java.lang.Object
- java.awt.GraphicsConfigTemplate

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public abstract class GraphicsConfigTemplate extends java.lang.Object implements java.io.Serializable

The GraphicsConfigTemplate class is used to obtain a valid GraphicsConfiguration. A user instantiates one of these objects and then sets all non-default attributes as desired. The GraphicsDevice.getBestConfiguration(java.awt.GraphicsConfigTemplate) method found in the GraphicsDevice class is then called with this GraphicsConfigTemplate. A valid GraphicsConfiguration is returned that meets or exceeds what was requested in the GraphicsConfigTemplate.

Since:

1.2

Fields
	Modifier and Type	Field and Description
	PREFERRED	`static int` PREFERRED Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. public static final int PREFERRED Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. States that this feature is desired for the `GraphicsConfiguration` object. A selection with this feature is preferred over a selection that does not include this feature, although both selections can be considered valid matches. See Also: Constant Field Values
	REQUIRED	`static int` REQUIRED Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. public static final int REQUIRED Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. States that this feature is required for the `GraphicsConfiguration` object. If this feature is not available, do not select the `GraphicsConfiguration` object. See Also: Constant Field Values
	UNNECESSARY	`static int` UNNECESSARY Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. public static final int UNNECESSARY Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. States that this feature is not necessary for the selection of the `GraphicsConfiguration` object. A selection without this feature is preferred over a selection that includes this feature since it is not used. See Also: Constant Field Values

Methods
	Modifier and Type	Method and Description
	getBestConfiguration	`abstract GraphicsConfiguration` getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfiguration[] gc) Returns the "best" configuration possible that passes the criteria defined in the `GraphicsConfigTemplate`. public abstract GraphicsConfiguration getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfiguration[] gc) Returns the "best" configuration possible that passes the criteria defined in the `GraphicsConfigTemplate`. Parameters: `gc` - the array of `GraphicsConfiguration` objects to choose from. Returns: a `GraphicsConfiguration` object that is the best configuration possible. See Also: `GraphicsConfiguration`
	isGraphicsConfigSupported	`abstract boolean` isGraphicsConfigSupported(GraphicsConfiguration gc) Returns a `boolean` indicating whether or not the specified `GraphicsConfiguration` can be used to create a drawing surface that supports the indicated features. public abstract boolean isGraphicsConfigSupported(GraphicsConfiguration gc) Returns a `boolean` indicating whether or not the specified `GraphicsConfiguration` can be used to create a drawing surface that supports the indicated features. Parameters: `gc` - the `GraphicsConfiguration` object to test Returns: `true` if this `GraphicsConfiguration` object can be used to create surfaces that support the indicated features; `false` if the `GraphicsConfiguration` can not be used to create a drawing surface usable by this Java(tm) API.
