Showing the JComboBox selected item text only without the Icon?

I have a JComboBox that its renderer is a JLabel with an Icon for each item in the combo list :

class ComboBoxRenderer extends JLabel implements ListCellRenderer {
    public Component getListCellRendererComponent(
                JList list,
                Object comboItemObject,
                int comboItemIndex,
                boolean isSelected,
                boolean cellHasFocus) {
        String comboItemTitle = (String)comboItemObject;
        setText( comboItemTitle );
        setIcon( ne开发者_开发技巧w ImageIcon( getClass().getResource( "/images/myIcon.png" ) ) );

        return this;
    }
}

When i select an item from the comboBox i just want to show the selected item text in the comboBox, and not the item icon also. Is there a way i can do that ?

In the rendering code you can check the index. Something like:

if (index == -1)
{
    setText(...);
}
else
{
    setText(...);
    setIcon(...);
}

Also, you should not be reading the image in the rendering code since code is called frequently.

then you have to override isSelected, and extends JLabel is useless, because renderer by defalult returns JLabel as Component

To get the text in the combobox; a one liner code is all you need.

Create a variable, as I have called mine Combotext

then get the SelectedItem from the JComboBox.

 ComboText = jComboBox.getSelectedItem();
