I forgot to add that this is for setting the bounds width within a Java application (painted text, not a JLabel/Label component). Not exactly sure what circumstance you are operating under.

I use the following as a utility class:



import java.awt.Component;
import java.awt.Font;
import java.awt.FontMetrics;

public final class TextWidthChecker extends Component
{
   private Font f = null;

   public TextWidthChecker(String fnt, int size)
   {
     f = new Font(fnt, Font.PLAIN, size);
   }

   public int getTextWidth(String s)
   {
     int width = -1;

     FontMetrics fm = getFontMetrics(f);
     width = fm.stringWidth(s);

     return width;
   }
}

How do we determine the length of string with no Frame window, no Applet? (we know the font and size)
