when i try to append a char or string to jtextarea after pressing a Specific button , something odd happens , eg i want to append the '}' after pressing '{' by user in jtextarea , by the following code , the final string in jTextArea would be "}{" instead of being "{}"
private void keyPressedEvent(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt)
{
if(evt.getkeychar() == '{' )
{
JtextArea1.append("}");
}
}
You should almost never use a KeyListener on a JTextArea or other JTextComponent. For this, I'd use a DocumentFilter which allows you to update the Document before the user's input has been sent to it.
eg,
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.text.*;
public class DocFilterEg {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JTextArea textArea = new JTextArea(10, 20);
PlainDocument doc = (PlainDocument) textArea.getDocument();
doc.setDocumentFilter(new DocumentFilter() {
@Override
public void insertString(FilterBypass fb, int offset, String text,
AttributeSet attr) throws BadLocationException {
text = checkTextForParenthesis(text);
super.insertString(fb, offset, text, attr);
}
@Override
public void replace(FilterBypass fb, int offset, int length,
String text, AttributeSet attrs) throws BadLocationException {
text = checkTextForParenthesis(text);
super.replace(fb, offset, length, text, attrs);
}
private String checkTextForParenthesis(String text) {
if (text.contains("{") && !text.contains("}")) {
int index = text.indexOf("{") + 1;
text = text.substring(0, index) + "}" + text.substring(index);
}
return text;
}
});
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null, new JScrollPane(textArea));
}
}
