How to make a JFrame Modal in Swing java.

Question

Hello, I have created one GUI in which I have used a JFrame. How should I make it Modal?

Answer 1

Your best bet is to use a JDialog instead of a JFrame if you want to make the window modal. Check out the Modality API for details.

Answer 2

As far as I know, JFrame cannot do Modal mode. Use JDialog instead and call setModalityType(Dialog.ModalityType type) to set it to be model (or not a modal).

Answer 3

Althought if possible, use a JDialog, as it can be modal
