Locations are computed relative to the viewR rectangle. This layoutCompoundLabel() does not know how to handle LEADING/TRAILING values in horizontalTextPosition (they will default to RIGHT) and in horizontalAlignment (they will default to CENTER). Use the other version of layoutCompoundLabel() instead.

paintComponent

public static void paintComponent(Graphics g,
                                  Component c,
                                  Container p,
                                  int x,
                                  int y,
                                  int w,
                                  int h)

Paint a component c on an abitrary graphics g in the specified rectangle, specifying the rectangle's upper left corner and size. The component is reparented to a private container (whose parent becomes p) which prevents c.validate() and and c.repaint() calls from propogating up the tree. The intermediate container has no other effect.

Parameters:

g - the Graphics object to draw on

c - the Component to draw

p - the intermedate Container

x - an int specifying the left side of the area draw in, in pixels, measured from the left edge of the graphics context

y - an int specifying the top of the area to draw in, in pixels measured down from the top edge of the graphics context

w - an int specifying the width of the area draw in, in pixels

h - an int specifying the height of the area draw in, in pixels

paintComponent

public static void paintComponent(Graphics g,
                                  Component c,
                                  Container p,
                                  Rectangle r)

Paint a component c on an abitrary graphics g in the specified rectangle, specifying a Rectangle object. The component is reparented to a private container (whose parent becomes p) which prevents c.validate() and and c.repaint() calls from propogating up the tree. The intermediate container has no other effect.

Parameters:

g - the Graphics object to draw on

c - the Component to draw

p - the intermedate Container

r - the Rectangle to draw in

updateComponentTreeUI

public static void updateComponentTreeUI(Component c)

A simple minded look and feel change: ask each node in the tree to updateUI(), i.e. to initialize its UI property with the current look and feel.

invokeLater

public static void invokeLater(Runnable doRun)

Causes doRun.run() to be executed asynchronously on the AWT event dispatching thread. This will happen after all pending AWT events have been processed. This method should be used when an application thread needs to update the GUI. In the following example the invokeAndWait() calls queues the doHelloWorld Runnable for the event dispatching thread and then prints a message.

 Runnable doHelloWorld = new Runnable() {
     public void run() {
         System.out.println("Hello World on " + Thread.currentThread());
     }
 };

 SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(doHelloWorld);
 System.out.println("Waiting ... ");
 

If invokeAndWait is called from the event dispatching thread, e.g. from a JButtons ActionListener, the doRun.run() will still be deferred till all pending events have been processed. Note that if the doRun.run() throws an uncaught exception the event dispatching thread will unwind (not the current thread).

Additional documentation and examples for this method can be found in .

See Also:

invokeAndWait(java.lang.Runnable)

invokeAndWait

public static void invokeAndWait(Runnable doRun)
                          throws InterruptedException,
                                 InvocationTargetException

Causes doRun.run() to be executed synchronously on the AWT event dispatching thread. This call will block until all pending AWT events have been processed and (then) doRun.run() returns. This method should be used when an application thread needs to update the GUI. It should not be called from the EventDispatchThread. Here's an example that creates a new application thread that uses invokeAndWait() to print a string from the event dispatching thread and then, when that's finished, print a string from the application thread.

 final Runnable doHelloWorld = new Runnable() {
     public void run() {
         System.out.println("Hello World on " + Thread.currentThread());
     }
 };

 Thread appThread = new Thread() {
     public void run() {
         try {
             SwingUtilities.invokeAndWait(doHelloWorld);
         }
         catch (Exception e) {
             e.printStackTrace();
         }
         System.out.println("Finished on " + Thread.currentThread());
     }
 };
 appThread.start();
 

Note that if the Runnable.run() method throws an uncaught exception (on the event dispatching thread) it's caught and rethrown, as an InvocationTargetException, on the callers thread.

Additional documentation and examples for this method can be found in .

Throws:

InterruptedException - If we're interrupted while waiting for the event dispatching thread to finish excecuting doRun.run()

InvocationTargetException - If doRun.run() throws

See Also:

invokeLater(java.lang.Runnable)

Returns:

true if the current thread is an AWT event dispatching thread

getAccessibleIndexInParent

the Accessible at the specified location, if it exists

getAccessibleStateSet

public static AccessibleStateSet getAccessibleStateSet(Component c)

Get the state of this object.

Returns:

an instance of AccessibleStateSet containing the current state set of the object

See Also:

AccessibleState

getAccessibleChildrenCount

public static int getAccessibleChildrenCount(Component c)

Returns the number of accessible children in the object. If all of the children of this object implement Accessible, than this method should return the number of children of this object.
