I've got one textField where I only accept numbers from the keyboard, but now I have to change it as it's a "price textField" and I would also need to accept a dot "." for any kind of prices.
How can I change this in order to get what I need?
ptoMinimoField = new JTextField();
ptoMinimoField.setBounds(348, 177, 167, 20);
contentPanel.add(ptoMinimoField);
ptoMinimoField.setColumns(10);
ptoMinimoField.addKeyListener(new KeyAdapter() {
public void keyTyped(KeyEvent e) {
char caracter = e.getKeyChar();
if (((caracter < '0') || (caracter > '9'))
&& (caracter != '\b')) {
e.consume();
}
}
});
As suggested by Oracle ,Use Formatted Text Fields
Formatted text fields provide a way for developers to specify the valid set of characters that can be typed in a text field.
amountFormat = NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
...
amountField = new JFormattedTextField(amountFormat);
amountField.setValue(new Double(amount));
amountField.setColumns(10);
amountField.addPropertyChangeListener("value", this);
