How can I output only a certain number of digits after a decimal place in a JTextComponent?

Question

I am using both JLabels and JTextFields, and need to be able to truncate my doubles to two decimal places when they are displayed by the application.

How can I perform this truncation, preferably without switching to JFormattedTextFields?

Prefer the Swing JFormattedTextField instead; see the Java Tutorial.
