public interface GCGridContainerInterface

An interface to define common behaviour for implementing classes intended to contain GCGrid instances.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
java.awt.Component	add(java.awt.Component c, double row, double column) Adds a component to the contained grid.
java.awt.Component	add(java.awt.Component c, double row, double column, double width, double height) Adds a component to the contained grid.
java.awt.Component	add(java.awt.Component c, double row, double column, double width, double height, int tab)
java.awt.Component	getComponentAt(int tab) Returns the component at the specified tab location.
GCInfoBar	getInfoBar() Returns the presently selected GCInfoBar for the selected container if it is a GCGridContainer.
java.awt.Container	getSelected() Returns the presently selected item.

Method Detail

getSelected

java.awt.Container getSelected()

Returns the presently selected item. For a GCGridContainer instance this returns the instance. For a GCTabbedGridContainer, it returns the selected component which may or may not be a GCGridContainer.

Returns:

the Container

getInfoBar

GCInfoBar getInfoBar()
              throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException

Returns the presently selected GCInfoBar for the selected container if it is a GCGridContainer. Throws UnsupportedOperationException otherwise.

Returns:

the GCInfoBar

Throws:

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException

add

java.awt.Component add(java.awt.Component c,
                       double row,
                       double column)

Adds a component to the contained grid. Throws UnsupportedOperationException if the target is not a GCGridContainerInterface.

Parameters:

c - - the added component, which will normally be wrapped in a GCGridElement instance.

row -

column -

Returns:

the added component

add

java.awt.Component add(java.awt.Component c,

                       double width,
                       double height)

Adds a component to the contained grid. Throws UnsupportedOperationException if the target is not a GCGridContainerInterface.

Parameters:

c - - the added component, which will normally be wrapped in a GCGridElement instance.

row -

column -

width -

height -

Returns:

the added component

add

java.awt.Component add(java.awt.Component c,
                       double row,

                       double width,
                       double height,
                       int tab)
                throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException

Throws:

java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException

getComponentAt

java.awt.Component getComponentAt(int tab)

Returns the component at the specified tab location.

Parameters:

tab -

Returns:

a Component
