Method Detail

• createUI

  public static ComponentUI createUI(JComponent c)

  Creates a new UI object for the given component.

  Parameters:

  c - component to create UI object for

  Returns:

  the UI object

• installUI

  public void installUI(JComponent c)

  Configures the specified component appropriately for the look and feel. This method is invoked when the ComponentUI instance is being installed as the UI delegate on the specified component. This method should completely configure the component for the look and feel, including the following:

  1. Install default property values for color, fonts, borders, icons, opacity, etc. on the component. Whenever possible, property values initialized by the client program should not be overridden.
  2. Install a LayoutManager on the component if necessary.
  3. Create/add any required sub-components to the component.
  4. Create/install event listeners on the component.
  5. Create/install a PropertyChangeListener on the component in order to detect and respond to component property changes appropriately.
  6. Install keyboard UI (mnemonics, traversal, etc.) on the component.
  7. Initialize any appropriate instance data.

  Overrides:

  installUI in class  BasicPanelUI

  Parameters:

  c - the component where this UI delegate is being installed

  ComponentUI.uninstallUI(javax.swing.JComponent), JComponent.setUI(javax.swing.plaf.ComponentUI), JComponent.updateUI()

• uninstallUI

  public void uninstallUI(JComponent c)

  Reverses configuration which was done on the specified component during installUI. This method is invoked when this UIComponent instance is being removed as the UI delegate for the specified component. This method should undo the configuration performed in installUI, being careful to leave the JComponent instance in a clean state (no extraneous listeners, look-and-feel-specific property objects, etc.). This should include the following:

  1. Remove any UI-set borders from the component.
  2. Remove any UI-set layout managers on the component.
  3. Remove any UI-added sub-components from the component.
  4. Remove any UI-added event/property listeners from the component.
  5. Remove any UI-installed keyboard UI from the component.
  6. Nullify any allocated instance data objects to allow for GC.

  Overrides:

  uninstallUI in class  BasicPanelUI

  Parameters:

  c - the component from which this UI delegate is being removed; this argument is often ignored, but might be used if the UI object is stateless and shared by multiple components

  See Also:

  ComponentUI.installUI(javax.swing.JComponent), JComponent.updateUI()

• installListeners

  protected void installListeners(JPanel p)

  Installs listeners into the panel.

  Parameters:

  p - the JPanel object

• uninstallListeners

  protected void uninstallListeners(JPanel p)

  Uninstalls listeners from the panel.

  Parameters:

  p - the JPanel object

• installDefaults

  protected void installDefaults(JPanel p)

• uninstallDefaults

  protected void uninstallDefaults(JPanel p)

• getContext

  public SynthContext getContext(JComponent c)

  Returns the Context for the specified component.

  Specified by:

  getContext in interface  SynthUI

  Parameters:

  c - Component requesting SynthContext.

  Returns:

  SynthContext describing component.

• update

  public void update(Graphics g,
                     JComponent c)

  Notifies this UI delegate to repaint the specified component. This method paints the component background, then calls the paint(SynthContext,Graphics) method.

  In general, this method does not need to be overridden by subclasses. All Look and Feel rendering code should reside in the paint method.

  Overrides:

  update in class  ComponentUI

  Parameters:

  g - the Graphics object used for painting

  c - the component being painted

  See Also:

  paint(SynthContext,Graphics)

• paint

  public void paint(Graphics g,
                    JComponent c)

  Paints the specified component according to the Look and Feel.

  This method is not used by Synth Look and Feel. Painting is handled by the paint(SynthContext,Graphics) method.

  Overrides:

  paint in class  ComponentUI

  Parameters:

  g - the Graphics object used for painting

  c - the component being painted

  See Also:

  paint(SynthContext,Graphics)

• paint

  protected void paint(SynthContext context,
                       Graphics g)

  Paints the specified component. This implementation does nothing.

  Parameters:

  context - context for the component being painted

  g - the Graphics object used for painting

  See Also:

  update(Graphics,JComponent)

• paintBorder

  public void paintBorder(SynthContext context,
                          Graphics g,
                          int x,
                          int y,
                          int w,
                          int h)

  Paints the border.

  Specified by:

  paintBorder in interface  SynthUI

  Parameters:

  context - a component context

  g - Graphics to paint on

  x - the X coordinate

  y - the Y coordinate

  w - width of the border

  h - height of the border

• propertyChange

  public void propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent pce)

  This method gets called when a bound property is changed.

  Specified by:

  propertyChange in interface  PropertyChangeListener

  Parameters:

  pce - A PropertyChangeEvent object describing the event source and the property that has changed.
