如何使JTextField与窗口一样宽

Question

I want to make the text automatically as wide as the window. I tried using text.setSize(window.getWidth(),20) and text.setBounds(window.getWidth(),20) , (where text is JTextfield), but the only way that seems to work is: static JTextField text = new JTextField(int numberOfColumns); I'm using GridBag layout.

EDIT : I have edited example according to GridBagLayout.

Use layout manager. It will automatically expands component according to window. For example;

Jpanel panel = new JPanel(new GridBagLayout());
GridBagConstraints c = new GridBagConstraints();
c.gridx = 0;
c.fill = GridBagConstraints.HORIZONTAL;
c.gridwidth = GridBagConstraints.REMAINDER;
panel.add(textfield,c);
