Java 7中方法pack（）中的NullPointerException

Question

I have created with NetBeans Swind application. To form I added my own JList:

public class JStaticMessagesList extends JList<StaticMessagePanel> implements StaticMessages<StaticMessagePanel> {

private JStaticMessagesList.MyListModel messages = new MyListModel();
private final StaticMessagesForm messgeForm;

public JStaticMessagesList(StaticMessagesForm messgeForm) {
    this.messgeForm = messgeForm;
}

public JStaticMessagesList(StaticMessagesForm messgeForm, StaticMessages<StaticMessage> staticMessages) {
    this(messgeForm);

    for (StaticMessage msg : staticMessages) {
        messages.addElement(new StaticMessagePanel(messgeForm, msg));
    }
}

@Override
public void add(StaticMessagePanel msg) {
    messages.addElement(msg);
}

@Override
public void deleteStaticMessage(StaticMessagePanel msg) {
    messages.removeElement(msg);
}

@Override
public Iterator<StaticMessagePanel> iterator() {
    return messages.iterator();
}

@Override
public ListModel<StaticMessagePanel> getModel() {
    return null;
}

@Override
public final void setModel(ListModel<StaticMessagePanel> model) {
    if (model instanceof MyListModel) {
        super.setModel(model);
    }
}

public class MyListModel extends DefaultListModel<StaticMessagePanel> implements Iterable<StaticMessagePanel> {

    @Override
    public Iterator<StaticMessagePanel> iterator() {
        return new MyModelIterator(this);
    }

    private class MyModelIterator implements Iterator<StaticMessagePanel> {

        private int idx = 0;
        private final MyListModel model;

        private MyModelIterator(MyListModel model) {
            this.model = model;
        }

        @Override
        public boolean hasNext() {
            return model.getSize() > idx + 1;
        }

        @Override
        public StaticMessagePanel next() {
            return model.get(idx++);
        }

        @Override
        public void remove() {
            throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Removing with iterator is not supported!");
        }
    }
}
}

After adding my component instead of normal JList I am getting very nasty exception that I don't know to do with it. Also I am pretty sure that the problem is wit this component because when I remove it everything is going ok.

PS
this line in code (not listed here) is line with pack().

Answer 1

IMHO problem is here:

@Override
public ListModel<StaticMessagePanel> getModel() {
    return null;
}

List cannot work without a model. Remove this method.
