method:add(java.awt.Component) [NONE]

method:add(java.lang.String, java.awt.Component) [CHANGED]

  • add

    public Component add(String name,
                     Component comp)
    Adds the specified component to this container. This is a convenience method for addImpl(java.awt.Component, java.lang.Object, int) .

    This method is obsolete as of 1.1. Please use the method add(Component, Object) instead.

    This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy. If the container has already been displayed, the hierarchy must be validated thereafter in order to display the added component.

    Parameters:
    name - the name of the component to be added
    comp - the component to be added
    Returns:
    the component added
    Throws:
    NullPointerException - if comp is null
    See Also:
    add(Component, Object) , invalidate()

  • add

    public Component add(String name,
                     Component comp)
    Adds the specified component to this container. This is a convenience method for addImpl(java.awt.Component, java.lang.Object, int) .

    This method is obsolete as of 1.1. Please use the method add(Component, Object) instead.

    This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy. If the container has already been displayed, the hierarchy must be validated thereafter in order to display the added component.

    Parameters:
    name - the name of the component to be added
    comp - the component to be added
    Returns:
    the component added
    Throws:
    NullPointerException - if comp is null
    See Also:
    add(Component, Object) , invalidate()

method:add(java.awt.Component, int) [NONE]

method:setComponentZOrder(java.awt.Component, int) [NONE]

  • setComponentZOrder

    public void setComponentZOrder(Component comp,
                               int index)
    Moves the specified component to the specified z-order index in the container. The z-order determines the order that components are painted; the component with the highest z-order paints first and the component with the lowest z-order paints last. Where components overlap, the component with the lower z-order paints over the component with the higher z-order.

    If the component is a child of some other container, it is removed from that container before being added to this container. The important difference between this method and java.awt.Container.add(Component, int) is that this method doesn't call removeNotify on the component while removing it from its previous container unless necessary and when allowed by the underlying native windowing system. This way, if the component has the keyboard focus, it maintains the focus when moved to the new position.

    This property is guaranteed to apply only to lightweight non-Container components.

    This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy.

    Note: Not all platforms support changing the z-order of heavyweight components from one container into another without the call to removeNotify. There is no way to detect whether a platform supports this, so developers shouldn't make any assumptions.

    Parameters:
    comp - the component to be moved
    index - the position in the container's list to insert the component, where getComponentCount() appends to the end
    Throws:
    NullPointerException - if comp is null
    IllegalArgumentException - if comp is one of the container's parents
    IllegalArgumentException - if index is not in the range [0, getComponentCount()] for moving between containers, or not in the range [0, getComponentCount()-1] for moving inside a container
    IllegalArgumentException - if adding a container to itself
    IllegalArgumentException - if adding a Window to a container
    Since:
    1.5

    getComponentZOrder(java.awt.Component), invalidate()

method:getComponentZOrder(java.awt.Component) [NONE]

  • getComponentZOrder

    public int getComponentZOrder(Component comp)
    Returns the z-order index of the component inside the container. The higher a component is in the z-order hierarchy, the lower its index. The component with the lowest z-order index is painted last, above all other child components.
    Parameters:
    comp - the component being queried
    Returns:
    the z-order index of the component; otherwise returns -1 if the component is null or doesn't belong to the container

method:add(java.awt.Component, java.lang.Object, int) [NONE]

method:addImpl(java.awt.Component, java.lang.Object, int) [CHANGED]

  • addImpl

    protected void addImpl(Component comp,
                       Object constraints,
                       int index)
    Adds the specified component to this container at the specified index. This method also notifies the layout manager to add the component to this container's layout using the specified constraints object via the addLayoutComponent method.

    The constraints are defined by the particular layout manager being used. For example, the BorderLayout class defines five constraints: BorderLayout.NORTH, BorderLayout.SOUTH, BorderLayout.EAST, BorderLayout.WEST, and BorderLayout.CENTER.

    The GridBagLayout class requires a GridBagConstraints object. Failure to pass the correct type of constraints object results in an IllegalArgumentException.

    If the current layout manager implements LayoutManager2, then LayoutManager2.addLayoutComponent(Component,Object) is invoked on it. If the current layout manager does not implement LayoutManager2, and constraints is a String, then LayoutManager.addLayoutComponent(String,Component) is invoked on it.

    If the component is not an ancestor of this container and has a non-null parent, it is removed from its current parent before it is added to this container.

    This is the method to override if a program needs to track every add request to a container as all other add methods defer to this one. An overriding method should usually include a call to the superclass's version of the method:

    super.addImpl(comp, constraints, index)

    This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy. If the container has already been displayed, the hierarchy must be validated thereafter in order to display the added component.

    Parameters:
    comp - the component to be added
    constraints - an object expressing layout constraints for this component
    index - the position in the container's list at which to insert the component, where -1 means append to the end
    Throws:
    IllegalArgumentException - if index is invalid; if comp is a child of this container, the valid range is [-1, getComponentCount()-1] ; if component is not a child of this container, the valid range is [-1, getComponentCount()]
    IllegalArgumentException - if comp is an ancestor of this container
    IllegalArgumentException - if adding a window to a container
    NullPointerException - if comp is null

  • setLayout

    public void setLayout(LayoutManager mgr)
    Sets the layout manager for this container.

