how can have a JTextArea like in netbeans (see the pic)

   infoArea.setFont(police);
   infoArea.setForeground(Color.YELLOW);
   infoArea.setBackground(Color.BLACK);

   JScrollPane scroll = new JScrollPane(infoArea);
   scroll.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_NEVER);
   scroll.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEmptyBorder(5, 0, 10, 0));
   scroll.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(sousFrame.getWidth(),90));
   scroll.setFont( new Font("Arial", Font.BOLD, 13));
   scroll.setBorder(BorderFactory.createTitledBorder("Output"));

I'm not sure what NetBeans uses, but we used flexdock at my last company to create dockable windows in a Java Swing application (assuming this is what you meant by "retractable").
