JTextComponent
is the base class for swing text
components. It tries to be compatible with the
java.awt.TextComponent
class
where it can reasonably do so. Also provided are other services
for additional flexibility (beyond the pluggable UI and bean
support).
You can find information on how to use the functionality
this class provides in
General Rules for Using Text Components,
a section in The Java Tutorial.
CaretListener
interface that have been registered with the text component.
The UI will install a default caret unless a customized caret
has been set.
Action
interface,
using the TextAction
implementation.
The set of commands supported by the text component can be
found with the getActions()
method. These actions
can be bound to key events, fired from buttons, etc.
A Keymap
lets an application bind key
strokes to actions.
In order to allow keymaps to be shared across multiple text components, they
can use actions that extend TextAction
.
TextAction
can determine which JTextComponent
most recently has or had focus and therefore is the subject of
the action (In the case that the ActionEvent
sent to the action doesn't contain the target text component as its source).
The input method framework
lets text components interact with input methods, separate software
components that preprocess events to let users enter thousands of
different characters using keyboards with far fewer keys.
JTextComponent
is an active client of
the framework, so it implements the preferred user interface for interacting
with input methods. As a consequence, some key events do not reach the text
component because they are handled by an input method, and some text input
reaches the text component as committed text within an InputMethodEvent
instead of as a key event.
The complete text input is the combination of the characters in
keyTyped
key events and committed text in input method events.
The AWT listener model lets applications attach event listeners to components in order to bind events to actions. Swing encourages the use of keymaps instead of listeners, but maintains compatibility with listeners by giving the listeners a chance to steal an event by consuming it.
Keyboard event and input method events are handled in the following stages, with each stage capable of consuming the event:
Stage | KeyEvent | InputMethodEvent |
1. | input methods | (generated here) |
2. | focus manager | |
3. | registered key listeners | registered input method listeners |
4. | input method handling in JTextComponent | |
5. | keymap handling using the current keymap | |
6. | keyboard handling in JComponent (e.g. accelerators, component navigation, etc.) |
To maintain compatibility with applications that listen to key events but are not aware of input method events, the input method handling in stage 4 provides a compatibility mode for components that do not process input method events. For these components, the committed text is converted to keyTyped key events and processed in the key event pipeline starting at stage 3 instead of in the input method event pipeline.
By default the component will create a keymap (named DEFAULT_KEYMAP) that is shared by all JTextComponent instances as the default keymap. Typically a look-and-feel implementation will install a different keymap that resolves to the default keymap for those bindings not found in the different keymap. The minimal bindings include:
The model is defined by the Document
interface.
This is intended to provide a flexible text storage mechanism
that tracks change during edits and can be extended to more sophisticated
models. The model interfaces are meant to capture the capabilities of
expression given by SGML, a system used to express a wide variety of
content.
Each modification to the document causes notification of the
details of the change to be sent to all observers in the form of a
DocumentEvent
which allows the views to stay up to date with the model.
This event is sent to observers that have implemented the
DocumentListener
interface and registered interest with the model being observed.
modelToView(int)
and viewToModel(java.awt.Point)
for determining this information.
UndoableEdit
records that can be used in conjunction
with a history buffer to provide the undo/redo support.
The support is provided by the Document model, which allows
one to attach UndoableEditListener implementations.
AbstractDocument
describes the assumptions of the protection provided.
The methods that are safe to call asynchronously are marked
with comments.
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.

dragEnabled
property,
which must be true
to enable
automatic drag handling (the first part of drag and drop)
on this component.
The transferHandler
property needs to be set
to a non-null
value for the drag to do
anything. The default value of the dragEnabled
property
is false
.
When automatic drag handling is enabled,
most look and feels begin a drag-and-drop operation
whenever the user presses the mouse button over a selection
and then moves the mouse a few pixels.
Setting this property to true
can therefore have a subtle effect on
how selections behave.
Some look and feels might not support automatic drag and drop;
they will ignore this property. You can work around such
look and feels by modifying the component
to directly call the exportAsDrag
method of a
TransferHandler
.

public static void loadKeymap(Keymap map, JTextComponent.KeyBinding[] bindings, Action[] actions)
Loads a keymap with a bunch of bindings. This can be used to take a static table of definitions and load them into some keymap. The following example illustrates an example of binding some keys to the cut, copy, and paste actions associated with a JTextComponent. A code fragment to accomplish this might look as follows:
static final JTextComponent.KeyBinding[] defaultBindings = {
new JTextComponent.KeyBinding(
KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_C, InputEvent.CTRL_MASK),
DefaultEditorKit.copyAction),
new JTextComponent.KeyBinding(
KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_V, InputEvent.CTRL_MASK),
DefaultEditorKit.pasteAction),
new JTextComponent.KeyBinding(
KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_X, InputEvent.CTRL_MASK),
DefaultEditorKit.cutAction),
};
JTextComponent c = new JTextPane();
Keymap k = c.getKeymap();
JTextComponent.loadKeymap(k, defaultBindings, c.getActions());
The sets of bindings and actions may be empty but must be
non-null
.

selectionEnd
- the end position of the text >= 0public void select(int selectionStart, int selectionEnd)
This method sets the start and end positions of the selected text, enforcing the restriction that the start position must be greater than or equal to zero. The end position must be greater than or equal to the start position, and less than or equal to the length of the text component's text.
If the caller supplies values that are inconsistent or out of bounds, the method enforces these constraints silently, and without failure. Specifically, if the start position or end position is greater than the length of the text, it is reset to equal the text length. If the start position is less than zero, it is reset to zero, and if the end position is less than the start position, it is reset to the start position.
This call is provided for backward compatibility.
It is routed to a call to setCaretPosition
followed by a call to moveCaretPosition
.
The preferred way to manage selection is by calling
those methods directly.
