Greetings everyone! I hope someone can help me with this doubt! 
I have a jTabbedPane with one tab and several components in it (example: one label and one button). I have a button outside of the jTabbedPane which makes a new tab appear in the jTabbedPane (additional to the existing one)
Is there a way to make the new tab to contain a label and a button like the previous tab? I mean to keep adding tabs to the jTabbedPane and make all this tabs to contain a label and a button?
Thanks!

You can add any child only once to any parent. However, you can create multiple instances of the child component and add them.
In pseudo code
1) Subclass JPanel
2) Add whatever components required to this panel
3) While creating a new tab, create and use a new instance of this subclassed panel.
