Very Large Strings in JTextArea

Posted by Oliver Fuerniss on November 09, 2001 at 3:06 AM

i had also problems when viewing a String (24MB) in a JTextArea component. The method setText() always crashes the JVM. Then I tried the read() method from the JTextArea and it works, but it consumes a lot of Memory!
