resourceBundles

defaultLocale

private Locale defaultLocale

resourceCache

private Map resourceCache

Maps from a Locale to a cached Map of the ResourceBundle. This is done so as to avoid an exception being thrown when a value is asked for. Access to this should be done while holding a lock on the UIDefaults, eg synchronized(this).

Constructor Detail

UIDefaults

public UIDefaults()

Suppressed: Create an empty defaults table.

UIDefaults

public UIDefaults(Object[] keyValueList)

Suppressed: Create a defaults table initialized with the specified key/value pairs. For example:

        Object[] uiDefaults = {
             "Font", new Font("Dialog", Font.BOLD, 12),
            "Color", Color.red,
             "five", new Integer(5)
        }
        UIDefaults myDefaults = new UIDefaults(uiDefaults);
 

Parameters:

keyValueList - an array of objects containing the key/value pairs

Method Detail

get

public Object get(Object key)

Suppressed: Returns the value for key. If the value is a UIDefaults.LazyValue then the real value is computed with LazyValue.createValue(), the table entry is replaced, and the real value is returned. If the value is an UIDefaults.ActiveValue the table entry is not replaced - the value is computed with ActiveValue.createValue() for each get() call. If the key is not found in the table then it is searched for in the list of resource bundles maintained by this object. The resource bundles are searched most recently added first using the locale returned by getDefaultLocale. LazyValues and ActiveValues are not supported in the resource bundles.

Specified by:

get in interface Map

Overrides:

get in class Hashtable

Parameters:

key - the desired key

Returns:

the value for key

Since:

1.4

See Also:

LazyValue, ActiveValue, java.util.Hashtable#get, getDefaultLocale(), addResourceBundle(java.lang.String)

get

public Object get(Object key,

Suppressed: Returns the value for key associated with the given locale. If the value is a UIDefaults.LazyValue then the real value is computed with LazyValue.createValue(), the table entry is replaced, and the real value is returned. If the value is an UIDefaults.ActiveValue the table entry is not replaced - the value is computed with ActiveValue.createValue() for each get() call. If the key is not found in the table then it is searched for in the list of resource bundles maintained by this object. The resource bundles are searched most recently added first using the given locale. LazyValues and ActiveValues are not supported in the resource bundles.

put

public Object put(Object key,
                  Object value)

See Also:

See Also:

getUI(javax.swing.JComponent)

Parameters:

target - the JComponent which needs a UI

Returns:

the ComponentUI object

addPropertyChangeListener

public void addPropertyChangeListener(java.beans.PropertyChangeListener listener)

oldValue - the old value of the property

newValue - the new value of the property

See Also:

java.beans.PropertyChangeSupport

addResourceBundle

public void addResourceBundle(String bundleName)

Suppressed: Adds a resource bundle to the list of resource bundles that are searched for localized values. Resource bundles are searched in the reverse order they were added. In other words, the most recently added bundle is searched first.

Parameters:

Since:

1.4

See Also:

java.util.ResourceBundle, removeResourceBundle(java.lang.String)

removeResourceBundle

setDefaultLocale

public void setDefaultLocale(Locale l)

Suppressed: Sets the default locale. The default locale is used in retrieving localized values via get methods that do not take a locale argument.

The default locale exists to provide compatibility with pre 1.4 behaviour.

Since:

1.4

See Also:

getDefaultLocale(), get(Object), get(Object,Locale)

getDefaultLocale

public Locale getDefaultLocale()

Suppressed: Returns the default locale. The default locale is used in retrieving localized values via get methods that do not take a locale argument. As of release 1.4, Swing UI objects should retrieve localized values using the locale of their component rather than the default locale. The default locale exists to provide compatibility with pre 1.4 behaviour.
