.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(600,600)); JScrollPane pane = new JScrollPane(b); AdjustmentListener hListener = new AdjustmentListener() { public void adjustmentValueChanged(AdjustmentEvent e) { System.out.println("Horizontal: "); dumpInfo(e); } }; JScrollBar hBar = pane.getHorizontalScrollBar(); hBar.addAdjustmentListener(hListener); AdjustmentListener vListener = new AdjustmentListener() { public void adjustmentValueChanged(AdjustmentEvent e) { System.out.println("Vertical: "); dumpInfo(e); } }; JScrollBar vBar = pane.getVerticalScrollBar(); vBar.addAdjustmentListener(vListener); contentPane.add(pane, BorderLayout.CENTER); frame.setSize(300, 200); frame.setVisible(true); } private static void dumpInfo(AdjustmentEvent e) { System.out.println("Value: " + e.getValue()); String type = null; switch (e.getAdjustmentType()) { case AdjustmentEvent.TRACK: type = "Track"; break; case AdjustmentEvent.BLOCK_DECREMENT: type = "Block Decrement"; break; case AdjustmentEvent.BLOCK_INCREMENT: type = "Block Increment"; break; case AdjustmentEvent.UNIT_DECREMENT: type = "Unit Decrement"; break; case AdjustmentEvent.UNIT_INCREMENT: type = "Unit Increment"; break; } System.out.println("Type: " + type); } }
