public class JWindow
extends Window
implements Accessible, RootPaneContainer

A JWindow is a container that can be displayed anywhere on the user's desktop. It does not have the title bar, window-management buttons, or other trimmings associated with a JFrame, but it is still a "first-class citizen" of the user's desktop, and can exist anywhere on it.

The JWindow component contains a JRootPane as it's only child. The contentPane() should be the parent of any children of the JWindow. From the older java.awt.Window object you would normally do something like this:

       window.add(child);
 
However, using JWindow you would code:
       window.getContentPane().add(child);
 
The same is true of setting LayoutManagers, removing components, listing children, etc. All these methods should normally be sent to the contentPane() instead of the JWindow itself. The contentPane() will always be non-null. Attempting to set it to null will cause the JWindow to throw an exception. The default contentPane() will have a BorderLayout manager set on it.

Please see the JRootPane documentation for a complete description of the contentPane(), glassPane(), and layeredPane() components.

For the keyboard keys used by this component in the standard Look and Feel (L&F) renditions, see the JWindow key assignments.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. A future release of Swing will provide support for long term persistence.
