Class LogTextArea

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.awt.image.ImageObserver, java.awt.MenuContainer, java.io.Serializable, javax.accessibility.Accessible, javax.swing.Scrollable
    public class LogTextArea
extends javax.swing.JTextArea
    A JTextArea encompassing a PrintWriter that can be used as an alternative to the standard System.out or System.err objects. Writing to this PrintWriter will append the text to the text area.

    This code is based on an idea by Real Gagnon published at:
    tanksoftware.com/juk/developer/src/com/tanksoftware/util/RedirectedFrame.java

                   java.io.File logFile)
        Constructs a new text area for logging messages. The area is readonly and wraps lines as they exceed the right margin. Alternatively messages can be logged in a text file.
        Parameters:
        rows - same as in JTextArea()
        columns - same as in JTextArea()
        useLogFile - true to have a copy of the output logged into a file
        logFile - if useLogFile is true, this is the file into which the log is written. if useLogFile is false, you can pass null here.

      • append

        public void append​(java.lang.String str)
        This method is public because of the superclass method. Appending text using this method directly will not use the internal print stream and thus not appear in a log file.
        Overrides:
        append in class javax.swing.JTextArea

      • setText

        public void setText​(java.lang.String str)
        Replaces the gadget's text. This is useful for clearing the gadget. This doesn't affect the PrintStream or the log file.
        Overrides:
        setText in class javax.swing.text.JTextComponent
        Parameters:
        str - the new text to replace the gadgets content or null to clear the gadget.
