However, I can't seem to find the button to allow me to edit the
particular code from within NetBeans to accomplish this seemingly simply
task.
Here's what I have:
thufir@arrakis:~/bcit-comp2611-project2/src$
thufir@arrakis:~/bcit-comp2611-project2/src$ cat a00720398/view/Tabs.java
| head -n 86 | tail -n 8
//pre-initialization code@@@@@@@@@@@@@
guestsList.setModel(new javax.swing.AbstractListModel()
{
String[] strings = { "guest 1", "guest 2" };
public int getSize() { return strings.length; }
public Object getElementAt(int i) { return strings[i]; }
});
//post initialization @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
thufir@arrakis:~/bcit-comp2611-project2/src$
thufir@arrakis:~/bcit-comp2611-project2/src$
What I want is:
guestsList.setModel(myArray); //that's it
I'd like to do this from within the GUI builder, just can't figure out
which button to click.
If you insist on complicating matters, and doing it with both hands tied behind
your back by the GUI builder...
Select the JList. In the Properties window select the Properties tab and click
on the elipsis (...) to the right of the "model" row. This will open the model
dialog box for the JList. In the dialog box select "Custom code" in the "Set
model property" combo box. Enter your custom code...
Alternatively, you could just enter the code above as is and forget about the
GUI builder.
