按钮ActionPerfomed将字符串从JList移到JList

Question

I am working on an assessment for a program I would like to participate in. I am still a bit turned around on how to interpret, understand or properly use the "tutorials" located at Tutorials Point which were provided by the program.

Jlist created using Netbeans 8.1 --> JFrame Form GUI Builder

public class Window extends javax.swing.JFrame {

/**
 * Creates new form for BootcampAssessmentGui
 */
public Window() {
    initComponents();
}

/**
 * This method is called from within the constructor to initialize the form.
 * WARNING: Do NOT modify this code. The content of this method is always
 * regenerated by the Form Editor.

I am getting errors cannot find symbol - symbol: method addElement(Object) location: variable partsList type of Jlist

the error reads very straight-forward to me. My problem is most of the examples I've seen are using DefaultListModel. NetBeans is using the AbstractListModel method.

I have reviewed the following references:

http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/Swing-JFC/DualJListwithbuttonsinbetween.htm http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/list.html#scrollingapi

But I honestly feel like I am not properly understanding how these sources are to be used to debug. I feel like I am not properly using the Object --> String based on this bit of code:

 private void clearDestinationSelected() {
Object selected[] = destList.getSelectedValues();
for (int i = selected.length - 1; i >= 0; --i) {
  destListModel.removeElement(selected[i]);
}
destList.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();

}

I will be including this request for assistance in the code via comment. I'm not a cheater. I have looked, worked, searched and thought about this for a few days. At this point I feel like asking for help would be prudent.

Answer 1

The API will help you some here, since if you check out the JList API, you'll see that your compiler was right, that JList does not have an addElement(...) method, but don't lose heart -- the DefaultListModel class does have this method, and you can extract this from your JList by calling getModel() , and then call addElement(...) on the extracted model.

Edit: no good, you're using your own model derived from AbstractListModel -- you will need to make your model non-abstract -- give it a class name, and then give your Model class an addElement method. Either that or more simply, use a DefaultListModel object that you fill with your data.
