addNotify

public void addNotify(java.awt.peer.ComponentPeer peer)

Suppressed: Notify the DropTarget that it has been associated with a Component This method is usually called from java.awt.Component.addNotify() of the Component associated with this DropTarget to notify the DropTarget that a ComponentPeer has been associated with that Component. Calling this method, other than to notify this DropTarget of the association of the ComponentPeer with the Component may result in a malfunction of the DnD system.

Parameters:

peer - The Peer of the Component we are associated with!

removeNotify

public void removeNotify(java.awt.peer.ComponentPeer peer)

Suppressed: Notify the DropTarget that it has been disassociated from a Component This method is usually called from java.awt.Component.removeNotify() of the Component associated with this DropTarget to notify the DropTarget that a ComponentPeer has been disassociated with that Component. Calling this method, other than to notify this DropTarget of the disassociation of the ComponentPeer from the Component may result in a malfunction of the DnD system.

Parameters:

peer - The Peer of the Component we are being disassociated from!

getDropTargetContext

public DropTargetContext getDropTargetContext()

Enabled: Gets the DropTargetContext associated with this DropTarget.

Returns:

the DropTargetContext associated with this DropTarget.

createDropTargetContext

protected DropTargetContext createDropTargetContext()

Creates the DropTargetContext associated with this DropTarget. Subclasses may override this method to instantiate their own DropTargetContext subclass. This call is typically *only* called by the platform's DropTargetContextPeer as a drag operation encounters this DropTarget. Accessing the Context while no Drag is current has undefined results.

writeObject

private void writeObject(ObjectOutputStream s)
                  throws IOException

Serializes this DropTarget. Performs default serialization, and then writes out this object's DropTargetListener if and only if it can be serialized. If not, null is written instead.

IOException

Since:

1.4

readObject

private void readObject(ObjectInputStream s)
                 throws ClassNotFoundException,
                        IOException

Deserializes this DropTarget. This method first performs default deserialization for all non-transient fields. An attempt is then made to deserialize this object's DropTargetListener as well. This is first attempted by deserializing the field dtListener, because, in releases prior to 1.4, a non-transient field of this name stored the DropTargetListener. If this fails, the next object in the stream is used instead.

ClassNotFoundException

IOException

Since:

1.4
