JScrollPane with multiple JTextAreas

I am in need of an easy way to implement a JScrollPane where i can add JTextAreas. This should work like a comment system as you see it on youtube and here on Stackoverflow.

it should be in java code and if theres and other easy way I would like to know about it.

List<Comment> comments = businessLogicRepair.getComments(oid, "Internal");

        for (Comment comment : comments) {
            jInternalCommentScrollPane.add(new JTextArea(comment.getText()));

        }

My comment objects contain:

public Comment(String id, String type, String text, String author, String postDate, String repairId) {
    super(id);
    this.type = type;
    this.text = text;
    this.author = author;
    this.postDate = postDate;
    this.repairId = repairId;
}

I save the comments in a database and i can get em up easily. The problem is the showing part.

Thanks for the help

Solution

  • you have to accept that is possible to put only one JComponent to the JScrollPane, in your case only one JTextArea
