JComponent

public abstract class JComponent extends Container implements Serializable
The base class for all Swing components except top-level containers. To use a component that inherits from JComponent, you must place the component in a containment hierarchy whose root is a top-level Swing container. Top-level Swing containers -- such as JFrame, JDialog, and JApplet -- are specialized components that provide a place for other Swing components to paint themselves. For an explanation of containment hierarchies, see Swing Components and the Containment Hierarchy, a section in The Java Tutorial.

The JComponent class provides:

  • The base class for both standard and custom components that use the Swing architecture.
  • A "pluggable look and feel" (L&F) that can be specified by the programmer or (optionally) selected by the user at runtime. The look and feel for each component is provided by a UI delegate -- an object that descends from {@link javax.swing.plaf.ComponentUI}. See How to Set the Look and Feel in The Java Tutorial for more information.
  • Comprehensive keystroke handling. See the document Keyboard Bindings in Swing, an article in The Swing Connection, for more information.
  • Support for tool tips -- short descriptions that pop up when the cursor lingers over a component. See How to Use Tool Tips in The Java Tutorial for more information.
  • Support for accessibility. JComponent contains all of the methods in the Accessible interface, but it doesn't actually implement the interface. That is the responsibility of the individual classes that extend JComponent.
  • Support for component-specific properties. With the {@link #putClientProperty} and {@link #getClientProperty} methods, you can associate name-object pairs with any object that descends from JComponent.
  • An infrastructure for painting that includes double buffering and support for borders. For more information see Painting and How to Use Borders, both of which are sections in The Java Tutorial.
For more information on these subjects, see the Swing package description and The Java Tutorial section The JComponent Class.

JComponent and its subclasses document default values for certain properties. For example, JTable documents the default row height as 16. Each JComponent subclass that has a ComponentUI will create the ComponentUI as part of its constructor. In order to provide a particular look and feel each ComponentUI may set properties back on the JComponent that created it. For example, a custom look and feel may require JTables to have a row height of 24. The documented defaults are the value of a property BEFORE the ComponentUI has been installed. If you need a specific value for a particular property you should explicitly set it.

In release 1.4, the focus subsystem was rearchitected. For more information, see How to Use the Focus Subsystem, a section in The Java Tutorial.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.

see
#getDefaultLocale

        super();

	// bindings will work everywhere. This is a partial fix to BugID
	// 4282211.

booleanalwaysOnTop()
Returns whether this component should be guaranteed to be on top. For example, it would make no sense for Menus to pop up under another component, so they would always return true. Most components will want to return false, hence that is the default.

return

	return false;
    
booleancheckIfChildObscuredBySibling()
Returns true, which implies that before checking if a child should be painted it is first check that the child is not obscured by another sibling. This is only checked if isOptimizedDrawingEnabled returns false.

return
always returns true

	return true;

voidcomponentInputMapChanged(javax.swing.ComponentInputMap inputMap)
Invoked from ComponentInputMap when its bindings change. If inputMap is the current windowInputMap (or a parent of the window InputMap) the KeyboardManager is notified of the new bindings.

param
inputMap the map containing the new bindings

        computeVisibleRect(visibleRect);
        return visibleRect;
    
public intgetWidth()
Returns the current width of this component. This method is preferable to writing component.getBounds().width, or component.getSize().width because it doesn't cause any heap allocations.

return
the current width of this component

 return super.getWidth(); 
static bytegetWriteObjCounter(javax.swing.JComponent comp)

        return (byte)((comp.flags >> WRITE_OBJ_COUNTER_FIRST) & 0xFF);
    
public intgetX()
Returns the current x coordinate of the component's origin. This method is preferable to writing component.getBounds().x, or component.getLocation().x because it doesn't cause any heap allocations.

return
the current x coordinate of the component's origin

 return super.getX(); 
public intgetY()
Returns the current y coordinate of the component's origin. This method is preferable to writing component.getBounds().y, or component.getLocation().y because it doesn't cause any heap allocations.

return
the current y coordinate of the component's origin

 return super.getY(); 
public voidgrabFocus()
Requests that this Component get the input focus, and that this Component's top-level ancestor become the focused Window. This component must be displayable, visible, and focusable for the request to be granted.

This method is intended for use by focus implementations. Client code should not use this method; instead, it should use requestFocusInWindow().

see
#requestFocusInWindow()

public booleanisManagingFocus()
In release 1.4, the focus subsystem was rearchitected. For more information, see How to Use the Focus Subsystem, a section in The Java Tutorial.

