Field Detail

ANCESTOR_ADDED

public static final int ANCESTOR_ADDED
Enabled: An ancestor-component was added to the hierarchy of visible objects (made visible), and is currently being displayed.


ANCESTOR_REMOVED

public static final int ANCESTOR_REMOVED
Enabled: An ancestor-component was removed from the hierarchy of visible objects (hidden) and is no longer being displayed.


ANCESTOR_MOVED

public static final int ANCESTOR_MOVED

Constructor Detail

AncestorEvent

public AncestorEvent(JComponent source,
                     int id,
                     Container ancestor,
                     Container ancestorParent)
Suppressed: Constructs an AncestorEvent object to identify a change in an ancestor-component's display-status.

Parameters:
source - the JComponent that originated the event (typically this)
id - an int specifying ANCESTOR_ADDED, ANCESTOR_REMOVED or ANCESTOR_MOVED
ancestor - a Container object specifying the ancestor-component whose display-status changed
ancestorParent - a Container object specifying the ancestor's parent
Method Detail

getAncestor

public Container getAncestor()
Suppressed: Returns the ancestor that the event actually occurred on.


getAncestorParent

public Container getAncestorParent()
Suppressed: Returns the parent of the ancestor the event actually occurred on. This is most interesting in an ANCESTOR_REMOVED event, as the ancestor may no longer be in the component hierarchy.


getComponent

public JComponent getComponent()
Suppressed: Returns the component that the listener was added to.
