public class JTextArea
extends JTextComponent
```
A JTextArea is a multi-line area that displays plain text. It is intended to be a lightweight component that provides source compatibility with the java.awt.TextArea class where it can reasonably do so. You can find information and examples of using all the text components in Using Text Components, a section in The Java Tutorial.
This component has capabilities not found in the java.awt.TextArea class. The superclass should be consulted for additional capabilities. Alternative multi-line text classes with more capabilities are JTextPane and JEditorPane.
The java.awt.TextArea internally handles scrolling. JTextArea is different in that it doesn't manage scrolling, but implements the swing Scrollable interface. This allows it to be placed inside a JScrollPane if scrolling behavior is desired, and used directly if scrolling is not desired.
The java.awt.TextArea has the ability to do line wrapping. This was controlled by the horizontal scrolling policy. Since scrolling is not done by JTextArea directly, backward compatibility must be provided another way. JTextArea has a bound property for line wrapping that controls whether or not it will wrap lines. By default, the line wrapping property is set to false (not wrapped).
java.awt.TextArea has two properties rows and columns that are used to determine the preferred size. JTextArea uses these properties to indicate the preferred size of the viewport when placed inside a JScrollPane to match the functionality provided by java.awt.TextArea. JTextArea has a preferred size of what is needed to display all of the text, so that it functions properly inside of a JScrollPane. If the value for rows or columns is equal to zero, the preferred size along that axis is used for the viewport preferred size along the same axis.
The java.awt.TextArea could be monitored for changes by adding a TextListener for TextEvents. In the JTextComponent based components, changes are broadcasted from the model via a DocumentEvent to DocumentListeners. The DocumentEvent gives the location of the change and the kind of change if desired. The code fragment might look something like:
```
    DocumentListener myListener = ??;
    JTextArea myArea = ??;
    myArea.getDocument().addDocumentListener(myListener);
 
```
Newlines
For a discussion on how newlines are handled, see DefaultEditorKit.

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 JavaBeans^TM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

```
protected int getColumnWidth()
```
    Gets column width. The meaning of what a column is can be considered a fairly weak notion for some fonts. This method is used to define the width of a column.

    Returns:
    the column width >= 1
  - getPreferredSize
```

    See Also:
    JComponent.setPreferredSize(java.awt.Dimension), ComponentUI

    Overrides:
    
    setFont in class JComponent
    
    Parameters:
    f - the font to use as the current font
    See Also:
    Component.getFont()
  - paramString

    a string representation of this JTextArea.
  - getScrollableTracksViewportWidth
```
public boolean getScrollableTracksViewportWidth()
```
    Returns true if a viewport should always force the width of this Scrollable to match the width of the viewport. This is implemented to return true if the line wrapping policy is true, and false if lines are not being wrapped.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getScrollableTracksViewportWidth in interface Scrollable
    
    Overrides:
    
    getScrollableTracksViewportWidth in class JTextComponent
    
    Returns:
    true if a viewport should force the Scrollables width to match its own.
  - getPreferredScrollableViewportSize
```
public Dimension getPreferredScrollableViewportSize()
```
    Returns the preferred size of the viewport if this component is embedded in a JScrollPane. This uses the desired column and row settings if they have been set, otherwise the superclass behavior is used.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getPreferredScrollableViewportSize in interface Scrollable
    
    Overrides:
    
    getPreferredScrollableViewportSize in class JTextComponent
    
    Returns:
    The preferredSize of a JViewport whose view is this Scrollable.
    See Also:

  - getScrollableUnitIncrement
```
public int getScrollableUnitIncrement(Rectangle visibleRect,
                             int orientation,
                             int direction)
```
    Components that display logical rows or columns should compute the scroll increment that will completely expose one new row or column, depending on the value of orientation. This is implemented to use the values returned by the getRowHeight and getColumnWidth methods.
    Scrolling containers, like JScrollPane, will use this method each time the user requests a unit scroll.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getScrollableUnitIncrement in interface Scrollable
    
    Overrides:
    
    getScrollableUnitIncrement in class JTextComponent
    
    Parameters:
    visibleRect - the view area visible within the viewport
    orientation - Either SwingConstants.VERTICAL or SwingConstants.HORIZONTAL.
    direction - Less than zero to scroll up/left, greater than zero for down/right.
    
    Returns:
    The "unit" increment for scrolling in the specified direction
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - for an invalid orientation
    See Also:
    JScrollBar.setUnitIncrement(int), getRowHeight(), getColumnWidth()
  - getAccessibleContext
```
public AccessibleContext getAccessibleContext()
```
    Gets the AccessibleContext associated with this JTextArea. For JTextAreas, the AccessibleContext takes the form of an AccessibleJTextArea. A new AccessibleJTextArea instance is created if necessary.
    
    Specified by:
    
    getAccessibleContext in interface Accessible
    
    Overrides:
    
    getAccessibleContext in class JTextComponent
    
    Returns:
    an AccessibleJTextArea that serves as the AccessibleContext of this JTextArea
