how to add Image in JPanel

Question

I add a tabbedpane in my frame and call tab.add(" ",new Img()) that extends Img with JPanel ..

The question is: Could I add JScrollPane in that JPanel and drawImage as JPanel's background and also to do additional drawing on that image such as making route on background image(such as map) because I want to apply Prim's algorithm on those route...

And also if I wish to add additional panel on tabbedpane like above, how could I control those tab actions..

The sample code is like that...

If you have any idea on Prim's algorithm and graph algorithm please help me! Thanks!

please read How to add an image to a JPanel?

in small lines the image can be added on JPanel like this

public class ImagePanel extends JPanel{

    private BufferedImage image;

    public ImagePanel() {
       try {                
          image = ImageIO.read(new File("image name and path"));
       } catch (IOException ex) {
            // handle exception...
       }
    }

    @Override
    public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
        g.drawImage(image, 0, 0, null); 
                    // see javadoc for more info on the parameters
    }
}

In the example above the image is loaded in the constructor of the class and it is then drawn by the paintComponent(...) which is called by default after executing the constuctor
