A password dialogue input function

Has a bit of help from Sam Barnum on StackOverflow with this but have a function which either gives you three chances to enter the correct password, or returns the password you enter into the box.
Just a bit of practice for me with SwingBuilder but might be a useful starting point for others.

Some of this has been enabled by the latest Groovy 1.8.4 version in the current Scriptmaster

// PasswordSwing ( title ; message ; type ; password ; returnPass )
// 12_02_21 JR
// v1.0
// type -1 plain, 0 error, 1 information, 2 warning, 3 question
// if returnPass then displays a dialogbox with a password field and returns the passsword on OK
// and uses title and password parameters and returns entered text
// else gives three attempts to enter a password which matches password parameter
// returns true if match if not or dialog cancelled returns false


import javax.swing.JComponent
import groovy.swing.SwingBuilder

type = type.toInteger()
i = 0
left = ''
swing = new SwingBuilder()

if(returnPass){
swing.edt{
  passwordField = passwordField()
  JComponent[] components = [label(message), passwordField]
  result = optionPane().showConfirmDialog(null, components, title, 2, type)
}
return passwordField.getPassword().toString()
} else {
swing.edt{
  passwordField = passwordField()
  while(i < 3){
   JComponent[] components = [label('Password'+left), passwordField]
   result = optionPane().showConfirmDialog(null, components, title, 2, -1)
   if (passwordField.getPassword().toString() == password || result == -1 || result == 2){
    i=3
   } else if (passwordField.getPassword().toString() != password && i==2) {
    result = optionPane().showMessageDialog(null, '<html><h1><font color="red">WRONG PASSWORD</font></h1><h3>Script halted</html>', 'ERROR', 2)
    i=3
   } else {
    result = -1
    i++
    message = i == 2 ? ' try':' tries'
    left = ' - ' + (3-i) + "${message}" + ' left'
    passwordField = passwordField()
   } //end if
  } //end while
} //end swing
return result == 0 ? true:false
}
