How to add list of checkboxes [combo boxes] to JScrollPane in Java Netbeans Swing application

I have a list of names and associated values to create checkboxes like

["SAMABULA","CARPETS INTERNATIONAL","HRM/TRAINING"]
["091","094","003"]

How to create checkboxes with these values add these checkboxes to JScrollPane in Netbeans IDE.

This is a Swing application. I created a window from palette and added jscrollpane to that window. But I don't know how to add list of checkboxes to that scrollpane.

@ Srikanth Dyapa

there are two areas

you have already JList that's contains JCheckBox(es)

then you just declare

JScrollPane myScrollPane = new JScrollPane(myList);

or you have to put your JCheckBox to JList or JPanel but for JPanel with correct LayoutManager for example GridLaoyut

thenarter add your JList or JPanel to the JScrollPane as is above mentioned

maybe ButtonGroup Component can help you with that

In Netbeans you just drag and drop the Check Boxes where you need them. In an Action Listener you use jCheckBox1.isSelected() in order to check if the user has checked the box or not.

Not sure how to add them in NetBeans as i use Eclipse, but in code would be something like:

JCheckBox chk = new JCheckBox("[LABEL STRING]");
// add event listeners to chk
myScrollPane.add(chk);

see here for more detail and examples: http://download.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/scrollpane.html
