public class JList<E> extends JComponent implements Scrollable, Accessible
A component that displays a list of objects and allows the user to select one or more items. A separate model,ListModel
, maintains the contents of the list.It's easy to display an array or Vector of objects, using the
JList
constructor that automatically builds a read-onlyListModel
instance for you:// Create a JList that displays strings from an array String[] data = {"one", "two", "three", "four"}; JList<String> myList = new JList<String>(data); // Create a JList that displays the superclasses of JList.class, by // creating it with a Vector populated with this data Vector<Class<?>> superClasses = new Vector<Class<?>>(); Class<JList> rootClass = javax.swing.JList.class; for(Class<?> cls = rootClass; cls != null; cls = cls.getSuperclass()) { superClasses.addElement(cls); } JList<Class<?>> myList = new JList<Class<?>>(superClasses); // The automatically created model is stored in JList's "model" // property, which you can retrieve ListModel<Class<?>> model = myList.getModel(); for(int i = 0; i < model.getSize(); i++) { System.out.println(model.getElementAt(i)); }
A
ListModel
can be supplied directly to aJList
by way of a constructor or thesetModel
method. The contents need not be static - the number of items, and the values of items can change over time. A correctListModel
implementation notifies the set ofjavax.swing.event.ListDataListener
s that have been added to it, each time a change occurs. These changes are characterized by ajavax.swing.event.ListDataEvent
, which identifies the range of list indices that have been modified, added, or removed.JList
'sListUI
is responsible for keeping the visual representation up to date with changes, by listening to the model.Simple, dynamic-content,
JList
applications can use theDefaultListModel
class to maintain list elements. This class implements theListModel
interface and also provides ajava.util.Vector
-like API. Applications that need a more customListModel
implementation may instead wish to subclassAbstractListModel
, which provides basic support for managing and notifying listeners. For example, a read-only implementation ofAbstractListModel
:// This list model has about 2^16 elements. Enjoy scrolling. ListModel<String> bigData = new AbstractListModel<String>() { public int getSize() { return Short.MAX_VALUE; } public String getElementAt(int index) { return "Index " + index; } };
The selection state of a
JList
is managed by another separate model, an instance ofListSelectionModel
.JList
is initialized with a selection model on construction, and also contains methods to query or set this selection model. Additionally,JList
provides convenient methods for easily managing the selection. These methods, such assetSelectedIndex
andgetSelectedValue
, are cover methods that take care of the details of interacting with the selection model. By default,JList
's selection model is configured to allow any combination of items to be selected at a time; selection modeMULTIPLE_INTERVAL_SELECTION
. The selection mode can be changed on the selection model directly, or viaJList
's cover method. Responsibility for updating the selection model in response to user gestures lies with the list'sListUI
.A correct
ListSelectionModel
implementation notifies the set ofjavax.swing.event.ListSelectionListener
s that have been added to it each time a change to the selection occurs. These changes are characterized by ajavax.swing.event.ListSelectionEvent
, which identifies the range of the selection change.The preferred way to listen for changes in list selection is to add
ListSelectionListener
s directly to theJList
.JList
then takes care of listening to the the selection model and notifying your listeners of change.Responsibility for listening to selection changes in order to keep the list's visual representation up to date lies with the list's
ListUI
.Painting of cells in a
JList
is handled by a delegate called a cell renderer, installed on the list as thecellRenderer
property. The renderer provides ajava.awt.Component
that is used like a "rubber stamp" to paint the cells. Each time a cell needs to be painted, the list'sListUI
asks the cell renderer for the component, moves it into place, and has it paint the contents of the cell by way of itspaint
method. A default cell renderer, which uses aJLabel
component to render, is installed by the lists'sListUI
. You can substitute your own renderer using code like this:// Display an icon and a string for each object in the list. class MyCellRenderer extends JLabel implements ListCellRenderer<Object> { final static ImageIcon longIcon = new ImageIcon("long.gif"); final static ImageIcon shortIcon = new ImageIcon("short.gif"); // This is the only method defined by ListCellRenderer. // We just reconfigure the JLabel each time we're called. public Component getListCellRendererComponent( JList<?> list, // the list Object value, // value to display int index, // cell index boolean isSelected, // is the cell selected boolean cellHasFocus) // does the cell have focus { String s = value.toString(); setText(s); setIcon((s.length() > 10) ? longIcon : shortIcon); if (isSelected) { setBackground(list.getSelectionBackground()); setForeground(list.getSelectionForeground()); } else { setBackground(list.getBackground()); setForeground(list.getForeground()); } setEnabled(list.isEnabled()); setFont(list.getFont()); setOpaque(true); return this; } } myList.setCellRenderer(new MyCellRenderer());
Another job for the cell renderer is in helping to determine sizing information for the list. By default, the list's
ListUI
determines the size of cells by asking the cell renderer for its preferred size for each list item. This can be expensive for large lists of items. To avoid these calculations, you can set afixedCellWidth
andfixedCellHeight
on the list, or have these values calculated automatically based on a single prototype value:JList<String> bigDataList = new JList<String>(bigData); // We don't want the JList implementation to compute the width // or height of all of the list cells, so we give it a string // that's as big as we'll need for any cell. It uses this to // compute values for the fixedCellWidth and fixedCellHeight // properties. bigDataList.setPrototypeCellValue("Index 1234567890");
JList
doesn't implement scrolling directly. To create a list that scrolls, make it the viewport view of aJScrollPane
. For example:JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(myList); // Or in two steps: JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(); scrollPane.getViewport().setView(myList);
JList
doesn't provide any special handling of double or triple (or N) mouse clicks, but it's easy to add aMouseListener
if you wish to take action on these events. Use thelocationToIndex
method to determine what cell was clicked. For example:MouseListener mouseListener = new MouseAdapter() { public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) { if (e.getClickCount() == 2) { int index = list.locationToIndex(e.getPoint()); System.out.println("Double clicked on Item " + index); } } }; list.addMouseListener(mouseListener);
Warning: Swing is not thread safe. For more information see Swing's Threading Policy.
Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the
java.beans
package. Please seeXMLEncoder