Changes this JComponent's focus traversal keys to CTRL+TAB and CTRL+SHIFT+TAB. Also prevents SortingFocusTraversalPolicy from considering descendants of this JComponent when computing a focus traversal cycle.

deprecated
As of 1.4, replaced by Component.setFocusTraversalKeys(int, Set) and Container.setFocusCycleRoot(boolean).

	return false;
    
public booleanisOpaque()
Returns true if this component is completely opaque.

An opaque component paints every pixel within its rectangular bounds. A non-opaque component paints only a subset of its pixels or none at all, allowing the pixels underneath it to "show through". Therefore, a component that does not fully paint its pixels provides a degree of transparency.

Subclasses that guarantee to always completely paint their contents should override this method and return true.

return
true if this component is completely opaque
see
#setOpaque

        return getFlag(IS_OPAQUE);
    
public booleanisOptimizedDrawingEnabled()
Returns true if this component tiles its children -- that is, if it can guarantee that the children will not overlap. The repainting system is substantially more efficient in this common case. JComponent subclasses that can't make this guarantee, such as JLayeredPane, should override this method to return false.

return
always returns true

        return true;
    
booleanisPainting()
Returns true if this component, or any of it's ancestors, are in the processing of painting.

        Container component = this;
        while (component != null) {
            if (component instanceof JComponent &&

        }
        return false;
    
booleanisPaintingOrigin()
Returns true if a paint triggered on a child component should cause painting to originate from this Component, or one of its ancestors.

return
true if painting should originate from this Component or one of its ancestors.

        return false;
    
public booleanisPaintingTile()
Returns true if the component is currently painting a tile. If this method returns true, paint will be called again for another tile. This method returns false if you are not painting a tile or if the last tile is painted. Use this method to keep some state you might need between tiles.

return
true if the component is currently painting a tile, false otherwise

        return getFlag(IS_PAINTING_TILE);
    
public booleanisRequestFocusEnabled()
Returns true if this JComponent should get focus; otherwise returns false.

public voidpaint(java.awt.Graphics g)
Invoked by Swing to draw components. Applications should not invoke paint directly, but should instead use the repaint method to schedule the component for redrawing.

This method actually delegates the work of painting to three protected methods: paintComponent, paintBorder, and paintChildren. They're called in the order listed to ensure that children appear on top of component itself. Generally speaking, the component and its children should not paint in the insets area allocated to the border. Subclasses can just override this method, as always. A subclass that just wants to specialize the UI (look and feel) delegate's paint method should just override paintComponent.

protected voidpaintBorder(java.awt.Graphics g)
Paints the component's border.

If you override this in a subclass you should not make permanent changes to the passed in Graphics. For example, you should not alter the clip Rectangle or modify the transform.

protected voidpaintComponent(java.awt.Graphics g)
Calls the UI delegate's paint method, if the UI delegate is non-null. We pass the delegate a copy of the Graphics object to protect the rest of the paint code from irrevocable changes (for example, Graphics.translate).

If you override this in a subclass you should not make permanent changes to the passed in Graphics. For example, you should not alter the clip Rectangle or modify the transform. If you need to do these operations you may find it easier to create a new Graphics from the passed in Graphics and manipulate it. Further, if you do not invoker super's implementation you must honor the opaque property, that is if this component is opaque, you must completely fill in the background in a non-opaque color. If you do not honor the opaque property you will likely see visual artifacts.

The passed in Graphics object might have a transform other than the identify transform installed on it. In this case, you might get unexpected results if you cumulatively apply another transform.

public voidpaintImmediately(int x, int y, int w, int h)
Paints the specified region in this component and all of its descendants that overlap the region, immediately.

It's rarely necessary to call this method. In most cases it's more efficient to call repaint, which defers the actual painting and can collapse redundant requests into a single paint call. This method is useful if one needs to update the display while the current event is being dispatched.

param
x the x value of the region to be painted
param
y the y value of the region to be painted
param
w the width of the region to be painted

Adds an arbitrary key/value "client property" to this component.

The get/putClientProperty methods provide access to a small per-instance hashtable. Callers can use get/putClientProperty to annotate components that were created by another module. For example, a layout manager might store per child constraints this way. For example:

componentA.putClientProperty("to the left of", componentB);
If value is null this method will remove the property. Changes to client properties are reported with PropertyChange events. The name of the property (for the sake of PropertyChange events) is key.toString().

