Package Summary  Overview Summary

class:DesktopManager [NONE]

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    DefaultDesktopManager

    public interface DesktopManager
    
    DesktopManager objects are owned by a JDesktopPane object. They are responsible for implementing L&F specific behaviors for the JDesktopPane. JInternalFrame implementations should delegate specific behaviors to the DesktopManager. For instance, if a JInternalFrame was asked to iconify, it should try:
        getDesktopPane().getDesktopManager().iconifyFrame(frame);
     
    This delegation allows each L&F to provide custom behaviors for desktop-specific actions. (For example, how and where the internal frame's icon would appear.)

    This class provides a policy for the various JInternalFrame methods, it is not meant to be called directly rather the various JInternalFrame methods will call into the DesktopManager.

method:openFrame(javax.swing.JInternalFrame) [NONE]

  • openFrame

    void openFrame​(JInternalFrame f)
    If possible, display this frame in an appropriate location. Normally, this is not called, as the creator of the JInternalFrame will add the frame to the appropriate parent.
    Parameters:
    f - the JInternalFrame to be displayed

method:closeFrame(javax.swing.JInternalFrame) [NONE]

  • closeFrame

    void closeFrame​(JInternalFrame f)
    Generally, this call should remove the frame from its parent.
    Parameters:
    f - the JInternalFrame to be removed

method:maximizeFrame(javax.swing.JInternalFrame) [NONE]

  • maximizeFrame

    void maximizeFrame​(JInternalFrame f)
    Generally, the frame should be resized to match its parents bounds.
    Parameters:
    f - the JInternalFrame to be resized

method:minimizeFrame(javax.swing.JInternalFrame) [NONE]

  • minimizeFrame

    void minimizeFrame​(JInternalFrame f)
    Generally, this indicates that the frame should be restored to its size and position prior to a maximizeFrame() call.
    Parameters:
    f - the JInternalFrame to be restored

method:iconifyFrame(javax.swing.JInternalFrame) [NONE]

  • iconifyFrame

    void iconifyFrame​(JInternalFrame f)
    Generally, remove this frame from its parent and add an iconic representation.
    Parameters:
    f - the JInternalFrame to be iconified

method:deiconifyFrame(javax.swing.JInternalFrame) [NONE]

  • deiconifyFrame

    void deiconifyFrame​(JInternalFrame f)
    Generally, remove any iconic representation that is present and restore the frame to it's original size and location.
    Parameters:
    f - the JInternalFrame to be de-iconified

method:activateFrame(javax.swing.JInternalFrame) [NONE]

  • activateFrame

    void activateFrame​(JInternalFrame f)
    Generally, indicate that this frame has focus. This is usually called after the JInternalFrame's IS_SELECTED_PROPERTY has been set to true.
    Parameters:
    f - the JInternalFrame to be activated

method:deactivateFrame(javax.swing.JInternalFrame) [NONE]

  • deactivateFrame

    void deactivateFrame​(JInternalFrame f)
    Generally, indicate that this frame has lost focus. This is usually called after the JInternalFrame's IS_SELECTED_PROPERTY has been set to false.
    Parameters:
    f - the JInternalFrame to be deactivated

method:beginDraggingFrame(javax.swing.JComponent) [NONE]

  • beginDraggingFrame

    void beginDraggingFrame​(JComponent f)
    This method is normally called when the user has indicated that they will begin dragging a component around. This method should be called prior to any dragFrame() calls to allow the DesktopManager to prepare any necessary state. Normally f will be a JInternalFrame.
    Parameters:
    f - the JComponent being dragged

method:dragFrame(javax.swing.JComponent,int,int) [NONE]

  • dragFrame

    void dragFrame​(JComponent f,
                   int newX,
                   int newY)
    The user has moved the frame. Calls to this method will be preceded by calls to beginDraggingFrame(). Normally f will be a JInternalFrame.
    Parameters:
    f - the JComponent being dragged
    newX - the new x-coordinate
    newY - the new y-coordinate

method:endDraggingFrame(javax.swing.JComponent) [NONE]

  • endDraggingFrame

    void endDraggingFrame​(JComponent f)
    This method signals the end of the dragging session. Any state maintained by the DesktopManager can be removed here. Normally f will be a JInternalFrame.
    Parameters:
    f - the JComponent being dragged

method:beginResizingFrame(javax.swing.JComponent,int) [NONE]

  • beginResizingFrame

    void beginResizingFrame​(JComponent f,
                            int direction)
    This method is normally called when the user has indicated that they will begin resizing the frame. This method should be called prior to any resizeFrame() calls to allow the DesktopManager to prepare any necessary state. Normally f will be a JInternalFrame.
    Parameters:
    f - the JComponent being resized
    direction - the direction

method:resizeFrame(javax.swing.JComponent,int,int,int,int) [NONE]

  • resizeFrame

    void resizeFrame​(JComponent f,
                     int newX,
                     int newY,
                     int newWidth,
                     int newHeight)
    The user has resized the component. Calls to this method will be preceded by calls to beginResizingFrame(). Normally f will be a JInternalFrame.
    Parameters:
    f - the JComponent being resized
    newX - the new x-coordinate
    newY - the new y-coordinate
    newWidth - the new width
    newHeight - the new height

method:endResizingFrame(javax.swing.JComponent) [NONE]

  • endResizingFrame

    void endResizingFrame​(JComponent f)
    This method signals the end of the resize session. Any state maintained by the DesktopManager can be removed here. Normally f will be a JInternalFrame.
    Parameters:
    f - the JComponent being resized

method:setBoundsForFrame(javax.swing.JComponent,int,int,int,int) [NONE]

  • setBoundsForFrame

    void setBoundsForFrame​(JComponent f,
                           int newX,
                           int newY,
                           int newWidth,
                           int newHeight)
    This is a primitive reshape method.
    Parameters:
    f - the JComponent being moved or resized
    newX - the new x-coordinate
    newY - the new y-coordinate
