How to deselect Jlist item on some event in java

Question

could any one suggest me any method or any other way in java that i could deselect my jlist item when some event occurs? i tried this but this does not seem to work

myJList.setSelectedIndex(-1);
myJList.ensureIndexIsVisible(-1);

trying random api rarely is a good solution strategy (why would you thing that ensureIndexIsVisible has anything to do with selection?) - instead read the api doc and/or a good basic tutorial, f.i. the online swing tutorial linked to in the swing tag description — kleopatra, Mar 07 '12 at 10:15

Try myJList.clearSelection(); It clears the selection(s) on your JList object. If multiple list items selected together, they can also be deselected via this method.
