How to Set Focus on JTextField?

if is there only one Top-Level Container then last lines in GUI constructor would be for example

.
.
.
myFrame.setVisible(true);
EventQueue.invokeLater(new Runnable() {

   @Override
     public void run() {
         myComponent.grabFocus();
         myComponent.requestFocus();//or inWindow
     }
});

If you want your JTextField to be focused when your GUI shows up, you can use this:

in = new JTextField(40);
f.addWindowListener( new WindowAdapter() {
    public void windowOpened( WindowEvent e ){
        in.requestFocus();
    }
}); 

Where f would be your JFrame and in is your JTextField.


public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent arg0)
{
    if (arg0.getSource()==clearButton)
    {
        enterText.setText(null);
        enterText.grabFocus();  //Places flashing cursor on text box        
    }       
}
