JLabel icon does not display with clojure and miglayout

Question

Still pretty green on clojure, java, layouts etc. On a miglayout I have this line to insert an icon on Jlabel:

(JLabel. "" "C:\\MyPriject\Pictures\\TCM00.jpg")

I am getting the following error:

#<CompilerException java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No matching ctor found for class javax.swing.JLabel (NO_SOURCE_FILE:901)>

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Answer 1

JLabel has no constructor that takes two String arguments.

If you want just an icon (and no text), there is a constructor that takes one Icon. The class ImageIcon (which implements Icon) has a constructor that takes a filename String. So this should work:

(JLabel. (ImageIcon. "C:\\MyPriject\Pictures\\TCM00.jpg"))

See the javadoc:
