| SelectAllUtils | | public class SelectAllUtils (Code) | | SelectAllUtils is a utility class to select all the text
in a text component when the component first time receives focus. It's very easy to use it.
JTextField field = new JTextField();
SelectAllUtils.install(field);
The component you pass in can be a JTextComponent or any container that contains
one or more JTextComponents. All JTextComponents will be installed such a
focus listener to select all when it gets focus for the first time. For example,
you can install it to an editable JComboBox.
JComboBox comboBox = new JComboBox();
comboBox.setEditable(true);
SelectAllUtils.install(comboBox);
Although JComboBox is not JTextComponent but it contains a JTextField so it
will still work. However please make sure call it after the call to
comboBox.setEditable(true). Otherwise it will not work because JTextField is not created
until setEditable(true) is called.
