making a modal JInternalFrame

java, jinternalframe, modal-dialog, swing

Solution

From my experience, I have never managed to make `JInternalFrame` modal and don't think that is possible out of the box.

See this great article on an extension to `JInternalFrame` to make them modal (thanks to Steve Webb).

Problem

I need to get lots of data (file select , text, date ,...) from user in a MDI JFrame. I need the input form that is a `JInternalFrame` be modal. How Can I make a `JInternalFrame` modal?
