Month View

MonthView is a composite of a YearMonthSpinner and a tabular calendar display of the selected month.  The table can be navigated with the arrow keys, and the month can be changed by the mouse scroll wheel. Optionally, a link for setting the value to the current date can be displayed.  Clicking on a displayed date sets it as the selected value.

The no-arg constructor creates a MonthView set to the current date, with no upper or lower bounds, and without a link for the current date.  Other constructors allow setting these values.  Here’s a MonthView set to 7 April 2015 that prevents selection of any date after 20 April 2015:

This code created that MonthView, and the screenshot was captured on 3 April 2015.

new MonthView(LocalDate.of(2015, Month.APRIL, 7),
      null,
      LocalDate.of(2015, Month.APRIL, 20),
      true);


Please note that you will need JDK8 to compile and use this class.  You will also need YearMonthSpinner and related classes, published earlier.
