I'm learning Java right now, and one of the projects I've been working on as practice lately is just a simple text editor (using Swing). The one thing, though, that I can't for the life of me figure out, is how to add scroll bars to the text box if the text overflows.
Here's some of my code (There's way more, I just simplified what I have right now that makes the frame and text box):
JTextArea t;
JFrame f;
JPanel c;
JScrollPane b;
b = new JScrollPane();
b.setAutoscrolls(true);
f = new JFrame("JNotepad");
f.setBounds(300, 200, 500, 500);
c = new JPanel();
f.setContentPane(c);
t = new JTextArea();
t.setFont(Font.decode("Courier New-14"));
b.add(t);
c.add(b);
f.setJMenuBar(/* Menu bar is "m". This works just fine. */m);
f.setVisible(true);
A little sloppy, I know, but I had to copy and paste and reorganize it from the rest of my code. I can honestly say I don't even have a remote idea as to how you add scroll bars, what's there is just a guess. The notepad works, but the scrollbars don't.
I also have an anaonymous inner class designed to resize the textbox to the size of the form if the mouse is moved over it, because I didn't know how else to do it (there was no "onResizeForm" event, was there?), so if that's interfering, well, let me know and I'll figure something out.
