I'm trying to make a multi-line JTextField using JTextArea an an action map with Java.
Here's the important part of the code:
Code:
input.getInputMap().put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("ENTER"),"submit_data");
InputMap im = input.getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_FOCUSED);
im.put(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("ENTER"), "submit_data");
ActionMap am = new JTextArea().getActionMap();
am.put("submit_data",
new AbstractAction("submit_data") {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
System.out.println("Someone hit enter");
}
}
);
I can tell that something is working because "ENTER" no longer creates a new line. However, it never prints "Someone hit enter." What's wrong?
Also, please excuse my typo in the title. It appears that there is no way to fix it.
That worked!
