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 c.repaint()
calls from propagating up the tree. The intermediate
container has no other effect.
The component should either descend from JComponent
or be another kind of lightweight component.
A lightweight component is one whose "lightweight" property
(returned by the Component
isLightweight
method)
is true. If the Component is not lightweight, bad things map happen:
crashes, exceptions, painting problems...

public static void updateComponentTreeUI(Component c)
updateUI()
-- that is, to initialize its UI property
with the current look and feel.
public static void invokeLater(Runnable doRun)
invokeLater
call queues
the Runnable
object doHelloWorld
on 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.invokeLater(doHelloWorld); System.out.println("This might well be displayed before the other message.");If invokeLater is called from the event dispatching thread -- for example, from a JButton's ActionListener -- the doRun.run() will still be deferred until 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 How to Use Threads, in The Java Tutorial.
As of 1.3 this method is just a cover for java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater()
.
invokeAndWait(java.lang.Runnable)
public static void invokeAndWait(Runnable doRun) throws InterruptedException, InvocationTargetException
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 How to Use Threads, in The Java Tutorial.
As of 1.3 this method is just a cover for java.awt.EventQueue.invokeAndWait()
.
InterruptedException

the event dispatching thread to finish excecuting doRun.run()

, if one exists.
Otherwise returns null
.

public static Component findFocusOwner(Component c)
KeyboardFocusManager.getFocusOwner()
.
Component
of the specified
Component

KeyboardFocusManager.getFocusOwner()
public static JRootPane getRootPane(Component c)
public static Component getRoot(Component c)
public static boolean processKeyBindings(KeyEvent event)
Component
associated with
event
. This method is only useful if
event.getComponent()
does not descend from
JComponent
, or your are not invoking
super.processKeyEvent
from within your
JComponent
subclass. JComponent
automatically processes bindings from within its
processKeyEvent
method, hence you rarely need
to directly invoke this method.
event
- KeyEvent used to identify which bindings to process, as
well as which Component has focus.
public static boolean notifyAction(Action action, KeyStroke ks, KeyEvent event, Object sender, int modifiers)
actionPerformed
on action
if
action
is enabled (and non null). The command for the
ActionEvent is determined by:
registerKeyboardAction
, then the command string
passed in (null will be used if null was passed in).
getKeyChar
returns KeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED..
action
is non-null and
actionPerformed is invoked on it.
public static void replaceUIInputMap(JComponent component, int type, InputMap uiInputMap)
component
to uiInputMap
. If uiInputMap
is null,
this removes any previously installed UI InputMap.
public static void replaceUIActionMap(JComponent component, ActionMap uiActionMap)
component
to uiActionMap
. If uiActionMap
is null,
this removes any previously installed UI ActionMap.
public static InputMap getUIInputMap(JComponent component, int condition)
condition
in component component
.
This will return null if the UI has not installed a InputMap of the specified type.
public static ActionMap getUIActionMap(JComponent component)
component
.
This will return null if the UI has not installed an ActionMap.
public static Rectangle calculateInnerArea(JComponent c, Rectangle r)
r
and returns r
.
The position and size specify the bounds of the component,
adjusted so as not to include the border area (the insets).
This method is useful for classes
that implement painting code.
c
- the JComponent in question; if null, this method returns nullr
- the Rectangle instance to be modified;
may be null
