In my last
blog I explained how to customize the visual feedback
provided by JPasswordField. Unfortunately the first option I detailed,
specifying a character that takes no space, had a bug in it. This blog
discusses the bug and how to fix it. If you want to
cut to the chase and run the demo it can be found here.
Specifying you want JPasswordField to render a character with no space
is as easy...
We've been gathering input from customers on various features they
would like to see us implement. At such a meeting one customer
requested a variation of JPasswordField. I figured it
would be interesting to blog on how you could modify JPasswordField to
vary the level of feedback it gives you. I'll cover various pieces of
Swing's text architecture in implementing one variation, as well as a
demo...
