    Default diplay a large text in JTextArea (>2GB)

    Default diplay a large text in JTextArea (>2GB)

    Hi All,

    I trying to display a text in JTextArea.
    For example :I want to read 23 lines. In my JTextArea I read only the first 10 lines. By moving the scrollbar I obtains the following 10 lines. And at the end 3 last ones. Nevertheless, I should be able to return behind.
    All the file must be present in JTextArea.

    Here 's my code. If somebody has an idea.
     private String string;
        	public MyDocument() {
        		try {
        			int offset = 0;
        			int x = 0;
        			for (int i = 0; i < 1024; i++) {
        				string = UUID.randomUUID().toString() + "\n";
        				if ((string != null) && (x < 10)) {
        					x++;
        				}
        				insertString(offset, string, null);
        				offset += string.length();
        			}
        		} catch (BadLocationException e) {
        			// TODO Auto-generated catch block
        			e.printStackTrace();
        		}
        	}
     
        	@Override
        	public String getText(int offset, int length) throws BadLocationException {
        		System.out.println(String.format("getText: Offset %d / Length: %d",
        				offset, length));
     
        		return super.getText(offset, length);
        	}
     
        	@Override
        	public void getText(int offset, int length, Segment seg)
        			throws BadLocationException {
        		System.out.println(String.format(
        				"getTextWithSegment: Offset %d / Length: %d", offset, length));
        		super.getText(offset, length, seg);
        	}
     
        	@Override
        	public int getLength() {
        		int length = super.getLength();
        		System.out.println("getLength: " + length);
        		return length;
        	}


    my main class:
        public GetTextClasse() {
        		JTextArea textArea = new JTextArea(new MyDocument());
        		setLayout(new GridLayout(1, 1));
     
        		add(new JScrollPane(textArea));
     
        	}
     
        	public static void main(String[] args) {
        		JFrame frame = new JFrame();
        		frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        		frame.setSize(800, 600);
        		frame.getContentPane().add(new GetTextClasse());
        		frame.setVisible(true);
     
        	}

    Thanks.

    The code you posted won't compile. Can you make a small, complete program that will compile and execute and demonstrate your problem.

    import javax.swing.text.PlainDocument;
    import javax.swing.text.Segment;

    int offset = 0;
    int x = 0;
    for (int i = 0; i < 1024; i++) {
    string = UUID.randomUUID().toString() + "\n";
    if ((string != null) && (x < 10)) {

    insertString(offset, string, null);
    offset += string.length();

    }
    } catch (BadLocationException e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    }
    }

    @Override

    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    System.out.println(String.format("getText: Offset %d / Length: %d",
    offset, length));
    return super.getText(offset, length);

    }

    @Override

    throws BadLocationException {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    System.out.println(String.format(

    int lenght = super.getLength();
    System.out.println("getLenght:" + lenght);
    return lenght;
    }
    }

    import javax.swing.JFrame;
    import javax.swing.JPanel;

    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOS E);
    frame.getContentPane().add(new TestGui());
    frame.setSize(400, 300);

    What is supposed to happen when I execute your test program?
    I get a scrollable area with lots of lines (1024) of data.

    I changed one line so I could see what lines were being displayed:

    string = "i=" + i + " " + UUID.randomUUID().toString() + "\n";
