All Implemented Interfaces:
java.awt.event.ActionListener, java.awt.image.ImageObserver, java.awt.MenuContainer, java.io.Serializable, java.util.EventListener, javax.accessibility.Accessible, javax.swing.event.ListSelectionListener, javax.swing.RootPaneContainer, javax.swing.WindowConstants

public class ListDialog
extends javax.swing.JDialog
implements java.awt.event.ActionListener, javax.swing.event.ListSelectionListener

Use this modal dialog to let the user choose one string from a long list. See ListDialogRunner.java for an example of using ListDialog. The basics:

 String[] choices = { "A", "long", "array", "of", "strings" };
 
 String selectedName = ListDialog.showDialog(componentInControllingFrame,
                locatorComponent, "A description of the list:", "Dialog Title",
                choices, choices[0]);

Set up and show the dialog. The first Component argument determines which frame the dialog depends on; it should be a component in the dialog's controlling frame. The second Component argument should be null if you want the dialog to come up with its left corner in the center of the screen; otherwise, it should be the component on top of which the dialog should appear.
