I am trying to limit the max length of character a user can input in a textfield but It seems to be not working.
Here is the code:
text2 = new JTextField("Enter text here",8);
Is there anything I am doing wrong? How can I make the limit to work properly?
The constructor
sets the number of visible columns to 8 but doesn’t restrict you from entering more.
You could use a DocumentFilter to restrict the input length.
