replaceSelection() in TextPane

[prathana balaji]

public class ListenerThread extends Thread{
private Socket client;
public static String recdData = new String();

public ListenerThread_2(Socket client){
this.client = client;
new Thread().start();
}


public void run(){
String line;
String recdData=" ";
BufferedReader in = null;
PrintWriter out = null;
JOptionPane optionPane = new JOptionPane();

while(true){
try{

byte[] buf = new byte[10000];
HMIClient.init.GlobalFile.socket.getInputStream().read(buf);
recdData = new String(buf);

if(recdData.equals(" ")){
System.out.println("Message not Received");
}

else {

change_color(recdData.trim());

}


}catch(Exception ioe){

optionPane.showMessageDialog(new JFrame(),"Application Server is not started");
System.exit(0);
}
}
}

public static void append_textPane(Color c, String s) {
StyleContext stycxt = StyleContext.getDefaultStyleContext();
AttributeSet attrset = stycxt.addAttribute(SimpleAttributeSet.EMPTY, StyleConstants.Foreground, c);
logTextPane.setCaretPosition(logTextPane.getDocument().getLength());
logTextPane.setCharacterAttributes(attrset, false);
logTextPane.replaceSelection(s);
}
public static void change_color(String log){
String logs=log;
if(logs.contains("TXT"))
{
append_textPane(Color.GREEN,logs);
}
else {
append_textPane(Color.ORANGE,logs);
}
}
}

In this logTextPane is a JTextPaneComponent where the text is to be printed in different colors,replaceSelection is not working in this context...But I treied replaceSelection() in simple JTextPane Components in the JFrame it is working perfetly Fine,but replaceSelection() is not working here.The OUTPUT of the code....Nothing is printed in the JTextPane

I have tried with setText() also...but doing that the JTEXTPANE is not getting appened but it is overwritten

Please someone help me.

The code in append_textPane() looks good to me, so I wonder if you might be having threading issues. Does it work any better if you replace

change_color(recdData.trim());

with

final String s = recdData.trim();
SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable() {
public void run() {
change_color(s);
}
});
