I'm looking for a decent hex viewer (read-only; I don't need an editor) GUI component that I can use within my Swing GUI. Is there anything out there? I suppose I could write my own, but am hoping to avoid doing this. (also it would be nice to be able to render certain bytes as colorized/bold to highlight particular bytes in question.)

edit: this is for displaying the contents of a ByteBuffer in memory.

Java Hex Editor Component. It's old but working fine

thanks, I'll look into it... but it's GPL and that's not permissible in my application.

well ... look at the code, get an idea on how it is designed, then write your own :P

Did you tried http://www.fifesoft.com/hexeditor/ (BSD) ?

A: 

If it's GPL (Java Hex Editor Component) and you are looking for a commercial solution, why not pay the author for a commercial licence?
