Previously i have created two posts about a simple Swing Date Picker.
Here comes a better solution – JCalendar.
JCalendar is Java Bean which provides a complete feature of a Date Picker in Java. For more information, please visit JCalendar Java Bean, a Java Date Chooser
The following only shows the basic usage of JCalendar. Hope you could explore its full features base on it.
1. Download the JCalendar.jar @ here
2. Create the following class and run it
Demo.java
import java.awt.EventQueue; import javax.swing.JFrame; import com.toedter.calendar.JDateChooser; public class Demo { private JFrame frame; /** * Launch the application. */ public static void main(String[] args) { EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() { public void run() { try { Demo window = new Demo(); window.frame.setVisible(true); } catch (Exception e) { e.printStackTrace(); } } }); } /** * Create the application. */ public Demo() { initialize(); } /** * Initialize the contents of the frame. */ private void initialize() { frame = new JFrame(); frame.setBounds(100, 100, 450, 300); frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE); frame.getContentPane().setLayout(null); JDateChooser dateChooser = new JDateChooser(); dateChooser.setBounds(20, 20, 200, 20); frame.getContentPane().add(dateChooser); } }
3. See what you get
Done =)
