SwingUtilities.invokeLater()

Question

In my method doWork() I call

SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
button.setBackgroundColor(Color.red);
}
});

then I call

SwingUtilities.invokeLater(new Runnable(){
public void run() {
button.setBackgroundColor(Color.blue);
}
});

Question whether will be button is red then blue, or blue then red?

Answer 1

invokeLater() adds its parameter to the Swing event queue. so they will be executed in the order they were added, i.e. first red then blue.
