Method Detail

getEchoChar

char getEchoChar()

Returns the character to be used for echoing. The default is '*'.

Returns:

the echo character, 0 if unset

setEchoChar

void setEchoChar(char pChar)

Sets the echo character for this JPasswordField. Note that this is largely a suggestion, since the view that gets installed can use whatever graphic techniques it desires to represent the field. Setting a value of 0 indicates that you wish to see the text as it is typed, similar to the behavior of a standard JTextField.

Parameters:

pChar - the echo character to display
