public class JProgressBar
extends JComponent
implements SwingConstants, Accessible

A component that displays an integer value within a bounded interval. A progress bar typically communicates the progress of an event by displaying its percentage of completion and possibly a textual display of this percentage.

For further documentation and examples see How to Monitor Progress, a section in The Java Tutorial.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. A future release of Swing will provide support for long term persistence.

Field Detail

orientation

protected int orientation
The orientation to display the progress bar. The default is HORIZONTAL.

paintBorder

protected boolean paintBorder
Whether to display the border around the progress bar. The default is true.

model

protected BoundedRangeModel model
The data structure that holds the various values for the progress bar.

progressString

protected String progressString
A optional String that can be displayed on the progress bar. The default is null. Setting this to a non-null value does not imply that the String will be displayed.

paintString

protected boolean paintString
Whether to textually display a String on the progress bar. The default is false. Setting this to true will cause a textual display of the progress to de rendered on the progress bar. If the progressString is null, the percentage done to be displayed on the progress bar. If the progressString is non-null, it is rendered on the progress bar.

changeEvent

protected transient ChangeEvent changeEvent
Only one ChangeEvent is needed per instance since the event's only interesting property is the immutable source, which is the progress bar.

changeListener

protected ChangeListener changeListener
Constructor Detail

By default, the String is set to null and the StringPainted is not painted. The border is painted by default. Uses the defaultMinimum (0) and defaultMaximum (100). Uses the defaultMinimum for the initial value of the progress bar.

JProgressBar

public JProgressBar(int min,
                    int max)
Creates a horizontal progress bar, which is the default. By default, the String is set to null and the StringPainted is not painted. The border is painted by default. Uses the specified minimum and maximum. Uses the specified minimum for the initial value of the progress bar.

JProgressBar

public JProgressBar(int orient,
                    int min,
                    int max)
Creates a progress bar using the specified orientation, minimum, and maximum. By default, the String is set to null and the StringPainted is not painted. The border is painted by default. Sets the inital value of the progress bar to the specified minimum. The BoundedRangeModel that sits underneath the progress bar handles any issues that may arrise from improperly setting the minimum, value, and maximum on the progress bar.
