EditList is a Java List component which lets users interactively add, remove, replace, and reorder its items. 

Standard Java AWT Lists have a read-only user interface, and end users can only select and scroll the items.  EditList does everything a standard List does but also allows users to: 

  • reorder list items by dragging with the mouse
  • modify list items by using a pop-up edit dialog to:
    • delete existing items
    • change existing items
    • insert and append new items
In addition developers can: 
  • Disable the editing capability if only a "ReorderingList" is desired
  • Made the editing mode modal or nonmodal
  • Change the edit dialog title to provide a prompting line (disabled in free version)
  • Enter list items using a multiple line property sheet editor
  • Use EditList as either a JavaBean or a simple class
EditList is ideal for entering and updating lists of items, selecting subsets of lists, and indicating order, ranking, priorities, and sequences. EditList extends AWT List and retains all of its function and API.  The Free Version of EditList only disables the ability to change the edit dialog title and is licensed for evaluation, development, and non-commercial use.  Product and Source Code versions are also available.
