Another question is that my GUI will be changed based on the different item selection in combobox, so if I select the items for the first time it will be okay, but if I change the selected items to another one the change won't be applied, so in this case, I should create an item listener? (ps. I implement the addActionListener by the time)
 
Thanks in advance

This is all purely Swing problem. It seems, there's a problem with the java.awt.event.ActionListener you have registered on your combobox. Please follow Swing docs on how to use combo box correctly https://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/components/combobox.html
