public class WindowEvent
extends ComponentEvent

A low-level event which indicates that a window has changed its status. This low-level event is generated by a Window object when it is opened, closed, about to close, activated or deactivated, iconified or deconified.

The event is passed to every WindowListener or WindowAdapter object which registered to receive such events using the window's addWindowListener method. (WindowAdapter objects implement the WindowListener interface.) Each such listener object gets this WindowEvent when the event occurs.

Field Detail

WINDOW_FIRST

public static final int WINDOW_FIRST
The first number in the range of ids used for window events.

WINDOW_LAST

public static final int WINDOW_LAST
The last number in the range of ids used for window events.

WINDOW_OPENED

public static final int WINDOW_OPENED
The window opened event. This event is delivered only the first time a window is made visible.

WINDOW_CLOSING

public static final int WINDOW_CLOSING
The "window is closing" event. This event is delivered when the user attempts to close the window from the window's system menu. If the program does not explicitly hide or dispose the window while processing this event, the window close operation will be cancelled.

WINDOW_CLOSED

public static final int WINDOW_CLOSED
The window closed event. This event is delivered after the window has been closed as the result of a call to dispose.

WINDOW_ICONIFIED

public static final int WINDOW_ICONIFIED
The window iconified event. This event is delivered when the window has been changed from a normal to a minimized state. For many platforms, a minimized window is displayed as the icon specified in the window's iconImage property.
See Also:
Frame#setIconImage

WINDOW_DEICONIFIED

public static final int WINDOW_DEICONIFIED
The window deiconified event type. This event is delivered when the window has been changed from a minimized to a normal state.

WINDOW_ACTIVATED

public static final int WINDOW_ACTIVATED
The window activated event type. This event is delivered when the window becomes the user's active window, which means that the window (or one of its subcomponents) will receive keyboard events.

WINDOW_DEACTIVATED

public static final int WINDOW_DEACTIVATED
The window deactivated event type. This event is delivered when a window is no longer the user's active window, which means keyboard events will no longer be delivered to the window or its subcomponents.
