What is JList - Java Swing

Java examples for Swing:JList

Introduction

A JList can show multiple choices on the screen whereas a JComboBox shows only one selected.

A JList is an expanded version of a JComboBox.

You can create a JList the same way you create a JComboBox, as shown:

Create a JList using an array

import javax.swing.JList;

public class Main {

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    String[] items = new String[] { "Spring", "Summer", "Fall", "Winter" };
    JList<String> list = new JList<>(items);
  }
}
