Hi, let's say i have a jframe which has 2 JTextFields and JButton to process smth when it is pressed. Processing needs apropriate values from those two text fields. When the button is pressed i want to check if user filled both fields and if not so, warn him. However i can not find out what is returned by JTextField's method getText() when text field is empty. That is not null and not empty String. Any help?

Did you try to assign a String value using getText()

String someThing = "texfieldName".getText()

// which should allow you to

if (something.length() == 0){

    throw noInputException();

}"

If im correct, you are trying to find out if the textField is empty?

if so use this

if(txtField.getText().trim().equals("")){

        //code here

 }
