get the text from jTextField using jTextField1KeyTyped event

I have a jTextField, and when I want to type something in it, I want it to be displayed.

I used the jTextField1KeyTyped event.

but the problem is when I press some text the console shows me the text from the jTextField minus the last char.

for example if I typed "abcde", it will show me only "abcd".

how can I resolve this issue.

EDIT :

this is my project :
