I am trying to match two JPassWordFields in KeyPress event, when I type the password in the first JPassWordField, it return every letter's value immediately (I printed the char[] output to make sure) but when I type the same password or any password this happens :
at the 1st key stroke, it returns empty char array (e.g if I pressed "e" it returns [])
at the 2nd key stroke, it returns the value of the letter that was pressed at the 1st key stroke (e.g if I pressed "y" it returns "e" the previous letter and the output is [e])
at the 3rd key stroke, it returns the value of the letter that was pressed at the 2nd key stroke (e.g if I pressed "s" it returns "y" the previous letter and the output is [e,y])
and so on ....
so suppose I entered "eysa" as password in the first JPassWordField, I must enter "eysaa" in the second JPassWordField to have a matched char[] output of both
and if I backspace the second password to "eysa" the match status still true -_-
plz help, my head is spinning from lookingn for a sulotion here the keypress event I am using :
private void pfRCodeKeyTyped(java.awt.event.KeyEvent evt) {
mat = pfCode.getPassword();
tmp = pfRCode.getPassword();
if (!(Arrays.equals(mat,null) || Arrays.equals(tmp,null))) {
if (!Arrays.equals(tmp, mat)) {
jLWRC.setForeground(Color.red);
jLWRC.setText("No Match");
} else {
jLWRC.setForeground(Color.green);
jLWRC.setText("Match, password accepted");
}
} else {
jLWRC.setText("password field Empty");
}
}