JList
public JList(ListModel<E> dataModel)
Constructs aJList
that displays elements from the specified,non-null
, model. AllJList
constructors delegate to this one.This constructor registers the list with the
ToolTipManager
, allowing for tooltips to be provided by the cell renderers.- Parameters:
dataModel
- the model for the list- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if the model isnull
-
JList
public JList(E[] listData)
Constructs aJList
that displays the elements in the specified array. This constructor creates a read-only model for the given array, and then delegates to the constructor that takes aListModel
.Attempts to pass a
null
value to this method results in undefined behavior and, most likely, exceptions. The created model references the given array directly. Attempts to modify the array after constructing the list results in undefined behavior.- Parameters:
listData
- the array of Objects to be loaded into the data model,non-null
-
JList
public JList(Vector<? extends E> listData)
Constructs aJList
that displays the elements in the specifiedVector
. This constructor creates a read-only model for the givenVector
, and then delegates to the constructor that takes aListModel
.Attempts to pass a
null
value to this method results in undefined behavior and, most likely, exceptions. The created model references the givenVector
directly. Attempts to modify theVector
after constructing the list results in undefined behavior.- Parameters:
listData
- theVector
to be loaded into the data model,non-null
-
JList
public JList()
Constructs aJList
with an empty, read-only, model.

Method Detail
-
getUI
public ListUI getUI()
Returns theListUI
, the look and feel object that renders this component.- Returns:
- the
ListUI
object that renders this component
-
setUI
public void setUI(ListUI ui)
Sets theListUI
, the look and feel object that renders this component.- Parameters:
ui
- theListUI
object- See Also:
UIDefaults.getUI(javax.swing.JComponent)
-
updateUI
public void updateUI()
Resets theListUI
property by setting it to the value provided by the current look and feel. If the current cell renderer was installed by the developer (rather than the look and feel itself), this also causes the cell renderer and its children to be updated, by callingSwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI
on it.- Overrides:
updateUI
in classJComponent
- See Also:
UIManager.getUI(javax.swing.JComponent)
,SwingUtilities.updateComponentTreeUI(java.awt.Component)
-
getUIClassID
public String getUIClassID()

