Populating a JEditorPane

Next time I will post in swing forum.

I had a look at the read() in the API and im not sure how to use it.

I have done what you said although I need to get the variable s to the CreateComponents() method to fill the JEditorPane and I do not know how to do this - maybe if i use this.s = s; and put the appropriate method underneath although I am not sure.

This is my code:

import java.net.*;

import javax.swing.text.html.*;

import javax.swing.text.*;

import javax.swing.event.*;

import javax.swing.*;

import java.io.*;

import java.awt.*;

import java.awt.event.*;

import java.util.*;

/**

* Requires RatServer to be running

* set path="C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_08\bin"

*/

public class RatClient implements ActionListener

{

JTextField host = null;

JTextField port = null;

JTextField cmd = null;

JEditorPane jep = null;

public Component createComponents()

{

jep = new JEditorPane(read(String s));

JLabel hostLabel = new JLabel("Enter host: ", SwingConstants.LEFT);

host = new JTextField("192.168.0.4");

JLabel portLabel = new JLabel("Enter port: ", SwingConstants.LEFT);

port = new JTextField("80");

JLabel cmdLabel = new JLabel("Enter command: ", SwingConstants.LEFT);

cmd = new JTextField("E:\\Test.exe");

JButton button = new JButton("Connect");

button.addActionListener(this);

JPanel pane = new JPanel(new GridLayout(0, 2));

pane.add(jep);

//pane.add(browserScroll);

pane.add(hostLabel);

pane.add(host);

pane.add(portLabel);

pane.add(port);

pane.add(cmdLabel);

pane.add(cmd);

pane.add(button);

pane.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(180, 30, 30, 90));

return pane;

}

public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)

{

String host2 = host.getText();

String port2 = port.getText();

String command = cmd.getText();

try

{

process(host2, port2, command);

}

catch(IOException ioe)

{

System.out.println(ioe);

System.exit(1);

}

}

private static void Gui()

{

//Create and set up the window.

JFrame frame = new JFrame("RatClient");

frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

RatClient app = new RatClient();

Component contents = app.createComponents();

frame.getContentPane().add(contents);

//Display the window.

frame.pack();

frame.setVisible(true);

}

public void process(String host2, String port2, String command) throws IOException

{

Socket echoSocket = null;

PrintWriter out = null;

BufferedReader in = null;

try

{

echoSocket = new Socket(host2, Integer.parseInt(port2)); // Socket is host and port combined

out = new PrintWriter(echoSocket.getOutputStream(), true);

in = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(echoSocket.getInputStream()));

}

catch (UnknownHostException e)

{

System.err.println("Don't know about host: " + host2);

System.exit(1);

}

catch (IOException e)

{

System.out.println("Couldn't get I/O for the connection to: "+ host2);

System.exit(1);

}

//-SEND ANYTHING TO THE SERVER HERE-

//TO SEND TO SERVER: write to 'out'

//TO READ FROM SERVER: read from 'in'

out.println(command); //send it to the server

String str,s ="";

while ((str = in.readLine()) != null)

{

s = s + str + "\n";

}

System.out.println(s);

//-END SENDING TO SERVER

out.close();

in.close();

echoSocket.close();

}

public static void main(String[] args)

{

javax.swing.SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable()

{

public void run()

{

Gui();

}

});

}

}

Thanks

No you don't. The idea is to build the GUI with all the components. Then in your code you change the contents of the editor pane as required.

You don't need a variable "s". You read directly into the editor pane using the read method.
