删除和添加JList中的项目吨

Question

The purpose is moving selected items from left to right and vice versa.
With few items works fine, but once it deals with many items like over 20k, it goes so slow.

DefaultListModel<String> fromModel = (DefaultListModel<String>) fromJList.getModel();
DefaultListModel<String> toModel = (DefaultListModel<String>) toJList.getModel();

int selectedIndex;
while ((selectedIndex = fromJList.getSelectedIndex()) != -1)
{
     String itemToRemove = fromModel.remove(selectedIndex);
     fromList.remove(itemToRemove);
     toList.add(itemToRemove);
     toModel.addElement(itemToRemove);
}

Answer 1

DefaultListModel's implementation is not the best for this kind of job. And adding/removing one by one is not efficient too, as it fires refresh event at each call.

Best would be to create your own ListModel by extending AbstractListModel.

The idea is to do all the updates, add/remove items and then call fireContentsChanged
