public interface LayoutManager
```
Defines the interface for classes that know how to lay out Containers.
Swing's painting architecture assumes the children of a JComponent do not overlap. If a JComponent's LayoutManager allows children to overlap, the JComponent must override isOptimizedDrawingEnabled to return false.

See Also:

Container, JComponent.isOptimizedDrawingEnabled()

method:addLayoutComponent(java.lang.String, java.awt.Component) [NONE]

```
void addLayoutComponent(String name,
                        Component comp)
```
If the layout manager uses a per-component string, adds the component comp to the layout, associating it with the string specified by name.

Parameters:

name - the string to be associated with the component
