Calendar/Appointments Swing component -

Thread view:

Hi All,

In my Swing app I need to display a calendar of dates. Not uncommon
right?

I've been looking for third-party components (both free and commercial)
as building my own seems daft given that it's all been done before a
million times. However, most seem to be primarily "date pickers".

What I need is something that indicates "busy days" (days with an entry
booked on them) on the calendar display.  I want to be able to indicate
mulitple events happening on any day - probably with ToolTips in month
views.

Can anyone point me to any good ones? I see there are loads out there.
I'd happily take a good/pretty "date picker" and add to it if I can get
the source code.

I've been playing with "Java Calendar Component v3.1" but one feature I
do need is to be able to have multiple "months" displayed (sometimes
three months - sometimes twelve).  I could not get this to happen with
this component - but didn't look into it much.

I've looked at so many through Google that I don't know which to invest
my time - and potentially money - in.

Any wisdom welcome.

As ever - many thanks

We use java date picker (http://www.javadatepicker.com/). It is very
good and has all the things you mentioned above. It is cheap too. You
can try it.
