Loading animated GIF in JLabel weirdness

Question

I\'m trying to load an animated GIF in a JLabel.

While this works:

URL urlsd;
try {
    urlsd = new URL(\"http://pscode.org/media/starzoom-thumb.gif\         


        

Answer 1

So there is also a simpler way of doing it. The following line is how I did it.

this.setContentPane(new JLabel(new ImageIcon("Path To Gif File")));
