If you have dynamic list content, you are supposed to use a
_model_. Look at DefaultListModel for a usable and simple
implementation.

The simplest is to get all the elements into an array, sort the array
using Arrays.sort(), then create a new model based on the array and
set it as the JList's model.

It's not hard in in Java, only different. :-)

If you want to do it closer to Delphi, you may want to look at
Microsoft's WFC, but then you'll restrict yourself to newer versions
of Microsoft's JVM for runtime.
