Question

Does anyone have any good tutorials on how to fill a JList (within a JPanel) with user inputted data. Specifically, I want to add people to a selected roster. Is this a matter of filling it with an ArrayList?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Answer 1

• create a ListModel which wrapps your java.util.List (e.g. by extending AbstractListModel)
• configure JList to use this model
• create and configure a renderer to format/ display the Objects in your list as needed
