I have a class which extends JPanel, inside this panel i have added a lot of textField. I want to add DocumentListener to every textField to detect changes to the text and change the bachground of txtField to red. I did something as below but not yet working.
Can anyone help to solve it or any new suggestion is welcome?
public class MainDetailPanel extends JPanel implements DocumentListener{
public JLabel lblS_DWLDIRPRDPIC,lblL_DWLDIRPRD,lblS_UPLDIR,lblL_UPLDIR,lblS_DWLDIRPRD;
public JLabel lblFTP_DEFDIR,lblFTP_SERVER,lblFTP_POORT,lblFTP_USER,lblFTP_PASWOORD,lblL_CFDIR;
public JLabel lblL_DWLDIRPRDPIC,lblS_CFDIR,lblS_CFNAME,lblS_DWLNAMEPRD,lblS_DWLNAMEPRDPIC;
public JTextField txtL_DWLDIRPRD,txtS_DWLDIRPRDPIC,txtL_UPLDIR,txtS_DWLNAMEPRDPIC,txtL_CFDIR;
public JTextField txtFTP_DEFDIR,txtFTP_SERVER,txtFTP_POORT,txtFTP_USER,txtFTP_PASWOORD,txtS_UPLDIR;
public JTextField txtL_DWLDIRPRDPIC,txtS_CFDIR,txtS_CFNAME,txtS_DWLNAMEPRD,txtS_DWLDIRPRD;
public MainDetailPanel() {
createComponents();
layoutComponents();
}
private void createComponents() {
txtL_DWLDIRPRD = new JTextField(30);
txtL_DWLDIRPRD.getDocument().addDocumentListener(this);

public void insertUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
((JTextField)e.getDocument()).setBackground(Color.red);
}
public void removeUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
((JTextField)e.getDocument()).setBackground(Color.red);
}
public void changedUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
((JTextField)e.getDocument()).setBackground(Color.red);
}
}
You can't cast the Document to a JTextField. JTextField has a document. But JTextField is not a
Document.
AFAIK, you'll have to use a separate listener for every JTextField, and give the reference of the JTextField to your listener:
private static class BecomingRedDocumentListener implements DocumentListener {
private JTextField textField;
public BecomingRedDocumentListener(JTextField textField) {
this.textField = textField;
}
@Override
public void insertUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
textField.setBackground(Color.red);
}
@Override
public void removeUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
textField.setBackground(Color.red);
}
@Override
public void changedUpdate(DocumentEvent e) {
textField.setBackground(Color.red);
}
}
And you should use a factory method to create your textfields:
private JTextField createTextFieldBecomingRed() {
JTextField tf = new JTextField(30);
tf.addDocumentListener(new BecomingRedDocumentListener(tf));
return tf;
}
