Sets the ComponentOrientation property of this container and all components contained within it.

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy.

Enables or disables input method support for this component. If input method support is enabled and the component also processes key events, incoming events are offered to the current input method and will only be processed by the component or dispatched to its listeners if the input method does not consume them. By default, input method support is enabled.

Gets the background color of this component.

Gets the instance of ColorModel used to display the component on the output device.

Retrieves the language-sensitive orientation that is to be used to order the elements or text within this component. LayoutManager and Component subclasses that wish to respect orientation should call this method to get the component's orientation before performing layout or drawing.

Gets the cursor set in the component. If the component does not have a cursor set, the cursor of its parent is returned. If no cursor is set in the entire hierarchy, Cursor.DEFAULT_CURSOR is returned.

Gets the font of this component.

Gets the foreground color of this component.

Gets the locale of this component.

Gets the name of the component.

Gets the parent of this component.

Returns whether the background color has been explicitly set for this Component. If this method returns false, this Component is inheriting its background color from an ancestor.

Returns whether the cursor has been explicitly set for this Component. If this method returns false, this Component is inheriting its cursor from an ancestor.

Determines whether this component is displayable. A component is displayable when it is connected to a native screen resource.

A component is made displayable either when it is added to a displayable containment hierarchy or when its containment hierarchy is made displayable. A containment hierarchy is made displayable when its ancestor window is either packed or made visible.

A component is made undisplayable either when it is removed from a displayable containment hierarchy or when its containment hierarchy is made undisplayable. A containment hierarchy is made undisplayable when its ancestor window is disposed.

Returns true if this component is painted to an offscreen image ("buffer") that's copied to the screen later. Component subclasses that support double buffering should override this method to return true if double buffering is enabled.

Determines whether this component is enabled. An enabled component can respond to user input and generate events. Components are enabled initially by default. A component may be enabled or disabled by calling its setEnabled method.

Returns whether the font has been explicitly set for this Component. If this method returns false, this Component is inheriting its font from an ancestor.

Returns whether the foreground color has been explicitly set for this Component. If this method returns false, this Component is inheriting its foreground color from an ancestor.

A lightweight component doesn't have a native toolkit peer. Subclasses of Component and Container, other than the ones defined in this package like Button or Scrollbar, are lightweight. All of the Swing components are lightweights.

This method will always return false if this component is not displayable because it is impossible to determine the weight of an undisplayable component.

Returns true if this component is completely opaque, returns false by default.

An opaque component paints every pixel within its rectangular region. A non-opaque component paints only some of its pixels, allowing the pixels underneath it to "show through". A component that does not fully paint its pixels therefore provides a degree of transparency.

Subclasses that guarantee to always completely paint their contents should override this method and return true.

Determines whether this component is showing on screen. This means that the component must be visible, and it must be in a container that is visible and showing.

Note: sometimes there is no way to detect whether the Component is actually visible to the user. This can happen when:

• the component has been added to a visible ScrollPane but the Component is not currently in the scroll pane's view port.
• the Component is obscured by another Component or Container.

Determines whether this component should be visible when its parent is visible. Components are initially visible, with the exception of top level components such as Frame objects.

Sets the background color of this component.

The background color affects each component differently and the parts of the component that are affected by the background color may differ between operating systems.

Sets the language-sensitive orientation that is to be used to order the elements or text within this component. Language-sensitive LayoutManager and Component subclasses will use this property to determine how to lay out and draw components.

At construction time, a component's orientation is set to ComponentOrientation.UNKNOWN, indicating that it has not been specified explicitly. The UNKNOWN orientation behaves the same as ComponentOrientation.LEFT_TO_RIGHT.

To set the orientation of a single component, use this method. To set the orientation of an entire component hierarchy, use applyComponentOrientation.

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy.

Sets the cursor image to the specified cursor. This cursor image is displayed when the contains method for this component returns true for the current cursor location, and this Component is visible, displayable, and enabled. Setting the cursor of a Container causes that cursor to be displayed within all of the container's subcomponents, except for those that have a non-null cursor.

The method may have no visual effect if the Java platform implementation and/or the native system do not support changing the mouse cursor shape.

Enables or disables this component, depending on the value of the parameter b. An enabled component can respond to user input and generate events. Components are enabled initially by default.

Note: Disabling a lightweight component does not prevent it from receiving MouseEvents.

Note: Disabling a heavyweight container prevents all components in this container from receiving any input events. But disabling a lightweight container affects only this container.

Sets the font of this container.

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy.

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy.

Sets the name of the component to the specified string.

Shows or hides this component depending on the value of parameter b.

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy.

Returns an array of all the objects currently registered as FooListeners upon this Container. FooListeners are registered using the addFooListener method.

You can specify the listenerType argument with a class literal, such as FooListener.class. For example, you can query a Container c for its container listeners with the following code:

ContainerListener[] cls = (ContainerListener[])(c.getListeners(ContainerListener.class));

If no such listeners exist, this method returns an empty array.

Returns whether the Set of focus traversal keys for the given focus traversal operation has been explicitly defined for this Container. If this method returns false, this Container is inheriting the Set from an ancestor, or from the current KeyboardFocusManager.

