FocusEvent doesn't get the last value of JFormattedTextField, How I can get it?
I have two JFormattedTextField objects on my JFrame object. I want a basic Math (addition) by the values of these JFormattedTextField objects. I want it happen when focus lost either the first or the second textfield. But when " focusLost() ", event doesn't get the last value, it gets the previous value.
For example; tf1 has 0 and tf2 has 0 at first. I write 2 to tf1 , and when focusLost() , result ( tf1+tf2 ) become still 0. when I change any of them, the result becomes 2 (the previous value)
How do I get the last values on focusLost?
Here is my code:
JFormattedTextField tf1,tf2;
NumberFormat format=NumberFormat.getNumberInstance();
tf1=new JFormattedTextField(format);
tf1.addFocusListener(this);
tf2=new JFormattedTextField(format);
tf2.addFocusListener(this);
and focusLost() :
public void focusLost(FocusEvent e) {
if(tf1.getValue() == null) tf1.setValue(0);
if(tf2.getValue() == null) tf2.setValue(0);
//because if I dont set, it throws nullPointerException for tf.getValue()
BigDecimal no1 = new BigDecimal(tf1.getValue().toString());
BigDecimal no2 = new BigDecimal(tf2.getValue().toString());
System.out.println("total: " + (no1.add(no2)));
}
I think you should use a PropertyChangeListener , see How to Write a Property Change Listener.
There is an example using JFormattedTextField :
//...where initialization occurs:
double amount;
JFormattedTextField amountField;
...
amountField.addPropertyChangeListener("value",
new FormattedTextFieldListener());
...
class FormattedTextFieldListener implements PropertyChangeListener {
public void propertyChanged(PropertyChangeEvent e) {
Object source = e.getSource();
if (source == amountField) {
amount = ((Number)amountField.getValue()).doubleValue();
...
}
...//re-compute payment and update field...
}
}
is there some defalut Number value sets in your JFormattedTextField tf1,tf2;
for me works without NPE, for example

The default behavior of JFormattedTextField on focusLost is COMMIT_OR_REVERT , so one approach is to do the update after the focus listener has concluded. A continuation works nicely, as shown below.
