Package Summary Overview Summary

class:ActionMap [NONE]

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

Direct Known Subclasses:

ActionMapUIResource
```
public class ActionMap
extends Object
implements Serializable
```
ActionMap provides mappings from Objects (called keys or Action names ) to Actions. An ActionMap is usually used with an InputMap to locate a particular action when a key is pressed. As with InputMap, an ActionMap can have a parent that is searched for keys not defined in the ActionMap.
As with InputMap if you create a cycle, eg:
```
   ActionMap am = new ActionMap();
   ActionMap bm = new ActionMap():
   am.setParent(bm);
   bm.setParent(am);
 
```

constructor:ActionMap() [NONE]

ActionMap
```
public ActionMap()
```
Creates an ActionMap with no parent and no mappings.

method:setParent(javax.swing.ActionMap) [NONE]

setParent
```
public void setParent(ActionMap map)
```
Sets this ActionMap's parent.

Parameters:

map - the ActionMap that is the parent of this one

method:getParent() [NONE]

getParent
```
public ActionMap getParent()
```
Returns this ActionMap's parent.

Returns:

the ActionMap that is the parent of this one, or null if this ActionMap has no parent

method:put(java.lang.Object, javax.swing.Action) [CHANGED]

put public void put(Object key, Action action) Adds a binding for `key` to `action`. If `action` is null, this removes the current binding for `key`. In most instances, `key` will be `action.getValue(NAME)`. Parameters: `key` - a key `action` - a binding for `key`
put public void put(Object key, Action action) Adds a binding for `key` to `action`. If `action` is null, this removes the current binding for `key`. In most instances, `key` will be `action.getValue(NAME)`.	put public void put(Object key, Action action) Adds a binding for `key` to `action`. If `action` is null, this removes the current binding for `key`. In most instances, `key` will be `action.getValue(NAME)`. Parameters: `key` - a key `action` - a binding for `key`

method:get(java.lang.Object) [CHANGED]

get public Action get(Object key) Returns the binding for `key`, messaging the parent `ActionMap` if the binding is not locally defined. Parameters: `key` - a key Returns: the binding for `key`
get public Action get(Object key) Returns the binding for `key`, messaging the parent `ActionMap` if the binding is not locally defined.	get public Action get(Object key) Returns the binding for `key`, messaging the parent `ActionMap` if the binding is not locally defined. Parameters: `key` - a key Returns: the binding for `key`

method:remove(java.lang.Object) [CHANGED]

remove public void remove(Object key) Removes the binding for `key` from this `ActionMap`. Parameters: `key` - a key
remove public void remove(Object key) Removes the binding for `key` from this `ActionMap`.	remove public void remove(Object key) Removes the binding for `key` from this `ActionMap`. Parameters: `key` - a key

method:clear() [NONE]

clear
```
public void clear()
```
Removes all the mappings from this ActionMap.

method:keys() [CHANGED]

keys public Object[] keys() Returns the `Action` names that are bound in this `ActionMap`. Returns: an array of the keys
keys public Object[] keys() Returns the `Action` names that are bound in this `ActionMap`.	keys public Object[] keys() Returns the `Action` names that are bound in this `ActionMap`. Returns: an array of the keys

method:size() [NONE]

size
```
public int size()
```
Returns the number of bindings in this ActionMap.

Returns:

the number of bindings in this ActionMap

method:allKeys() [CHANGED]

allKeys public Object[] allKeys() Returns an array of the keys defined in this `ActionMap` and its parent. This method differs from `keys()` in that this method includes the keys defined in the parent. Returns: an array of the keys
