Creating a JDesktopPane Container
A desktop is a container that can only hold internal frames
(JInternalFrame objects). This example creates a desktop with
an internal frame.
// Create an internal frame
boolean resizable = true;
boolean closeable = true;
boolean maximizable = true;
boolean iconifiable = true;
String title = "Frame Title";
JInternalFrame iframe = new JInternalFrame(title, resizable, closeable, maximizable, iconifiable);
// Set an initial size
int width = 200;
int height = 50;
iframe.setSize(width, height);
// By default, internal frames are not visible; make it visible
iframe.setVisible(true);
// Add components to internal frame...
iframe.getContentPane().add(new JTextArea());
// Add internal frame to desktop
JDesktopPane desktop = new JDesktopPane();
desktop.add(iframe);
// Display the desktop in a top-level frame
JFrame frame = new JFrame();
frame.getContentPane().add(desktop, BorderLayout.CENTER);
frame.setSize(300, 300);
frame.setVisible(true);