key used to look up the name of thejavax.swing.plaf.ListUI
class that defines the look and feel for this component.- Overrides:
getUIClassID
in classJComponent
- Returns:
- the string "ListUI"
- See Also:
JComponent.getUIClassID()
,UIDefaults.getUI(javax.swing.JComponent)
-
getPrototypeCellValue
public E getPrototypeCellValue()
Returns the "prototypical" cell value -- a value used to calculate a fixed width and height for cells. This can benull
if there is no such value.- Returns:
- the value of the
prototypeCellValue
property - See Also:
setPrototypeCellValue(E)
-
setPrototypeCellValue
public void setPrototypeCellValue(E prototypeCellValue)
Sets theprototypeCellValue
property, and then (if the new value isnon-null
), computes thefixedCellWidth
andfixedCellHeight
properties by requesting the cell renderer component for the given value (and index 0) from the cell renderer, and using that component's preferred size.This method is useful when the list is too long to allow the
ListUI
to compute the width/height of each cell, and there is a single cell value that is known to occupy as much space as any of the others, a so-called prototype.While all three of the
prototypeCellValue
,fixedCellHeight
, andfixedCellWidth
properties may be modified by this method,PropertyChangeEvent
notifications are only sent when theprototypeCellValue
property changes.To see an example which sets this property, see the class description above.
The default value of this property is
null
.This is a JavaBeans bound property.
- Parameters:
prototypeCellValue
- the value on which to basefixedCellWidth
andfixedCellHeight
- See Also:
getPrototypeCellValue()
,setFixedCellWidth(int)
,setFixedCellHeight(int)
,Container.addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener)
-
getFixedCellWidth
public int getFixedCellWidth()
Returns the value of thefixedCellWidth
property.- Returns:
- the fixed cell width
- See Also:
setFixedCellWidth(int)
-
setFixedCellWidth
public void setFixedCellWidth(int width)
Sets a fixed value to be used for the width of every cell in the list. Ifwidth
is -1, cell widths are computed in theListUI
by applyinggetPreferredSize
to the cell renderer component for each list element.The default value of this property is
-1
.This is a JavaBeans bound property.
- Parameters:
width
- the width to be used for all cells in the list- See Also:
setPrototypeCellValue(E)
,setFixedCellWidth(int)
,Container.addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener)
-
getFixedCellHeight

Returns the value of thefixedCellHeight
property.- Returns:
- the fixed cell height
- See Also:
setFixedCellHeight(int)
-
setFixedCellHeight
public void setFixedCellHeight(int height)
Sets a fixed value to be used for the height of every cell in the list. Ifheight
is -1, cell heights are computed in theListUI
by applyinggetPreferredSize
to the cell renderer component for each list element.The default value of this property is
-1
.This is a JavaBeans bound property.
- Parameters:
height
- the height to be used for for all cells in the list- See Also:
setPrototypeCellValue(E)
,setFixedCellWidth(int)
,Container.addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener)
-
getCellRenderer
public ListCellRenderer<? super E> getCellRenderer()
Returns the object responsible for painting list items.- Returns:
- the value of the
cellRenderer
property - See Also:
setCellRenderer(javax.swing.ListCellRenderer<? super E>)
-
setCellRenderer
public void setCellRenderer(ListCellRenderer<? super E> cellRenderer)
Sets the delegate that is used to paint each cell in the list. The job of a cell renderer is discussed in detail in the class level documentation.If the
prototypeCellValue
property isnon-null
, setting the cell renderer also causes thefixedCellWidth
andfixedCellHeight
properties to be re-calculated. Only onePropertyChangeEvent
is generated however - for thecellRenderer
property.The default value of this property is provided by the
ListUI
delegate, i.e. by the look and feel implementation.This is a JavaBeans bound property.
- Parameters:
cellRenderer
- theListCellRenderer
that paints list cells- See Also:
getCellRenderer()
-
getSelectionForeground
public Color getSelectionForeground()
Returns the color used to draw the foreground of selected items.DefaultListCellRenderer
uses this color to draw the foreground of items in the selected state, as do the renderers installed by mostListUI
implementations.- Returns:
- the color to draw the foreground of selected items
- See Also:
setSelectionForeground(java.awt.Color)
,DefaultListCellRenderer

