I want to use GroupLayout to get a usernameLabel/Field and passwordLabel/Field display, like so:
Username: usernameField
Password: passwordField
The code I am using is as follows:
layout.setHorizontalGroup(
layout.createSequentialGroup()
.addGroup(layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.BASELINE)
.addComponent(usernameLabel)
.addComponent(usernameField)
)
.addGroup(layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.BASELINE)
.addComponent(passwordLabel)
.addComponent(passwordField)
)
);
layout.setVerticalGroup(
layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.Alignment.BASELINE)
.addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
.addComponent(usernameLabel)
.addComponent(usernameField)
)
.addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
.addComponent(passwordLabel)
.addComponent(passwordLabel)
)
);
This compiles but gives me the following errors:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalStateException: javax.swing.JPasswordField[,0,0,0x0,invalid,layout=javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTextUI$UpdateHandler,alignmentX=0.0,alignmentY=0.0,border=com.apple.laf.AquaTextFieldBorder@5910e440,flags=288,maximumSize=,minimumSize=,preferredSize=,caretColor=javax.swing.plaf.ColorUIResource[r=0,g=0,b=0],disabledTextColor=javax.swing.plaf.ColorUIResource[r=128,g=128,b=128],editable=true,margin=javax.swing.plaf.InsetsUIResource[top=0,left=0,bottom=0,right=0],selectedTextColor=com.apple.laf.AquaImageFactory$SystemColorProxy[r=0,g=0,b=0],selectionColor=com.apple.laf.AquaImageFactory$SystemColorProxy[r=164,g=205,b=255],columns=20,columnWidth=0,command=,horizontalAlignment=LEADING,echoChar=●] is not attached to a vertical group

Why am I getting this error, and how do I fix it?
Resource 1: I compared my logic ( i.e. the grid logic I used to decide which group should be parallel / sequential ) to the answer in this and it seemed to be right.
Resource 2
Take a look at this:
.addGroup(layout.createSequentialGroup()
.addComponent(passwordLabel)
.addComponent(passwordLabel)
)
That looks wrong. Why add the label twice?
And if one of those is supposed to be passwordField, that may explain why the exception says that there is a PasswordText object that is not attached to a vertical group.
