[java] How can I refresh or reload the JFrame?

I am doing project using Java and in that I need to reload whole JFrame after clicking particular button on that JFrame. How to do this?

This question is related to java swing jframe

The answer is


You should use this code

this.setVisible(false); //this will close frame i.e. NewJFrame

new NewJFrame().setVisible(true); // Now this will open NewJFrame for you again and will also get refreshed 

just use frame.setVisible(false); frame.setVisible(true); I've had this problem with JLabels with images, and this solved it


Try this code. I also faced the same problem, but some how I solved it.

public class KitchenUserInterface {

    private JFrame frame;
    private JPanel main_panel, northpanel , southpanel;
    private JLabel label;
    private JButton nextOrder;
    private JList list;

    private static KitchenUserInterface kitchenRunner ;

    public void setList(String[] order){
        kitchenRunner.frame.dispose();
        kitchenRunner.frame.setVisible(false);
        kitchenRunner= new KitchenUserInterface(order);

    }

    public KitchenUserInterface getInstance() {
        if(kitchenRunner == null) {
            synchronized(KitchenUserInterface.class) {
                if(kitchenRunner == null) {
                    kitchenRunner = new KitchenUserInterface();
                }
            }
        }


        return this.kitchenRunner;
    }

    private KitchenUserInterface() {


        frame = new JFrame("Lullaby's Kitchen");
        main_panel = new JPanel();
        main_panel.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
        frame.setContentPane(main_panel);



        northpanel = new JPanel();
        northpanel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());


        label = new JLabel("Kitchen");

        northpanel.add(label);


        main_panel.add(northpanel , BorderLayout.NORTH);


        frame.setSize(500 , 500 );
        frame.setVisible(true);
        frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    }

    private KitchenUserInterface (String[] order){
        this();
        list = new JList<String>(order);
        main_panel.add(list , BorderLayout.CENTER);

        southpanel = new JPanel();
         southpanel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());

         nextOrder = new JButton("Next Order Set");
         nextOrder.addActionListener(new OrderUpListener(list));
         southpanel.add(nextOrder);
         main_panel.add(southpanel, BorderLayout.SOUTH);



    }

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        KitchenUserInterface dat = kitchenRunner.getInstance();
        try{

        Thread.sleep(1500);
        System.out.println("Ready");
        dat.setList(OrderArray.getInstance().getOrders());
        }
        catch(Exception event) {
            System.out.println("Error sleep");
            System.out.println(event);
        }


        }

}

Here's a short code that might help.

    <yourJFrameName> main = new <yourJFrameName>();    

    main.setVisible(true);
    this.dispose();

where...

main.setVisible(true);

will run the JFrame again.

this.dispose();

will terminate the running window.