setVisibleRowCount
public void setVisibleRowCount(int visibleRowCount)
Sets thevisibleRowCount
property, which has different meanings depending on the layout orientation: For aVERTICAL
layout orientation, this sets the preferred number of rows to display without requiring scrolling; for other orientations, it affects the wrapping of cells.In
VERTICAL
orientation:
Setting this property affects the return value of thegetPreferredScrollableViewportSize()
method, which is used to calculate the preferred size of an enclosing viewport. See that method's documentation for more details.In
HORIZONTAL_WRAP
andVERTICAL_WRAP
orientations:
This affects how cells are wrapped. See the documentation ofsetLayoutOrientation(int)

Value
Description
VERTICAL
Cells are layed out vertically in a single column. HORIZONTAL_WRAP
Cells are layed out horizontally, wrapping to a new row as necessary. If the visibleRowCount
property is less than or equal to zero, wrapping is determined by the width of the list; otherwise wrapping is done in such a way as to ensurevisibleRowCount
rows in the list.VERTICAL_WRAP
Cells are layed out vertically, wrapping to a new column as necessary. If the visibleRowCount
property is less than or equal to zero, wrapping is determined by the height of the list; otherwise wrapping is done atvisibleRowCount
rows.The default value of this property is
VERTICAL
.- Parameters:
layoutOrientation
- the new layout orientation, one of:VERTICAL

setDragEnabled
public void setDragEnabled(boolean b)
Turns on or off automatic drag handling. In order to enable automatic drag handling, this property should be set totrue
, and the list'sTransferHandler
needs to benon-null
. The default value of thedragEnabled
property isfalse
.The job of honoring this property, and recognizing a user drag gesture, lies with the look and feel implementation, and in particular, the list's
ListUI
. When automatic drag handling is enabled, most look and feels (including those that subclassBasicLookAndFeel
) begin a drag and drop operation whenever the user presses the mouse button over an item and then moves the mouse a few pixels. Setting this property totrue
can therefore have a subtle effect on how selections behave.If a look and feel is used that ignores this property, you can still begin a drag and drop operation by calling
exportAsDrag
on the list'sTransferHandler
.- Parameters:
b
- whether or not to enable automatic drag handling- Throws:
HeadlessException
- ifb

setDropMode
public final void setDropMode(DropMode dropMode)
Sets the drop mode for this component. For backward compatibility, the default for this property isDropMode.USE_SELECTION
. Usage of one of the other modes is recommended, however, for an improved user experience.DropMode.ON
, for instance, offers similar behavior of showing items as selected, but does so without affecting the actual selection in the list.JList
supports the following drop modes:DropMode.USE_SELECTION
DropMode.ON
DropMode.INSERT
DropMode.ON_OR_INSERT
TransferHandler
that accepts drops.- Parameters:
dropMode
- the drop mode to use- Throws:

getDropLocation
public final JList.DropLocation getDropLocation()
Returns the location that this component should visually indicate as the drop location during a DnD operation over the component, ornull
if no location is to currently be shown.This method is not meant for querying the drop location from a
TransferHandler
, as the drop location is only set after theTransferHandler
'scanImport
has returned and has allowed for the location to be shown.When this property changes, a property change event with name "dropLocation" is fired by the component.
By default, responsibility for listening for changes to this property and indicating the drop location visually lies with the list's
ListUI
, which may paint it directly and/or install a cell renderer to do so. Developers wishing to implement custom drop location painting and/or replace the default cell renderer, may need to honor this property.- Returns:
- the drop location

