MenuShortcut

• java.lang.Object

Fields Summary
int	key The virtual keycode for the menu shortcut. This is the keycode with which the menu shortcut will be created. Note that it is a virtual keycode, not a character, e.g. KeyEvent.VK_A, not 'a'. Note: in 1.1.x you must use setActionCommand() on a menu item in order for its shortcut to work, otherwise it will fire a null action command.
boolean	usesShift Indicates whether the shft key was pressed. If true, the shift key was pressed. If false, the shift key was not pressed
private static final long	serialVersionUID

Constructors Summary
public MenuShortcut(int key) Constructs a new MenuShortcut for the specified virtual keycode. param key the raw keycode for this MenuShortcut, as would be returned in the keyCode field of a {@link java.awt.event.KeyEvent KeyEvent} if this key were pressed. see java.awt.event.KeyEvent this(key, false);
public MenuShortcut(int key, boolean useShiftModifier) Constructs a new MenuShortcut for the specified virtual keycode. param key the raw keycode for this MenuShortcut, as would be returned in the keyCode field of a {@link java.awt.event.KeyEvent KeyEvent} if this key were pressed. param useShiftModifier indicates whether this MenuShortcut is invoked with the SHIFT key down. see java.awt.event.KeyEvent this.key = key; this.usesShift = useShiftModifier;

Methods Summary
public boolean	equals(java.awt.MenuShortcut s) Returns whether this MenuShortcut is the same as another: equality is defined to mean that both MenuShortcuts use the same key and both either use or don't use the SHIFT key. param s the MenuShortcut to compare with this. return true if this MenuShortcut is the same as another, false otherwise. since JDK1.1 return (s != null && (s.getKey() == key) && (s.usesShiftModifier() == usesShift));
public boolean	equals(java.lang.Object obj) Returns whether this MenuShortcut is the same as another: equality is defined to mean that both MenuShortcuts use the same key and both either use or don't use the SHIFT key. param obj the Object to compare with this. return true if this MenuShortcut is the same as another, false otherwise. since 1.2 if (obj instanceof MenuShortcut) { return equals( (MenuShortcut) obj ); } return false;
public int	getKey() Returns the raw keycode of this MenuShortcut. return the raw keycode of this MenuShortcut. see java.awt.event.KeyEvent since JDK1.1 return key;
public int	hashCode() Returns the hashcode for this MenuShortcut. return the hashcode for this MenuShortcut. since 1.2 return (usesShift) ? (~key) : key;
protected java.lang.String	paramString() Returns the parameter string representing the state of this MenuShortcut. This string is useful for debugging. return the parameter string of this MenuShortcut. since JDK1.1 String str = "key=" + key; if (usesShiftModifier()) { str += ",usesShiftModifier"; } return str;
public java.lang.String	toString() Returns an internationalized description of the MenuShortcut. return a string representation of this MenuShortcut. since JDK1.1 int modifiers = 0; if (!GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless()) { modifiers = Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getMenuShortcutKeyMask(); } if (usesShiftModifier()) { modifiers |= Event.SHIFT_MASK; } return KeyEvent.getKeyModifiersText(modifiers) + "+" + KeyEvent.getKeyText(key);
public boolean	usesShiftModifier() Returns whether this MenuShortcut must be invoked using the SHIFT key. return true if this MenuShortcut must be invoked using the SHIFT key, false otherwise. since JDK1.1 return usesShift;
