#3 multiple instances display the last text

[Anonymous]

JEditTextArea jta1 = new JEditTextArea();
jta1.setText("xxxxxx");

JEdittextArea jta2 = new JEditTextArea();
jta2.setText("yyyyyy");

This causes even jta1 to display "yyyyyy"

Looks like there is a static reference in
JEditTextArea that I am not able to figure out

Please help

Try
jta2.setDocument(new SyntaxDocument());
just after creating jta2.
The default's for JEditText area are to share the same
document amongst all instances.

Yeah, that bummed me out for a while too, but setting a new
instance of a document seemed to do the trick (plus I
removed the word final from everywhere, but I think that was
not needed)
i.e.
setDocument(new org.syntax.jedit.SyntaxDocument());

I think this is a serious bug. Should be fixed soon!

To use multiple instances with differents settings, you must
use your own implementation of TextAreaDefaults, not
DEFAULT.

To avoid this issue, you have to assign a new TokenMarker to the second instance.

jta2.setTokenMarker(new syntax.tokenmarker.TSQLTokenMarker());

The instance of the TextAreaDefaults.document is shared between all JEditTextArea's - hence the document content is shared. The document must be newly instantiated for each instance of the editor.