The clientProperty dictionary is not intended to support large scale extensions to JComponent nor should be it considered an alternative to subclassing when designing a new component.

public voidregisterKeyboardAction(java.awt.event.ActionListener anAction, java.lang.String aCommand, javax.swing.KeyStroke aKeyStroke, int aCondition)
This method is now obsolete, please use a combination of getActionMap() and getInputMap() for similiar behavior. For example, to bind the KeyStroke aKeyStroke to the Action anAction now use:
component.getInputMap().put(aKeyStroke, aCommand);
component.getActionMap().put(aCommmand, anAction);
The above assumes you want the binding to be applicable for WHEN_FOCUSED. To register bindings for other focus states use the getInputMap method that takes an integer.

Register a new keyboard action. anAction will be invoked if a key event matching aKeyStroke occurs and aCondition is verified. The KeyStroke object defines a particular combination of a keyboard key and one or more modifiers (alt, shift, ctrl, meta).

The aCommand will be set in the delivered event if specified.

The aCondition can be one of:

WHEN_FOCUSED
The action will be invoked only when the keystroke occurs while the component has the focus.
WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW
The action will be invoked when the keystroke occurs while the component has the focus or if the component is in the window that has the focus. Note that the component need not be an immediate descendent of the window -- it can be anywhere in the window's containment hierarchy. In other words, whenever any component in the window has the focus, the action registered with this component is invoked.
WHEN_ANCESTOR_OF_FOCUSED_COMPONENT
The action will be invoked when the keystroke occurs while the component has the focus or if the component is an ancestor of the component that has the focus.

The combination of keystrokes and conditions lets you define high level (semantic) action events for a specified keystroke+modifier combination (using the KeyStroke class) and direct to a parent or child of a component that has the focus, or to the component itself. In other words, in any hierarchical structure of components, an arbitrary key-combination can be immediately directed to the appropriate component in the hierarchy, and cause a specific method to be invoked (usually by way of adapter objects).

If an action has already been registered for the receiving container, with the same charCode and the same modifiers, anAction will replace the action.

param
anAction the Action to be registered
param
aCommand the command to be set in the delivered event
param
aKeyStroke the KeyStroke to bind to the action

public voidrevalidate()
Supports deferred automatic layout.

Calls invalidate and then adds this component's validateRoot to a list of components that need to be validated. Validation will occur after all currently pending events have been dispatched. In other words after this method is called, the first validateRoot (if any) found when walking up the containment hierarchy of this component will be validated. By default, JRootPane, JScrollPane, and JTextField return true from isValidateRoot.

This method will automatically be called on this component when a property value changes such that size, location, or internal layout of this component has been affected. This automatic updating differs from the AWT because programs generally no longer need to invoke validate to get the contents of the GUI to update.

The synthetic events make it appear that the drag gesture has resumed in the direction established when the component's boundary was crossed. Components that support autoscrolling must handle mouseDragged events by calling scrollRectToVisible with a rectangle that contains the mouse event's location. All of the Swing components that support item selection and are typically displayed in a JScrollPane (JTable, JList, JTree, JTextArea, and JEditorPane) already handle mouse dragged events in this way. To enable autoscrolling in any other component, add a mouse motion listener that calls scrollRectToVisible. For example, given a JPanel, myPanel:
MouseMotionListener doScrollRectToVisible = new MouseMotionAdapter() {
public void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e) {
Rectangle r = new Rectangle(e.getX(), e.getY(), 1, 1);
((JPanel)e.getSource()).scrollRectToVisible(r);
}
};
myPanel.addMouseMotionListener(doScrollRectToVisible);
The default value of the autoScrolls property is false.

param
autoscrolls if true, synthetic mouse dragged events are generated when the mouse is dragged outside of a component's bounds and the mouse button continues to be held down; otherwise false

public voidsetBorder(javax.swing.border.Border border)
Sets the border of this component. The Border object is responsible for defining the insets for the component (overriding any insets set directly on the component) and for optionally rendering any border decorations within the bounds of those insets. Borders should be used (rather than insets) for creating both decorative and non-decorative (such as margins and padding) regions for a swing component. Compound borders can be used to nest multiple borders within a single component.

Although technically you can set the border on any object that inherits from JComponent, the look and feel implementation of many standard Swing components doesn't work well with user-set borders. In general, when you want to set a border on a standard Swing component other than JPanel or JLabel, we recommend that you put the component in a JPanel and set the border on the JPanel.

