How to display text coming from a dynamic List in JLabel

in console we can do that like this :

 for(int i = 0 ; i <list.size();i++){
    System.out.print("name :"+list.get(i).getName());
    System.out.print("  year :"+list.get(i).getYear());
    System.out.println();
 }

if we know the size we can creat many label and do that

label.setText("");

what is the best way to do that in swing if we don't know the size of our list ?

System.out.print("name :"+list.get(i).getName());
System.out.print("  year :"+list.get(i).getYear());
System.out.println();

For tabular information, use a JTable. See How to Use Tables for more details and code.

Swing Table

Another tips: for command line output, look to Formatting Numeric Print Output.

You can use HTML to format text in any Swing component that displays text.

StringBuilder b = new StringBuilder("<html>");
for(String s : list) {
    b.append(s);
    b.append("<br>");
}

label.setText(b.toString()); // multiline JLabel

label.setText(label.getText() + " " + s);Use For-Each Loop.

for example:

for (String s : listOfStringType){
    label.setText(label.getText() + " " + s);
}
