public class TopFrame
extends javax.swing.JFrame

A configurable frame that can be used as a main frame for applications based on JStatCom. It provides a default implementation which can be adjusted by overwriting template methods and by specifying an XML file for adding additional modules.

The files for storing configuration data are:

• TopFrame.XMLFILE for module configuration
• app.properties with the VERSION string