This is a bound property.

            repaint();
        }
    
public voidsetComponentPopupMenu(javax.swing.JPopupMenu popup)
Sets the JPopupMenu for this JComponent. The UI is responsible for registering bindings and adding the necessary listeners such that the JPopupMenu will be shown at the appropriate time. When the JPopupMenu is shown depends upon the look and feel: some may show it on a mouse event, some may enable a key binding.

If popup is null, and getInheritsPopupMenu returns true, then getComponentPopupMenu will be delegated to the parent. This provides for a way to make all child components inherit the popupmenu of the parent.

This is a bound property.

public voidsetDebugGraphicsOptions(int debugOptions)
Enables or disables diagnostic information about every graphics operation performed within the component or one of its children.

param
debugOptions determines how the component should display the information; one of the following options:
  • DebugGraphics.LOG_OPTION - causes a text message to be printed.
  • DebugGraphics.FLASH_OPTION - causes the drawing to flash several times.
  • DebugGraphics.BUFFERED_OPTION - creates an ExternalWindow that displays the operations performed on the View's offscreen buffer.
  • DebugGraphics.NONE_OPTION disables debugging.
  • A value of 0 causes no changes to the debugging options.
debugOptions is bitwise OR'd into the current value

public static voidsetDefaultLocale(java.util.Locale l)
Sets the default locale used to initialize each JComponent's locale property upon creation. The initial value is the VM's default locale. The default locale has "AppContext" scope so that applets (and potentially multiple lightweight applications running in a single VM) can have their own setting. An applet can safely alter its default locale because it will have no affect on other applets (or the browser).

param

public voidsetDoubleBuffered(boolean aFlag)
Sets whether the this component should use a buffer to paint. If set to true, all the drawing from this component will be done in an offscreen painting buffer. The offscreen painting buffer will the be copied onto the screen. Swings painting system always uses a maximum of one double buffer. If a Component is buffered and one of its ancestor is also buffered, the ancestor buffer will be used.

param

public voidsetEnabled(boolean enabled)
Sets whether or not this component is enabled. A component that is enabled may respond to user input, while a component that is not enabled cannot respond to user input. Some components may alter their visual representation when they are disabled in order to provide feedback to the user that they cannot take input.

Note: Disabling a component does not disable it's children.

Note: Disabling a lightweight component does not prevent it from receiving MouseEvents.

public voidsetRequestFocusEnabled(boolean requestFocusEnabled)
Provides a hint as to whether or not this JComponent should get focus. This is only a hint, and it is up to consumers that are requesting focus to honor this property. This is typically honored for mouse operations, but not keyboard operations. For example, look and feels could verify this property is true before requesting focus during a mouse operation. This would often times be used if you did not want a mouse press on a JComponent to steal focus, but did want the JComponent to be traversable via the keyboard. If you do not want this JComponent focusable at all, use the setFocusable method instead.

public voidunregisterKeyboardAction(javax.swing.KeyStroke aKeyStroke)
This method is now obsolete. To unregister an existing binding you can either remove the binding from the ActionMap/InputMap, or place a dummy binding the InputMap. Removing the binding from the InputMap allows bindings in parent InputMaps to be active, whereas putting a dummy binding in the InputMap effectively disables the binding from ever happening.

Unregisters a keyboard action. This will remove the binding from the ActionMap (if it exists) as well as the InputMaps.

	ActionMap am = getActionMap(false);
	for (int counter = 0; counter < 3; counter++) {
	    InputMap km = getInputMap(counter, false);

public voidupdate(java.awt.Graphics g)
Calls paint. Doesn't clear the background but see ComponentUI.update, which is called by paintComponent.

param
g the Graphics context in which to paint

javax.swing.plaf.ComponentUI

        paint(g);
    
public voidupdateUI()
Resets the UI property to a value from the current look and feel. JComponent subclasses must override this method like this:
public void updateUI() {
setUI((SliderUI)UIManager.getUI(this);
}

private voidwriteObject(java.io.ObjectOutputStream s)
Before writing a JComponent to an ObjectOutputStream we temporarily uninstall its UI. This is tricky to do because we want to uninstall the UI before any of the JComponent's children (or its LayoutManager etc.) are written, and we don't want to restore the UI until the most derived JComponent subclass has been been stored.

param
s the ObjectOutputStream in which to write

        s.defaultWriteObject();
        if (getUIClassID().equals(uiClassID)) {
            byte count = JComponent.getWriteObjCounter(this);
            JComponent.setWriteObjCounter(this, --count);
            if (count == 0 && ui != null) {
                ui.installUI(this);
            }
        }
        ArrayTable.writeArrayTable(s, clientProperties);
