public class ListDialog

extends javax.swing.JDialog

Use this modal dialog to let the user choose one string from a long list. See the main method for an example of using ListDialog. The basics:

String[] choices = {"A", "long", "array", "of", "strings"};
ListDialog.initialize(componentInControllingFrame, choices,
"Dialog Title",
"A description of the list:");
String selectedName = ListDialog.showDialog(locatorComponent,
initialSelection);

Method Detail

initialize

public static void initialize(java.awt.Component comp,
                              java.lang.String[] possibleValues,
                              java.lang.String title,
                              java.lang.String labelText)

Set up the dialog. The first argument can be null, but it really should be a component in the dialog's controlling frame.

showDialog

public static java.lang.String showDialog(java.awt.Component comp,
                                          java.lang.String initialValue)

Show the initialized dialog. The first argument should be null if you want the dialog to come up in the center of the screen. Otherwise, the argument should be the component on top of which the dialog should appear.

main

public static void main(java.lang.String[] args)

This is here so that you can view ListDialog even if you haven't written the code to include it in a program.