    This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy.

    Parameters:
    mgr - the specified layout manager
    See Also:
    doLayout(), getLayout(), invalidate()

method:doLayout() [CHANGED]

method:layout() [NONE]

  • layout

    @Deprecated
public void layout()
    Deprecated. As of JDK version 1.1, replaced by doLayout().
    Overrides:
    layout in class Component

method:isValidateRoot() [NONE]

  • isValidateRoot

    public boolean isValidateRoot()
    Indicates if this container is a validate root .

    Layout-related changes, such as bounds of the validate root descendants, do not affect the layout of the validate root parent. This peculiarity enables the invalidate() method to stop invalidating the component hierarchy when the method encounters a validate root. However, to preserve backward compatibility this new optimized behavior is enabled only when the java.awt.smartInvalidate system property value is set to true.

    If a component hierarchy contains validate roots and the new optimized invalidate() behavior is enabled, the validate() method must be invoked on the validate root of a previously invalidated component to restore the validity of the hierarchy later. Otherwise, calling the validate() method on the top-level container (such as a Frame object) should be used to restore the validity of the component hierarchy.

    The Window class and the Applet class are the validate roots in AWT. Swing introduces more validate roots.

    Returns:
    whether this container is a validate root
    Since:
    1.7
    See Also:
    invalidate(), Component.invalidate(), JComponent.isValidateRoot(), JComponent.revalidate()

method:invalidate() [NONE]

method:validate() [NONE]

  • validate

    public void validate()
    Validates this container and all of its subcomponents.

    Validating a container means laying out its subcomponents. Layout-related changes, such as setting the bounds of a component, or adding a component to the container, invalidate the container automatically. Note that the ancestors of the container may be invalidated also (see Component.invalidate() for details.) Therefore, to restore the validity of the hierarchy, the validate() method should be invoked on the top-most invalid container of the hierarchy.

    Validating the container may be a quite time-consuming operation. For performance reasons a developer may postpone the validation of the hierarchy till a set of layout-related operations completes, e.g. after adding all the children to the container.

    If this Container is not valid, this method invokes the validateTree method and marks this Container as valid. Otherwise, no action is performed.

    Overrides:
    validate in class Component
    See Also:
    add(java.awt.Component), invalidate(), isValidateRoot(), JComponent.revalidate(), validateTree()

method:validateTree() [NONE]

  • validateTree

    protected void validateTree()

    Returns:
    the vertical alignment of this component

method:paint(java.awt.Graphics) [NONE]

  • paint

    public void paint(Graphics g)
    Paints the container. This forwards the paint to any lightweight components that are children of this container. If this method is reimplemented, super.paint(g) should be called so that lightweight components are properly rendered. If a child component is entirely clipped by the current clipping setting in g, paint() will not be forwarded to that child.
    Overrides:

    Locates the visible child component that contains the specified position. The top-most child component is returned in the case where there is overlap in the components. If the containing child component is a Container, this method will continue searching for the deepest nested child component. Components which are not visible are ignored during the search.

    The findComponentAt method is different from getComponentAt in that getComponentAt only searches the Container's immediate children; if the containing component is a Container, findComponentAt will search that child to find a nested component.

    Parameters:
    x - the x coordinate
    y - the y coordinate
    Returns:
    null if the component does not contain the position. If there is no child component at the requested point and the point is within the bounds of the container the container itself is returned.

    public void setFocusTraversalKeys(int id,
                                  Set<? extends AWTKeyStroke> keystrokes)
    Sets the focus traversal keys for a given traversal operation for this Container.

    The default values for a Container's focus traversal keys are implementation-dependent. Sun recommends that all implementations for a particular native platform use the same default values. The recommendations for Windows and Unix are listed below. These recommendations are used in the Sun AWT implementations.
    IdentifierMeaningDefault
    KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYSNormal forward keyboard traversal TAB on KEY_PRESSED, CTRL-TAB on KEY_PRESSED
    KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYSNormal reverse keyboard traversal SHIFT-TAB on KEY_PRESSED, CTRL-SHIFT-TAB on KEY_PRESSED
    KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYSGo up one focus traversal cycle none
    KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYSGo down one focus traversal cycle none
    To disable a traversal key, use an empty Set; Collections.EMPTY_SET is recommended.

    Using the AWTKeyStroke API, client code can specify on which of two specific KeyEvents, KEY_PRESSED or KEY_RELEASED, the focus traversal operation will occur. Regardless of which KeyEvent is specified, however, all KeyEvents related to the focus traversal key, including the associated KEY_TYPED event, will be consumed, and will not be dispatched to any Container. It is a runtime error to specify a KEY_TYPED event as mapping to a focus traversal operation, or to map the same event to multiple default focus traversal operations.

