Password Input Box

[Mamu Jan]

Hi,

Is there anything like a Password InputBox. The JOptionPane.showInputDialogBox() provides a text field but I need a password field in the input dialog box !!??

thanx

Will JPasswordField work?

[Mamu Jan]

Let me rephrase my question. I need an input "dialoag box" containing a password field instead of a text field.

import javax.swing.*;
class Testing
{
  public Testing()
  {
    JPasswordField pwd = new JPasswordField(10);
    int action = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, pwd,"Enter Password",JOptionPane.OK_CANCEL_OPTION);
    if(action < 0)JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Cancel, X or escape key selected");
    else JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"Your password is "+new String(pwd.getPassword()));
    System.exit(0);
  }
  public static void main(String args[]){new Testing();}
}

You can use the same technique for any other type of component, such as JLists, JTrees, JCheckBoxes, you name it.
