public class Utilities

extends java.lang.Object

A set of utility classes. Basically I hate that, but some things are just functions.

Constructor Summary

Utilities()

Method Summary

static void	computeMnemonicsFor(javax.swing.JComponent[] comps) Dynamically sets the mnemonics on the JLabel instances in the passed set of JComponents.
static int	showOptionDialog(java.awt.Component parentComponent, java.lang.Object message, java.lang.String title, int optionType, int messageType, javax.swing.Icon icon, java.lang.Object[] options, java.lang.Object initialValue) This is equivalent to the JOptionPane.showOptionDialog() call with the same parameters, but solves a problem in jdk 1.4 with the passed initialValue argument.

showOptionDialog

public static int showOptionDialog(java.awt.Component parentComponent,
                                   java.lang.Object message,
                                   java.lang.String title,
                                   int optionType,
                                   int messageType,
                                   javax.swing.Icon icon,
                                   java.lang.Object[] options,
                                   java.lang.Object initialValue)

This is equivalent to the JOptionPane.showOptionDialog() call with the same parameters, but solves a problem in jdk 1.4 with the passed initialValue argument. This is not properly handled in the JDK.

The code below is from the version @(#)JOptionPane.java 1.81 03/01/23 with a slight modification. Instead of trying to set the initial value nothing is done which results in the same behavior as 1.3. Setting the initial value is not possible how it is done in the original code, would require a major rework.

computeMnemonicsFor
