                            for (Card c: carti) {
                                    model.addElement(c);
                        }

        mi2.addActionListener (
            new ActionListener() {
                    public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent ev) {
                        System.exit(0);
                   }

        ); 


        setSize(500,500);
        setVisible(true);

    }

    public static void main (String [] args) {
        new Joc();
    }

}

Can anyone help me with this problem ? I'm new to java and coding , i just play around with the code... but i want results

Answer 1

I don't see where you add the model to the list, so the JList has an empty model with nothing to display

Create the JList using the model:

DefaultListModel<Card> model = new DefaultListModel<Card>();
//JList<Card> list = new JList<Card>();
JList<Card> list = new JList<Card>(model);

Also, you should be using:

list.setVisibleRowCount(...);

This will allow the JList to determine its own preferred size and you can use frame.pack() instead of frame.setSize(...).
