Class DropDownMultiSelectionTextField<T>

  • Type Parameters:
    T - the type of data stored in the drop down
    All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.awt.image.ImageObserver, java.awt.MenuContainer, java.io.Serializable, javax.accessibility.Accessible, javax.swing.Scrollable, javax.swing.SwingConstants

    public class DropDownMultiSelectionTextField<T>
    extends DropDownSelectionTextField<T>
    Extension of the DropDownSelectionTextField that allows multiple items to be selected.

    Note that multiple selection introduces some display complications that are not an issue with single selection. Namely:

    • how do you display multiple selected items in the preview pane
    • how do you display those same items in the drop down text field
    The solution here is to:
    • let the preview panel operate normally; it will simply display the preview text for whatever was last selected
    • display all selected items in the drop down text field as a comma-delimited list

      • addDropDownSelectionChoiceListener

        public void addDropDownSelectionChoiceListener​(DropDownSelectionChoiceListener<T> listener)
        Description copied from class: DropDownTextField
        Adds a listener that will be called back when the user makes a choice from the drop-down list. A choice is a user action that triggers the selection window to be closed and updates the text field.

        Note: the listener is stored in a weak data structure, so you must maintain a reference to the listener you pass in--anonymous classes or lambdas will not work.

        Overrides:
        addDropDownSelectionChoiceListener in class DropDownTextField<T>
      • getSelectedValues

        public java.util.List<T> getSelectedValues()
        Returns a list of all selected items in the list.
        Returns:
        the selected items
      • setSelectedValue

        public void setSelectedValue​(T value)
        Description copied from class: DropDownTextField
        Sets the current selection on this text field. This will store the provided value and set the text of the text field to be the name of that value. If the given value is null, then the text of this field will be cleared.
        Overrides:
        setSelectedValue in class DropDownTextField<T>
        Parameters:
        value - The value that is to be the current selection or null to clear the selected value of this text field.
