I have a JComboBox with a custom Editor.
Why I make a selection from the dropdown list, I find that setItem() method of the Editor is called twice with the same selected item from the drop list.
Why is that?

As explained here:
It fires twice because one item becomes DESELECTED and another becomes SELECTED. Event fires for both. You can check which one occured by calling
e.getStateChange().

Sorry, a little confused: setItem(Object) doesn't take an event. When do I have a hold of of the event? – Sam May 19 '14 at 04:28

If anyone has any thoughts, I would appreciate it! – Sam May 20 '14 at 00:48

Not sure, but an event listener is probably the only way to get the event object. – APerson May 21 '14 at 01:29
