Answer 1

The cleaner way is to use lambda expressions like this:

do(comboBox, () -> comboBox.setSelectedItem("Item Name"));

For the above to work, you need the following method defined somewhere:

public static void do(final JComboBox component, final Runnable f) {
    final ActionListener[] actionListeners = component.getActionListeners();
    for (final ActionListener listener : actionListeners)
        component.removeActionListener(listener);
    try {
        f.run();
    } finally {
        for (final ActionListener listener : actionListeners)
            component.addActionListener(listener);
    }
}
