Can a user-chosen image be inserted directly into a JEditorPane?
- by JIM
What I am trying to do is open up a JFilechooser that filters jpeg,gif and png images, then gets the user's selection and inserts it into the JEditorPane. Can this be done? or am i attempting something impossible? Here is a sample of my program.(insert is a JMenuItem and mainText is a JEditorPane)
insert.addActionListener(new ActionListener(){
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e){
JFileChooser imageChooser = new JFileChooser();
imageChooser.setFileFilter(new FileNameExtensionFilter("Image Format","jpg","jpeg","gif","png"));
int choice = imageChooser.showOpenDialog(mainText);
if (choice == JFileChooser.APPROVE_OPTION) {
mainText.add(imageChooser.getSelectedFile());
}
}
});
What i tried to do is use the add method, i know it's wrong but just to give you an idea of what i'm trying to do.
Before you complain, i'm sorry about the code formatting, i don't really know all the conventions of what is considered good or bad style.
Thank you very much.
