DefaultListModel in Java

What is DefaultListModel in Java? and What is its purpose? I tried to google it but didn't get any proper explanation for it!

Solution

  • DefaultListModel is a implementation of the ListModel that extends from AbstractListModel.

    Internally, it is backed by List implementation.

    It's intention is to provide a simple implementation of the ListModel that you can use for modelling simple data models where having to extend from the AbstractListModel or implement the ListModel interface would be overkill for accomplishing the same task
