Swing JLabel text change on the running application

I have a Swing window which co开发者_JAVA技巧ntains a button a text box and a JLabel named as flag. According to the input after I click the button, the label should change from flag to some value.

How to achieve this in the same window?

Use setText(str) method of JLabel to dynamically change text displayed. In actionPerform of button write this:

jLabel.setText("new Value");

A simple demo code will be:

    JFrame frame = new JFrame("Demo");
    frame.setLayout(new BorderLayout());
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    frame.setSize(250,100);

    final JLabel label = new JLabel("flag");
    JButton button = new JButton("Change flag");
    button.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
        @Override
        public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0) {
            label.setText("new value");
        }
    });

    frame.add(label, BorderLayout.NORTH);
    frame.add(button, BorderLayout.CENTER);
    frame.setVisible(true);
