I try to act an "onchange" event on a JCombobox but the only way I Found is with the action event list , but it doesn't work anyone can help me please....
Best regards
 
Try adding a ActionListener and implementing the actionPerformed method of that interface.

Here is some example code:

public void actionPerformed( ActionEvent event )
{
Object source = event.getSource();

if( source == comboBox )
{
// insert code here
}
}

-gc "I don't look busy because I did it right the first time."
 
combo.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
yourMethodHere();
}
});
 
ghorr :

And I'd add a ChangeListener, it's stateChanged method would work for me.
