Let's see the declaration for javax.swing.JList class.

public class JList extends JComponent implements Scrollable, Accessible

listener) notified each time a change to the selection
occurs.

component.

void setListData(Object[] listData) It is used to create a read-only ListModel

Java JList Example

import javax.swing.*;
public class ListExample
{
ListExample(){
JFrame f= new JFrame();
DefaultListModel<String> l1 = new DefaultListModel<>();
l1.addElement("Item1");
l1.addElement("Item2");
l1.addElement("Item3");
l1.addElement("Item4");
JList<String> list = new JList<>(l1);
list.setBounds(100,100, 75,75);
f.add(list);
f.setSize(400,400);
f.setLayout(null);
f.setVisible(true);
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
new ListExample();
}}

Output:
Java JList Example with ActionListener

final JLabel label = new JLabel();
label.setSize(500,100);
JButton b=new JButton("Show");
b.setBounds(200,150,80,30);
final DefaultListModel<String> l1 = new DefaultListModel<>();
l1.addElement("C");
l1.addElement("C++");
l1.addElement("Java");
l1.addElement("PHP");
final JList<String> list1 = new JList<>(l1);
list1.setBounds(100,100, 75,75);
DefaultListModel<String> l2 = new DefaultListModel<>();
l2.addElement("Turbo C++");
l2.addElement("Struts");
l2.addElement("Spring");
l2.addElement("YII");
final JList<String> list2 = new JList<>(l2);
list2.setBounds(100,200, 75,75);
f.add(list1); f.add(list2); f.add(b); f.add(label);
f.setSize(450,450);
f.setLayout(null);
f.setVisible(true);
b.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
String data = "";
if (list1.getSelectedIndex() != -1) {
data = "Programming language Selected: " + list1.getSelectedValue();
label.setText(data);
}
if(list2.getSelectedIndex() != -1){
data += ", FrameWork Selected: ";
for(Object frame :list2.getSelectedValues()){
data += frame + " ";
}
}
label.setText(data);
}
});
}
public static void main(String args[])
{
new ListExample();
}}
