I am making a Basic calculator app in java which has 2 JTextFields and 1 JComboBox. What i want to know if there is a way to let a JButton detect what you selected in the JComboBox, when i did it with the text field it looked something like this
static String divide = "/";
if (n == JOptionPane.OK_OPTION) {
if (symbol.getText().equals(divide)){
<code>
}
}
So is there a similar way to do this with JComboBoxs??
String[] symbols = {times, minus, plus, divide};
That's the JComboBox's content code.
You can get selected item from JComboBox with method .getSelectedItem() .
Say you have String[] symbols = {times, minus, plus, divide}; as an input when constructing JComboBox (see constructor JComboBox(E[] items) )
JComboBox jcb = new JComboBox(symbols);
//you will see the string you selected
System.out.println(jcb.getSelectedItem());
Perhaps use action listener
String[] quantities1 = {"/","+"};
JComboBox comboBox = new JComboBox(quantities1);
comboBox.addActionListener(
new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
//do stuff when a section is performed
//you can use comboBox.getSelectedItem() to get the selected value
}
}
);
