PONon-modal JDialog not displaying content?
text
Body
copied!<p>I am building a server program that receives a socket connection from a client. When the program initiates the server, I would like to display a dialog that displays "Waiting for connection..." as it waits. Once the connection is received, I would like to programatically close the window. As I do not want to block the execution of the program as it waits for the socket connection, I have used a non-modal dialog to display the message. This works, except that the dialog does not display the text that I would like it to. The dialog title displays fine, but the message pane does not. Why is this? I have tried several different ways to accomplish this, including the code below, all to no avail.</p> <pre><code>public class AboutDialog extends JDialog implements ActionListener { public AboutDialog(JFrame parent, String title, String message) { super(parent, title, false); if (parent != null) { Dimension parentSize = parent.getSize(); Point p = parent.getLocation(); setLocation(p.x + parentSize.width / 4, p.y + parentSize.height / 4); } JPanel messagePane = new JPanel(); messagePane.add(new JLabel(message)); getContentPane().add(messagePane); setDefaultCloseOperation(DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE); pack(); setLocationRelativeTo(null); setVisible(true); } public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) { setVisible(false); dispose(); } } </code></pre> <p>Just in case my explanation isn't clear, I pass "Waiting for connection..." into the AboutDialog constructor as the message parameter. Thanks for any guidance!</p>