    If a value of null is specified for the Set, this Container inherits the Set from its parent. If all ancestors of this Container have null specified for the Set, then the current KeyboardFocusManager's default Set is used.

    This method may throw a ClassCastException if any Object in keystrokes is not an AWTKeyStroke.

    Overrides:
    setFocusTraversalKeys in class Component
    Parameters:
    id - one of KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, or KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS
    keystrokes - the Set of AWTKeyStroke for the specified operation
    Throws:
    IllegalArgumentException - if id is not one of KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, or KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, or if keystrokes contains null, or if any keystroke represents a KEY_TYPED event, or if any keystroke already maps to another focus traversal operation for this Container

  • areFocusTraversalKeysSet

    public boolean areFocusTraversalKeysSet(int id)
    Returns whether the Set of focus traversal keys for the given focus traversal operation has been explicitly defined for this Container. If this method returns false, this Container is inheriting the Set from an ancestor, or from the current KeyboardFocusManager.
    Overrides:
    areFocusTraversalKeysSet in class Component
    Parameters:
    id - one of KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, or KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS
    Returns:
    true if the Set of focus traversal keys for the given focus traversal operation has been explicitly defined for this Component; false otherwise.
    Throws:
    IllegalArgumentException - if id is not one of KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS, or KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS

method:isFocusCycleRoot(java.awt.Container) [NONE]

  • isFocusCycleRoot

    public boolean isFocusCycleRoot(Container container)
    Returns whether the specified Container is the focus cycle root of this Container's focus traversal cycle. Each focus traversal cycle has only a single focus cycle root and each Container which is not a focus cycle root belongs to only a single focus traversal cycle. Containers which are focus cycle roots belong to two cycles: one rooted at the Container itself, and one rooted at the Container's nearest focus-cycle-root ancestor. This method will return true for both such Containers in this case.
    Overrides:
    isFocusCycleRoot in class Component
    Parameters:
    container - the Container to be tested
    Returns:
    true if the specified Container is a focus-cycle- root of this Container; false otherwise

    1.4

    isFocusCycleRoot()

method:setFocusTraversalPolicy(java.awt.FocusTraversalPolicy) [NONE]

  • setFocusTraversalPolicy

    public void setFocusTraversalPolicy(FocusTraversalPolicy policy)
    Sets the focus traversal policy that will manage keyboard traversal of this Container's children, if this Container is a focus cycle root. If the argument is null, this Container inherits its policy from its focus- cycle-root ancestor. If the argument is non-null, this policy will be inherited by all focus-cycle-root children that have no keyboard- traversal policy of their own (as will, recursively, their focus-cycle- root children).

    If this Container is not a focus cycle root, the policy will be remembered, but will not be used or inherited by this or any other Containers until this Container is made a focus cycle root.

    Parameters:
    policy - the new focus traversal policy for this Container

  • isFocusTraversalPolicySet

    public boolean isFocusTraversalPolicySet()
    Returns whether the focus traversal policy has been explicitly set for this Container. If this method returns false, this Container will inherit its focus traversal policy from an ancestor.
    Returns:
    true if the focus traversal policy has been explicitly set for this Container; false otherwise.
    Since:
    1.4

method:setFocusCycleRoot(boolean) [NONE]

  • setFocusCycleRoot

    public void setFocusCycleRoot(boolean focusCycleRoot)
    Sets whether this Container is the root of a focus traversal cycle. Once focus enters a traversal cycle, typically it cannot leave it via focus traversal unless one of the up- or down-cycle keys is pressed. Normal traversal is limited to this Container, and all of this Container's descendants that are not descendants of inferior focus cycle roots. Note that a FocusTraversalPolicy may bend these restrictions, however. For example, ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy supports implicit down-cycle traversal.

    The alternative way to specify the traversal order of this Container's children is to make this Container a focus traversal policy provider .

    Parameters:
    focusCycleRoot - indicates whether this Container is the root of a focus traversal cycle

method:transferFocusDownCycle() [NONE]

  • transferFocusDownCycle

    public void transferFocusDownCycle()
    Transfers the focus down one focus traversal cycle. If this Container is a focus cycle root, then the focus owner is set to this Container's default Component to focus, and the current focus cycle root is set to this Container. If this Container is not a focus cycle root, then no focus traversal operation occurs.

method:addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener) [NONE]

  • addPropertyChangeListener

    public void addPropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)
    Adds a PropertyChangeListener to the listener list. The listener is registered for all bound properties of this class, including the following:
    • this Container's font ("font")
    • this Container's background color ("background")
    • this Container's foreground color ("foreground")
    • this Container's focusability ("focusable")
    • this Container's focus traversal keys enabled state ("focusTraversalKeysEnabled")

    • this Container's focus traversal policy ("focusTraversalPolicy")
    • this Container's focus-cycle-root state ("focusCycleRoot")
    Note that if this Container is inheriting a bound property, then no event will be fired in response to a change in the inherited property.

    If listener is null, no exception is thrown and no action is performed.
