How to show this JComboBox?

[arun mahajan]

Hi,
I was wondering why this JComboBox is not showingup, though if i try to use Choice it works with the same code.
Can you help me?
regards,
arun

 
public void logo(String p,String f1,String name,String bname,ActionListener ae)
{
removeAll();
try
{
JComboBox jcbx=null;
jcbx = new JComboBox();
JLabel username = new JLabel("Welcome");
username.setBounds(10,5,70,20);
username.setForeground(new Color(3,9,117));
username.setBackground(new Color(255,255,255));
JLabel username1 = new JLabel();
username1.setBounds(70,5,200,20);
username1.setText("arun67");
username1.setForeground(new Color(0,102,255));

JLabel titlebg = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("images/titlebg.gif"));
titlebg.setBounds(100,40,200,20);
JLabel titleName = new JLabel();
titleName.setBounds(145,42,180,18);
titleName.setFont(new Font("arial",Font.BOLD,15));
titleName.setForeground(new Color(255,255,255));
titleName.setText(name);
jcbx.setBounds(10,75,100,30);
jcbx.setVisible(true);
JLabel img = null;
try
{
String path = p;
File f = new File(path);
FilenameFilter only = new FileCheck();
File[] s1 = f.listFiles();
System.out.println("s1: "+s1.length);
s=new File[s1.length];
int ctr=0;
for(int i=0;i<s1.length;i++)
{
boolean repl=only.accept(s1[i],f1);
if(repl)
{
System.out.println(s1[i].getName());
String xx = ""+s1[i].getName();
jcbx.addItem(xx.substring(0,(xx.length()-4)));
s[ctr]=s1[i];
ctr++;
xx="";
}
}
img =new JLabel(new ImageIcon((s[0].getPath())));
img.setBounds(140,75,100,30);
jcbx.addItemListener(this);
}
catch(Exception e)
{
System.out.println("Error in file reading: "+e);
}

go.setBounds(320,185,60,20);
go.setOpaque(false);
go.setBorder(null);
go.setActionCommand(bname);
add(username);
add(username1);
add(titleName);
add(titlebg);
add(jcbx);
add(img);
add(go);
}catch(Exception e)
{
System.out.println("error :"+e);
}
repaint();
}

Instead of calling repaint(), you need to call

getContentPane().validate();

repaint just paints the component, validate sets up all the component's children. Since you are adding new components, validate needs to be called instead of repaint.
