I've been searching and I can't find a place where I understand how to create a JFormattedTextField that only allows integers as input. Is it even possible?
edit found this code from @HovercraftFullOfEels:
public class QuantFilter extends DocumentFilter {
@Override
public void insertString(FilterBypass fb, int offset, String string,
AttributeSet attr) throws BadLocationException {
Document doc = fb.getDocument();
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.append(doc.getText(0, doc.getLength()));
sb.insert(offset, string);
if (test(sb.toString())) {
super.insertString(fb, offset, string, (javax.swing.text.AttributeSet) attr);
}
}
private boolean test(String text) {
try {
Integer.parseInt(text);
return true;
} catch (NumberFormatException e) {
return false;
}
}
@Override
public void replace(FilterBypass fb, int offset, int length, String text,
AttributeSet attrs) throws BadLocationException {
Document doc = fb.getDocument();
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.append(doc.getText(0, doc.getLength()));
sb.replace(offset, offset + length, text);
if (test(sb.toString())) {
super.replace(fb, offset, length, text, (javax.swing.text.AttributeSet) attrs);
}
}
@Override
public void remove(FilterBypass fb, int offset, int length)
throws BadLocationException {
Document doc = fb.getDocument();
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.append(doc.getText(0, doc.getLength()));
sb.delete(offset, offset + length);
if (test(sb.toString())) {
super.remove(fb, offset, length);
}
}
}
The overrides say that it should override a method, and if I take it doesn't enter the insertString()
