What is Jframe?
A frame, implemented as an instance of the JFrame
class, is a window that has decorations such as a
border, a title, and supports button components that
close or iconify the window. Applications with a GUI
usually include at least one frame

Coding of JFrame
import java.awt.FlowLayout;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
public class JTextAreaTest {
public static void main(String[] args) {
JFrame frame = new JFrame("JTextArea Test");
frame.setSize(280, 150);
frame.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
frame.setResizable(false);
frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
frame.setVisible(true);

Explanation of Previously Used
Methods
setSize(). Method allows you to set the size like Width & height of JFrame
setResizable(). One method for ensuring that a graphical interface looks the way you intend is
to prevent the user from re-sizing it, using this method of JFrame :
setLayout(). Method allows you to set the layout of the container, often a JPanel, to say
FlowLayout(), BorderLayout(), GridLayout(), null layout(), or
whatever layout desired. The layout manager helps lay out the components held
by this container
setDefaultCloseOperation() method is used to specify one of several options for the close
button. Use one of the following constants to specify your choice:
 JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE — Exit the application.
 JFrame.HIDE_ON_CLOSE — Hide the frame, but keep the application running.
 JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE — Dispose of the frame object, but keep the application running.
 JFrame.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE — Ignore the click.
If you forget to call setDefaultCloseOperation() you will get JFrame.HIDE_ON_CLOSE by default.
This can be frustrating, because it looks like you have "killed" the program, but it keeps on running,
and you see no frame.

What is JTextArea?
A JTextArea is a multi-line area that displays plain
text. It is intended to be a lightweight component that
provides source compatibility with the
java.awt.TextArea class where it can reasonably do
so.

38
Add “JTextArea” on Frame

39
Coding of JTextArea
JTextArea textArea1 = new JTextArea(text);
textArea1.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(100, 100));
textArea1.setLineWrap(true);
frame.add(textArea1);

match the width of the viewport.
int
getScrollableUnitIncrement(Rectangle visibleRect, int orientation, int direction)

increment that will completely expose one new row or column, depending on
the value of orientation.

43
Methods
Modifier & Type Method and Description
Int getTabSize()
Gets the number of characters used to expand tabs.
String getUIClassID()
Returns the class ID for the UI.
Boolean getWrapStyleWord()

Coding of JTextArea with
ScrollPane
JTextArea textArea2 = new JTextArea(text, 5, 10);
textArea2.setLineWrap(true);
JScrollPane scrollPane = new
JScrollPane(textArea2,JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS,
JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_ALWAYS);
frame.add(scrollPane);

Why JScrollPane used with
JTextArea?
A JTextArea object represents a multiline area for displaying
text. If Text is too large from JTextArea Boundaries(Width,
Height) then You can also put your JTextArea in a
JScrollPane to make it scrollable.
