Place icon inside jLabel on jTextField

Question

How to change the date insertion mode in my jTextField?

Here’s what I got:

I want to insert this icon that is in jLabel inside my jTextField. Is this possible?

Upgrade:

    import java.awt.*;  
import javax.swing.*;  
class Testing extends JFrame  
{  
  public Testing()  
  {  
    setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);  
    JPanel p = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());  
    JTextField tf = new JTextField(5);  
    JLabel label = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("LogoIcon.png"));  
    label.setOpaque(true);  
    label.setBackground(tf.getBackground());  
    label.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(label.getPreferredSize().width,tf.getPreferredSize().height));  
    p.setBorder(tf.getBorder());  
    tf.setBorder(null);  
    p.add(label,BorderLayout.WEST);  
    p.add(tf,BorderLayout.CENTER);  
    JPanel p1 = new JPanel();  
    p1.add(p);  
    getContentPane().add(p1);  
    pack();  
    setLocationRelativeTo(null);  
  }  
  public static void main(String[] args){new Testing().setVisible(true);}  
}  

This code is functional and I can put the icon I want in the textfield. Now I already have my jformattedTextField and my label with the icon and tried the following:

jLabel31.setOpaque(true);  
jLabel31.setBackground(teste.getBackground());  
jLabel31.setPreferredSize(new Dimension(jLabel31.getPreferredSize().width,teste.getPreferredSize().height));  

this way the image does not appear in my textField 'test'. Any suggestions?

Update1:

public ConfEmpresa() throws SQLException {
...
        Testing1 teste = new Testing1();
        teste.setVisible(true);


    }

class Testing1 extends JFrame implements MouseListener {

    public Testing1() {


        JPanel jp = new JPanel();
        //Border border = BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.GRAY, 1);
        //jp.setBorder(border);
        //jp.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
        jp.addMouseListener(this);

        //nomeC = new JTextField(10);
        nomeC.setEditable(false);
        nomeC.setText("sdfasdf");
        //nomeC.setBorder(null);
        //tf.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
        nomeC.addMouseListener(this);

        JLabel lb = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("LogoIcon.png"));
        lb.addMouseListener(this);

        //jp.add(nomeC);
        jp.add(lb);
        jPanel3.add(jp);
        pack();
    }

The mouseclicked part is already as I want. Continue to open two windows and the icon does not appear in the field.

Your image does not appear because you set label.setOpaque(true); and that’s covering her up!

Suggestion:

I already implemented the click event for you, now just manipulate it to edit the JTextField according to the way it will use to capture the user’s date.

import java.awt.Color;
import java.awt.event.MouseEvent;
import java.awt.event.MouseListener;
import javax.swing.BorderFactory;
import javax.swing.ImageIcon;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
import javax.swing.JLabel;
import javax.swing.JPanel;
import javax.swing.JTextField;
import javax.swing.border.Border;

class Testing extends JFrame implements MouseListener {

    JTextField tf;

    public Testing() {
        super("Exemplo");
        setDefaultCloseOperation(EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
        setSize(200, 75);

        JPanel jp = new JPanel();
        Border border = BorderFactory.createLineBorder(Color.GRAY, 1);
        jp.setBorder(border);
        jp.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
        jp.addMouseListener(this);

        tf = new JTextField(10);
        tf.setEditable(false);
        tf.setText("___/___/______");
        tf.setBorder(null);
        tf.setBackground(Color.WHITE);
        tf.addMouseListener(this);

        JLabel lb = new JLabel(new ImageIcon("/home/anderson/Downloads/icon-calendar.png"));
        lb.addMouseListener(this);

        jp.add(tf);
        jp.add(lb);
        add(jp);
        pack();
    }

    public void mouseClicked(MouseEvent e) {
        System.out.println("Manipule a data aqui!");
        tf.setText("13/11/2014");
    }

    public void mousePressed(MouseEvent e) {}
    public void mouseReleased(MouseEvent e) {}
    public void mouseEntered(MouseEvent e) {}
    public void mouseExited(MouseEvent e) {}
}

After the mouse event:

I hope I’ve helped! Any questions, I’m available.
