I have a swing GUI named SpyBiteDemo, it will call another class(Parser) and do some calculations and show some data in a jtable inside this GUI(SpyBiteDemo). I have a jbutton1 and I want to when click on it to show my timer to begin like 1,2,3,4,5,....seconds
what happens is my timer is running correctly however it does not show value unless it is done with all the program that is filling the jtable which means the action it is detecting is I perform the action after jtable appears.
I am a complete newbie on Java for event listeners and I have searched timer, timer task, schedule, everything and could not understand what's wrong.I also tried while(true) and did not fix it.I also tried duration of 1000,0,everything no affects.
I tried to use action command,sleeping the thread, it did not help.here is what I did:
public class SpyBiteDemo extends javax.swing.JFrame {
/**
* Creates new form SpyBiteDemo
*/
private long startTime;
Timer timer = new Timer(0, new TimerListener());
private class TimerListener implements ActionListener {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent aEvt) {
long time = (System.currentTimeMillis() - startTime) / 1000;
label3.setText(time + " seconds");
}
}
private void jButton1ActionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
// TODO add your handling code here:
jButton1.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
timer.start();
}
});
startTime = evt.getWhen();
String SeedUrl = jTextField1.getText();
Parser P = new Parser(this);
jTable2.setVisible(true);
}
}
it will start showing label3 value only after it is filling the jtable on my jframe.I want the timer to start from when I am clicking the button.
with trashgod's links I had come up with this example which is comepletely runnable on your machine, this works perfect except that when I the program finishes, it does not stop the timer since I don't know where to do it, I know I should do it in addPropertyChangeListener, however I do not have timer value.
