[java] Multiple input in JOptionPane.showInputDialog

Is there a way to create multiple input in JOptionPane.showInputDialog instead of just one input?

This question is related to java swing joptionpane

The answer is


Yes. You know that you can put any Object into the Object parameter of most JOptionPane.showXXX methods, and often that Object happens to be a JPanel.

In your situation, perhaps you could use a JPanel that has several JTextFields in it:

import javax.swing.*;

public class JOptionPaneMultiInput {
   public static void main(String[] args) {
      JTextField xField = new JTextField(5);
      JTextField yField = new JTextField(5);

      JPanel myPanel = new JPanel();
      myPanel.add(new JLabel("x:"));
      myPanel.add(xField);
      myPanel.add(Box.createHorizontalStrut(15)); // a spacer
      myPanel.add(new JLabel("y:"));
      myPanel.add(yField);

      int result = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, myPanel, 
               "Please Enter X and Y Values", JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION);
      if (result == JOptionPane.OK_OPTION) {
         System.out.println("x value: " + xField.getText());
         System.out.println("y value: " + yField.getText());
      }
   }
}

this is my solution

JTextField username = new JTextField();
JTextField password = new JPasswordField();
Object[] message = {
    "Username:", username,
    "Password:", password
};

int option = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, message, "Login", JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION);
if (option == JOptionPane.OK_OPTION) {
    if (username.getText().equals("h") && password.getText().equals("h")) {
        System.out.println("Login successful");
    } else {
        System.out.println("login failed");
    }
} else {
    System.out.println("Login canceled");
}
