        Since:

      • firePropertyChange

        protected void firePropertyChange(String propertyName,
                                  Object oldValue,
                                  Object newValue)
        Supports reporting bound property changes. This method can be called when a bound property has changed and it will send the appropriate PropertyChangeEvent to any registered PropertyChangeListeners.

      • addPropertyChangeListener

        public void addPropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)
        Adds a PropertyChangeListener to the listener list. The listener is registered for all properties.

        A PropertyChangeEvent will get fired in response to setting a bound property, e.g. setFont, setBackground, or setForeground. Note that if the current component is inheriting its foreground, background, or font from its container, then no event will be fired in response to a change in the inherited property.

        Specified by:
        addPropertyChangeListener in interface  Action
        Parameters:
        listener - The PropertyChangeListener to be added
        See Also:
        Action.addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener)

      • getPropertyChangeListeners

        public PropertyChangeListener[] getPropertyChangeListeners()
        Returns an array of all the PropertyChangeListeners added to this AbstractAction with addPropertyChangeListener().
        Returns:
        all of the PropertyChangeListeners added or an empty array if no listeners have been added
        Since:
        1.4

      • clone

        protected Object clone()
                throws CloneNotSupportedException
        Clones the abstract action. This gives the clone its own copy of the key/value list, which is not handled for you by Object.clone().
        Overrides:
        clone in class  Object
        Returns:
        a clone of this instance.
        Throws:
        CloneNotSupportedException - if the object's class does not support the Cloneable interface. Subclasses that override the clone method can also throw this exception to indicate that an instance cannot be cloned.