-
getToolTipText
public String getToolTipText(MouseEvent event)
Returns the tooltip text to be used for the given event. This overridesJComponent
'sgetToolTipText
to first check the cell renderer component for the cell over which the event occurred, returning its tooltip text, if any. This implementation allows you to specify tooltip text on the cell level, by usingsetToolTipText
on your cell renderer component.Note: ForJList
to properly display the tooltips of its renderers in this manner,JList
must be a registered component with theToolTipManager
. This registration is done automatically in the constructor. However, if at a later pointJList
is unregistered, by way of a call tosetToolTipText(null)
, tips from the renderers will no longer display.- Overrides:
getToolTipText
in classJComponent

getPreferredScrollableViewportSize
public Dimension getPreferredScrollableViewportSize()
Computes the size of viewport needed to displayvisibleRowCount
rows. The value returned by this method depends on the layout orientation:VERTICAL
:
This is trivial if bothfixedCellWidth
andfixedCellHeight
have been set (either explicitly or by specifying a prototype cell value). The width is simply thefixedCellWidth
plus the list's horizontal insets. The height is thefixedCellHeight
multiplied by thevisibleRowCount
, plus the list's vertical insets.If either
fixedCellWidth
orfixedCellHeight
haven't been specified, heuristics are used. If the model is empty, the width is thefixedCellWidth
, if greater than0
, or a hard-coded value of256
. The height is thefixedCellHeight
multiplied byvisibleRowCount
, iffixedCellHeight
is greater than0
, otherwise it is a hard-coded value of16
multiplied byvisibleRowCount
.If the model isn't empty, the width is the preferred size's width, typically the width of the widest list element. The height is the
fixedCellHeight
multiplied by thevisibleRowCount
, plus the list's vertical insets.VERTICAL_WRAP
orHORIZONTAL_WRAP
:
This method simply returns the value fromgetPreferredSize
. The list'sListUI
is expected to overridegetPreferredSize
to return an appropriate value.- Specified by:

orSwingConstants.VERTICAL
direction
- less or equal to zero to scroll up/back, greater than zero for down/forward- Returns:
- the "unit" increment for scrolling in the specified direction; always positive

-
getScrollableBlockIncrement
public int getScrollableBlockIncrement(Rectangle visibleRect, int orientation, int direction)
Returns the distance to scroll to expose the next or previous block.For vertical scrolling, the following rules are used:
- if scrolling down, returns the distance to scroll so that the last visible element becomes the first completely visible element
- if scrolling up, returns the distance to scroll so that the first visible element becomes the last completely visible element
- returns
visibleRect.height
if the list is empty
For horizontal scrolling, when the layout orientation is either
VERTICAL_WRAP
orHORIZONTAL_WRAP
:- if scrolling right, returns the distance to scroll so that the last visible element becomes the first completely visible element
- if scrolling left, returns the distance to scroll so that the first visible element becomes the last completely visible element
- returns
visibleRect.width
if the list is empty
For horizontal scrolling and
VERTICAL
orientation, returnsvisibleRect.width
.Note that the value of
visibleRect
must be the equal tothis.getVisibleRect()

getScrollableTracksViewportWidth
public boolean getScrollableTracksViewportWidth()
Returnstrue
if thisJList
is displayed in aJViewport
and the viewport is wider than the list's preferred width, or if the layout orientation isHORIZONTAL_WRAP
andvisibleRowCount <= 0
; otherwise returnsfalse
.If
false
, then don't track the viewport's width. This allows horizontal scrolling if theJViewport
is itself embedded in aJScrollPane
.- Specified by:
getScrollableTracksViewportWidth
in interfaceScrollable
- Returns:
- whether or not an enclosing viewport should force the list's width to match its own
- See Also:
Scrollable.getScrollableTracksViewportWidth()
-
getScrollableTracksViewportHeight
public boolean getScrollableTracksViewportHeight()
Returnstrue
if thisJList
is displayed in aJViewport
and the viewport is taller than the list's preferred height, or if the layout orientation isVERTICAL_WRAP
andvisibleRowCount <= 0
; otherwise returnsfalse
.If
false
, then don't track the viewport's height. This allows vertical scrolling if theJViewport
is itself embedded in aJScrollPane
.- Specified by:
getScrollableTracksViewportHeight
in interfaceScrollable
- Returns:
- whether or not an enclosing viewport should force the list's height to match its own
- See Also:
