public class JComboBox<E>
extends JComponent
implements ItemSelectable, ListDataListener, ActionListener, Accessible
```
A component that combines a button or editable field and a drop-down list. The user can select a value from the drop-down list, which appears at the user's request. If you make the combo box editable, then the combo box includes an editable field into which the user can type a value.
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.

```
public JComboBox(ComboBoxModel<E> aModel)
```
    Creates a JComboBox that takes its items from an existing ComboBoxModel. Since the ComboBoxModel is provided, a combo box created using this constructor does not create a default combo box model and may impact how the insert, remove and add methods behave.
    
    Parameters:
    aModel - the ComboBoxModel that provides the displayed list of items
    See Also:
    DefaultComboBoxModel
  - JComboBox
```
public JComboBox(E[] items)
```
    Creates a JComboBox that contains the elements in the specified array. By default the first item in the array (and therefore the data model) becomes selected.
    
    Parameters:
    items - an array of objects to insert into the combo box
    See Also:
    DefaultComboBoxModel
  - JComboBox
```
public JComboBox(Vector<E> items)
```
    Creates a JComboBox that contains the elements in the specified Vector. By default the first item in the vector (and therefore the data model) becomes selected.
    
    Parameters:
    items - an array of vectors to insert into the combo box
    See Also:
    DefaultComboBoxModel
  - JComboBox
```
public JComboBox()
```
    Creates a JComboBox with a default data model. The default data model is an empty list of objects. Use addItem to add items. By default the first item in the data model becomes selected.

```
public ComboBoxUI getUI()
```
    Returns the L&F object that renders this component.
    
    Returns:
    the ComboBoxUI object that renders this component
  - setModel
```
public void setModel(ComboBoxModel<E> aModel)
```
    Sets the data model that the JComboBox uses to obtain the list of items.
    
    Parameters:
    aModel - the ComboBoxModel that provides the displayed list of items
  - getModel
```
public ComboBoxModel<E> getModel()
```
    Returns the data model currently used by the JComboBox.
    
    Returns:
    the ComboBoxModel that provides the displayed list of items
  - setLightWeightPopupEnabled
```
public void setLightWeightPopupEnabled(boolean aFlag)
```
    Sets the lightWeightPopupEnabled property, which provides a hint as to whether or not a lightweight Component should be used to contain the JComboBox, versus a heavyweight Component such as a Panel or a Window. The decision of lightweight versus heavyweight is ultimately up to the JComboBox. Lightweight windows are more efficient than heavyweight windows, but lightweight and heavyweight components do not mix well in a GUI. If your application mixes lightweight and heavyweight components, you should disable lightweight popups. The default value for the lightWeightPopupEnabled property is true, unless otherwise specified by the look and feel. Some look and feels always use heavyweight popups, no matter what the value of this property.
    See the article Mixing Heavy and Light Components on The Swing Connection This method fires a property changed event.
    
    Parameters:
    aFlag - if true, lightweight popups are desired
  - isLightWeightPopupEnabled
```
public boolean isLightWeightPopupEnabled()
```
    Gets the value of the lightWeightPopupEnabled property.
    
    Returns:
    the value of the lightWeightPopupEnabled property
    See Also:
    setLightWeightPopupEnabled(boolean)
  - setEditable
```
public void setEditable(boolean aFlag)
```
    Determines whether the JComboBox field is editable. An editable JComboBox allows the user to type into the field or selected an item from the list to initialize the field, after which it can be edited. (The editing affects only the field, the list item remains intact.) A non editable JComboBox displays the selected item in the field, but the selection cannot be modified.
    
    Parameters:
    aFlag - a boolean value, where true indicates that the field is editable
  - isEditable
```
public boolean isEditable()
```
    Returns true if the JComboBox is editable. By default, a combo box is not editable.
    
    Returns:
    true if the JComboBox is editable, else false
  - setMaximumRowCount
```
public void setMaximumRowCount(int count)
```
    Sets the maximum number of rows the JComboBox displays. If the number of objects in the model is greater than count, the combo box uses a scrollbar.
    
    Parameters:
    count - an integer specifying the maximum number of items to display in the list before using a scrollbar
  - getMaximumRowCount
```
public int getMaximumRowCount()
```
    Returns the maximum number of items the combo box can display without a scrollbar
    
    Returns:
    an integer specifying the maximum number of items that are displayed in the list before using a scrollbar
  - setRenderer
```
public void setRenderer(ListCellRenderer<? super E> aRenderer)
```
    Sets the renderer that paints the list items and the item selected from the list in the JComboBox field. The renderer is used if the JComboBox is not editable. If it is editable, the editor is used to render and edit the selected item.
    The default renderer displays a string or an icon. Other renderers can handle graphic images and composite items.
    To display the selected item, aRenderer.getListCellRendererComponent is called, passing the list object and an index of -1.
    
    Parameters:
    aRenderer - the ListCellRenderer that displays the selected item
    See Also:
    setEditor(javax.swing.ComboBoxEditor)
  - getRenderer
```
public ListCellRenderer<? super E> getRenderer()
```
    Returns the renderer used to display the selected item in the JComboBox field.
    
    Returns:
    the ListCellRenderer that displays the selected item.
  - setEditor
```
public void setEditor(ComboBoxEditor anEditor)
```
    Sets the editor used to paint and edit the selected item in the JComboBox field. The editor is used only if the receiving JComboBox is editable. If not editable, the combo box uses the renderer to paint the selected item.
    
    Parameters:
    anEditor - the ComboBoxEditor that displays the selected item
    See Also:
    setRenderer(javax.swing.ListCellRenderer<? super E>)
  - getEditor
```
public ComboBoxEditor getEditor()
```
    Returns the editor used to paint and edit the selected item in the JComboBox field.
    
    Returns:
    the ComboBoxEditor that displays the selected item
  - setSelectedItem
```
public void setSelectedItem(Object anObject)
```
    Sets the selected item in the combo box display area to the object in the argument. If anObject is in the list, the display area shows anObject selected.
    If anObject is not in the list and the combo box is uneditable, it will not change the current selection. For editable combo boxes, the selection will change to anObject.
    If this constitutes a change in the selected item, ItemListeners added to the combo box will be notified with one or two ItemEvents. If there is a current selected item, an ItemEvent will be fired and the state change will be ItemEvent.DESELECTED. If anObject is in the list and is not currently selected then an ItemEvent will be fired and the state change will be ItemEvent.SELECTED.
    ActionListeners added to the combo box will be notified with an ActionEvent when this method is called.
    
    Parameters:
    anObject - the list object to select; use null to clear the selection
  - getSelectedItem
```
public Object getSelectedItem()
```
    Returns the current selected item.
    If the combo box is editable, then this value may not have been added to the combo box with addItem, insertItemAt or the data constructors.
    
    Returns:
    the current selected Object
    See Also:
    setSelectedItem(java.lang.Object)
  - setSelectedIndex
```
public void setSelectedIndex(int anIndex)
```
    Selects the item at index anIndex.
    
    Parameters:
    anIndex - an integer specifying the list item to select, where 0 specifies the first item in the list and -1 indicates no selection
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if anIndex < -1 or anIndex is greater than or equal to size
  - getSelectedIndex
```
public int getSelectedIndex()
```
    Returns the first item in the list that matches the given item. The result is not always defined if the JComboBox allows selected items that are not in the list. Returns -1 if there is no selected item or if the user specified an item which is not in the list.
    
    Returns:
    an integer specifying the currently selected list item, where 0 specifies the first item in the list; or -1 if no item is selected or if the currently selected item is not in the list
  - getPrototypeDisplayValue
```
public E getPrototypeDisplayValue()
```
    Returns the "prototypical display" value - an Object used for the calculation of the display height and width.
    
    Returns:
    the value of the prototypeDisplayValue property
    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:
    setPrototypeDisplayValue(E)
  - setPrototypeDisplayValue
```
public void setPrototypeDisplayValue(E prototypeDisplayValue)
```
    Sets the prototype display value used to calculate the size of the display for the UI portion.
    If a prototype display value is specified, the preferred size of the combo box is calculated by configuring the renderer with the prototype display value and obtaining its preferred size. Specifying the preferred display value is often useful when the combo box will be displaying large amounts of data. If no prototype display value has been specified, the renderer must be configured for each value from the model and its preferred size obtained, which can be relatively expensive.
    
    Parameters:
    prototypeDisplayValue -
    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:
    getPrototypeDisplayValue()
  - addItem
```
public void addItem(E item)
```
    Adds an item to the item list. This method works only if the JComboBox uses a mutable data model.
    Warning: Focus and keyboard navigation problems may arise if you add duplicate String objects. A workaround is to add new objects instead of String objects and make sure that the toString() method is defined. For example:
```
   comboBox.addItem(makeObj("Item 1"));
   comboBox.addItem(makeObj("Item 1"));
   ...
   private Object makeObj(final String item)  {
     return new Object() { public String toString() { return item; } };
   }
 
```
    Parameters:
    item - the item to add to the list
    See Also:
    MutableComboBoxModel
  - insertItemAt

    Since:
    
    1.4
    
    See Also:
    addPopupMenuListener(javax.swing.event.PopupMenuListener)
  - firePopupMenuCanceled
```
public void firePopupMenuCanceled()

