How to make an image a component for JScrollPane ?

[Jesse Crockett]

I'm trying to make an applet that uses screenshots of documents instead of loading the pdf or doc files. Is there a way to make an image a component? I'm never worked with images in Java, let alone applets. Here is the code I'm working with, if it helps..

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.event.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;
import javax.swing.event.*;
import javax.imageio.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Listenlight06 extends JApplet implements ActionListener {
public void init() {
getIntro();
}
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
System.out.println("action performed");
}
public void getIntro() {
JLabel label = new JLabel("listenlight 06 beta", SwingConstants.CENTER);
add(label, BorderLayout.NORTH);
Image image = null;
try {
// Read from a file
File file = new File("flower.jpg");
image = ImageIO.read(file);
/*
// Read from an input stream
InputStream is = new BufferedInputStream(
new FileInputStream("image.gif"));
image = ImageIO.read(is);
// Read from a URL
URL url = new URL("http://hostname.com/image.gif");
image = ImageIO.read(url);
*/
} catch (IOException e) {
}
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(image);
scrollPane.setVerticalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.VERTICAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED);
scrollPane.setHorizontalScrollBarPolicy(JScrollPane.HORIZONTAL_SCROLLBAR_AS_NEEDED);
add(scrollPane, BorderLayout.CENTER);
}
}

Listenlight06.java:45: cannot find symbol
symbol : constructor JScrollPane(java.awt.Image)
location: class javax.swing.JScrollPane
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(image);

You can put an image inside a JButton.

There seems to be nothing applet-specific in this problem, so I'm moving the thread to the AWT/Swing/GUI forum.

You'll probably want to do something like -

ImageIcon icon = new ImageIcon(image);
JLabel label = new JLabel(icon);
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane(label);
