Question

myJList.setSelectedValue("someTHING", true); //if "SomeThing" in the list, it won't be selected

I want to set the value, but seems like setSelectedValue is case-sensitive, I want to select a value but ignore case-sensitive, is it possible? and how?

Answer 1

Instead of adding String objects to your ListModel you could write your own String wrapper and override the equals(Object o) method to be case insensitive. This might have implications for other areas of your app.
