JTextComponent: the parent class for all the components used as textual views.

JTextComponent describes the common behavior shared by all text components:
a Highlighter for selection support,
a Caret for navigation throughout the content,
a set of commands supported through the actions property (an array of Action implementers),
a set of key bindings through a Keymap or InputMap/ActionMap combination,
an implementation of the Scrollable interface so that each of the specific text components can be placed within a JScrollPane, and the text stored within the component.

Limiting the Capacity of a JTextComponent

   <source lang="java">

import javax.swing.JTextField; import javax.swing.text.AttributeSet; import javax.swing.text.BadLocationException; import javax.swing.text.JTextComponent; import javax.swing.text.PlainDocument; public class Main {

   JTextComponent textComp = new JTextField();
   textComp.setDocument(new FixedSizePlainDocument(10));
 }

} class FixedSizePlainDocument extends PlainDocument {

 int maxSize;
 public FixedSizePlainDocument(int limit) {
   maxSize = limit;
 }
 public void insertString(int offs, String str, AttributeSet a) throws BadLocationException {
   if ((getLength() + str.length()) <= maxSize) {
     super.insertString(offs, str, a);
   } else {
     throw new BadLocationException("Insertion exceeds max size of document", offs);
   }
 }

Listening for Caret Movement Events in a JTextComponent

Listening to Text Components Events with an InputVerifier

Do field-level validation of a JTextField. Before focus moves out of a text component, the verifier runs. If not valid, the verifier rejects the change and keeps input focus within the given component.

   <source lang="java">

   frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
   JTextField textField = new JTextField();
   frame.add(textField, BorderLayout.NORTH);
   frame.add(new JTextField(), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
   InputVerifier verifier = new InputVerifier() {
     public boolean verify(JComponent input) {
       final JTextComponent source = (JTextComponent)input;
       String text = source.getText();
       if ((text.length() != 0) && !(text.equals("Exit"))) {
             JOptionPane.showMessageDialog (frame, "Can"t leave.",
               "Error Dialog", JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
         return false;
       } else {
         return true;
       }
