Java - Check if JTextField is empty or not

Question

So I got know this is a popular question and already found the solution  But when I try this it doesn t work properly   My JTextField is empty and the button isn t enabled  When I write something in my textfield the button doesn t get enabled    So my program should check this field every second whether it s empty or not  As soon as someone writes something into the textfield the button should be enabled     loginbt   new JButton  Login        loginbt addActionListener new loginHandler         add loginbt        if name getText   equals                loginbt setEnabled false        else           loginbt setEnabled true

Try with keyListener in your textfield  jTextField addKeyListener new KeyListener               Override         public void keyTyped KeyEvent e                        Override         public void keyPressed KeyEvent e                if  text getText   length    gt   1                    button setEnabled true                 else                   button setEnabled false                                     Override         public void keyReleased KeyEvent e

What you need is something called Document Listener  See How to Write a Document Listener

User · Answer

For that you need to add change listener  a DocumentListener which reacts for change in the text  for your JTextField  and within actionPerformed    you need to update the loginButton to enabled disabled depending on the whether the JTextfield is empty or not    Below is what I found from this thread   yourJTextField getDocument   addDocumentListener new DocumentListener       public void changedUpdate DocumentEvent e        changed          public void removeUpdate DocumentEvent e        changed          public void insertUpdate DocumentEvent e        changed           public void changed          if  yourJTextField getText   equals              loginButton setEnabled false               else          loginButton setEnabled true

Well  the code that renders the button enabled disabled    if name getText   equals            loginbt setEnabled false    else       loginbt setEnabled true       must be written in javax swing event ChangeListener and attached to the field  see here   A change in field s value should trigger the listener to reevaluate the object state  What did you expect
