java jtextarea 监听文本,Java JTextArea中选择文本触发哪个事件？

I want to monitor the selection of text into the a JTextArea. I don't know what event a selection of text triggers.

I just want to enable some of the menu items as soon as some text is selected out of the JTextArea like copy and cut options into the menu. What should I monitor for that?

I don't know about any "selection listeners" for text components (although they might be useful), but you could use a CaretListener to monitor changes to the caret position and check the selection state...

public class TestSelectionMonitor {

public static void main(String[] args) {

new TestSelectionMonitor();

}

public TestSelectionMonitor() {

EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

@Override

public void run() {

try {

UIManager.setLookAndFeel(UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName());

} catch (ClassNotFoundException | InstantiationException | IllegalAccessException | UnsupportedLookAndFeelException ex) {

}

final JTextArea ta = new JTextArea();

ta.addCaretListener(new CaretListener() {

@Override

public void caretUpdate(CaretEvent e) {

int length = ta.getSelectionEnd() - ta.getSelectionStart();

System.out.println(length);

}

});

JFrame frame = new JFrame("Testing");

frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());

frame.add(new JScrollPane(ta));

frame.pack();

frame.setLocationRelativeTo(null);

frame.setVisible(true);

}

});

}

}