  - setActionCommand
```
public void setActionCommand(String aCommand)
```
    Sets the action command that should be included in the event sent to action listeners.
    
    Parameters:
    aCommand - a string containing the "command" that is sent to action listeners; the same listener can then do different things depending on the command it receives
  - getActionCommand
```
public String getActionCommand()
```
    Returns the action command that is included in the event sent to action listeners.
    
    Returns:
    the string containing the "command" that is sent to action listeners.
  - setAction
```
public void setAction(Action a)
```
    Sets the Action for the ActionEvent source. The new Action replaces any previously set Action but does not affect ActionListeners independently added with addActionListener. If the Action is already a registered ActionListener for the ActionEvent source, it is not re-registered.
    Setting the Action results in immediately changing all the properties described in Swing Components Supporting Action. Subsequently, the combobox's properties are automatically updated as the Action's properties change.
    This method uses three other methods to set and help track the Action's property values. It uses the configurePropertiesFromAction method to immediately change the combobox's properties. To track changes in the Action's property values, this method registers the PropertyChangeListener returned by createActionPropertyChangeListener. The default PropertyChangeListener invokes the actionPropertyChanged method when a property in the Action changes.
    
    Parameters:
    a - the Action for the JComboBox, or null.
    Since:
    
    1.3
    
    See Also:
    Action, getAction(), configurePropertiesFromAction(javax.swing.Action), createActionPropertyChangeListener(javax.swing.Action), actionPropertyChanged(javax.swing.Action, java.lang.String)
  - getAction
```
public Action getAction()
```
    Returns the currently set Action for this ActionEvent source, or null if no Action is set.
    
    Returns:
    the Action for this ActionEvent source; or null
    Since:
    
    1.3
    
    See Also:
    Action, setAction(javax.swing.Action)
  - configurePropertiesFromAction
```
protected void configurePropertiesFromAction(Action a)
```
    Sets the properties on this combobox to match those in the specified Action. Refer to Swing Components Supporting Action for more details as to which properties this sets.
    
    Parameters:
    a - the Action from which to get the properties, or null
    Since:
    
    1.3
    
    See Also:
    Action, setAction(javax.swing.Action)
  - createActionPropertyChangeListener
```
protected PropertyChangeListener createActionPropertyChangeListener(Action a)
```
    Creates and returns a PropertyChangeListener that is responsible for listening for changes from the specified Action and updating the appropriate properties.
    Warning: If you subclass this do not create an anonymous inner class. If you do the lifetime of the combobox will be tied to that of the Action.
    
    Parameters:
    a - the combobox's action
    Since:
    
    1.3
    
    See Also:

                         String propertyName)
```
    Updates the combobox's state in response to property changes in associated action. This method is invoked from the PropertyChangeListener returned from createActionPropertyChangeListener. Subclasses do not normally need to invoke this. Subclasses that support additional Action properties should override this and configurePropertiesFromAction.
    Refer to the table at Swing Components Supporting Action for a list of the properties this method sets.
    
    Parameters:
    action - the Action associated with this combobox
    propertyName - the name of the property that changed
