public class VisualStringList
extends javax.swing.JPanel

This class extends JPanel in order to provide a panel to show a list of string. Clicking the right button of the mouse a popUp menu with the allowed operations is showed. The method setEnabled permits to set the operation allowed. If enabled, three are the operation allowed: Add new item, Edit an existing item, Remove a selected item; otherwise only the view operation is allowed. Double clicking on a selected item permits the view/edit on it Example of using this class: JDialog d = new JDialog(); ... ArrayList a = new ArrayList(); a.add("element"); .... VisualStringList listGui = new VisualStringList(a.iterator); list.setEnabled(true); // to sets the popUpMenu to show the three choices Add Edit Remove list.setDimension(new Dimension(..,..)); d.getContentPane.().add(listGui); If the user needs to show more complex items, can extend this class and override the needed methods.