Returns the Container which is the focus cycle root of this Component's focus traversal cycle. Each focus traversal cycle has only a single focus cycle root and each Component which is not a Container belongs to only a single focus traversal cycle. Containers which are focus cycle roots belong to two cycles: one rooted at the Container itself, and one rooted at the Container's nearest focus-cycle-root ancestor. For such Containers, this method will return the Container's nearest focus-cycle- root ancestor.

Returns the Set of focus traversal keys for a given traversal operation for this Container. (See setFocusTraversalKeys for a full description of each key.)

If a Set of traversal keys has not been explicitly defined for this Container, then this Container's parent's Set is returned. If no Set has been explicitly defined for any of this Container's ancestors, then the current KeyboardFocusManager's default Set is returned.

Returns whether focus traversal keys are enabled for this Component. Components for which focus traversal keys are disabled receive key events for focus traversal keys. Components for which focus traversal keys are enabled do not see these events; instead, the events are automatically converted to traversal operations.

Returns the focus traversal policy that will manage keyboard traversal of this Container's children, or null if this Container is not a focus cycle root. If no traversal policy has been explicitly set for this Container, then this Container's focus-cycle-root ancestor's policy is returned.

Returns true if this Component is the focus owner. This method is obsolete, and has been replaced by isFocusOwner().

Returns whether this Component can be focused.

Returns whether this Container is the root of a focus traversal cycle. Once focus enters a traversal cycle, typically it cannot leave it via focus traversal unless one of the up- or down-cycle keys is pressed. Normal traversal is limited to this Container, and all of this Container's descendants that are not descendants of inferior focus cycle roots. Note that a FocusTraversalPolicy may bend these restrictions, however. For example, ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy supports implicit down-cycle traversal.

Returns whether the specified Container is the focus cycle root of this Container's focus traversal cycle. Each focus traversal cycle has only a single focus cycle root and each Container which is not a focus cycle root belongs to only a single focus traversal cycle. Containers which are focus cycle roots belong to two cycles: one rooted at the Container itself, and one rooted at the Container's nearest focus-cycle-root ancestor. This method will return true for both such Containers in this case.

Returns true if this Component is the focus owner.

Returns whether this container provides focus traversal policy. If this property is set to true then when keyboard focus manager searches container hierarchy for focus traversal policy and encounters this container before any other container with this property as true or focus cycle roots then its focus traversal policy will be used instead of focus cycle root's policy.

Returns whether the focus traversal policy has been explicitly set for this Container. If this method returns false, this Container will inherit its focus traversal policy from an ancestor.

Requests that this Component get the input focus, and that this Component's top-level ancestor become the focused Window. This component must be displayable, focusable, visible and all of its ancestors (with the exception of the top-level Window) must be visible for the request to be granted. Every effort will be made to honor the request; however, in some cases it may be impossible to do so. Developers must never assume that this Component is the focus owner until this Component receives a FOCUS_GAINED event. If this request is denied because this Component's top-level Window cannot become the focused Window, the request will be remembered and will be granted when the Window is later focused by the user.

This method cannot be used to set the focus owner to no Component at all. Use KeyboardFocusManager.clearGlobalFocusOwner() instead.

Because the focus behavior of this method is platform-dependent, developers are strongly encouraged to use requestFocusInWindow when possible.

Note: Not all focus transfers result from invoking this method. As such, a component may receive focus without this or any of the other requestFocus methods of Component being invoked.

Requests that this Component get the input focus, if this Component's top-level ancestor is already the focused Window. This component must be displayable, focusable, visible and all of its ancestors (with the exception of the top-level Window) must be visible for the request to be granted. Every effort will be made to honor the request; however, in some cases it may be impossible to do so. Developers must never assume that this Component is the focus owner until this Component receives a FOCUS_GAINED event.

This method returns a boolean value. If false is returned, the request is guaranteed to fail. If true is returned, the request will succeed unless it is vetoed, or an extraordinary event, such as disposal of the Component's peer, occurs before the request can be granted by the native windowing system. Again, while a return value of true indicates that the request is likely to succeed, developers must never assume that this Component is the focus owner until this Component receives a FOCUS_GAINED event.

This method cannot be used to set the focus owner to no Component at all. Use KeyboardFocusManager.clearGlobalFocusOwner() instead.

The focus behavior of this method can be implemented uniformly across platforms, and thus developers are strongly encouraged to use this method over requestFocus when possible. Code which relies on requestFocus may exhibit different focus behavior on different platforms.

Note: Not all focus transfers result from invoking this method. As such, a component may receive focus without this or any of the other requestFocus methods of Component being invoked.

Sets the focusable state of this Component to the specified value. This value overrides the Component's default focusability.

Sets whether this Container is the root of a focus traversal cycle. Once focus enters a traversal cycle, typically it cannot leave it via focus traversal unless one of the up- or down-cycle keys is pressed. Normal traversal is limited to this Container, and all of this Container's descendants that are not descendants of inferior focus cycle roots. Note that a FocusTraversalPolicy may bend these restrictions, however. For example, ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy supports implicit down-cycle traversal.

The alternative way to specify the traversal order of this Container's children is to make this Container a focus traversal policy provider.

Sets the focus traversal keys for a given traversal operation for this Container.

The default values for a Container's focus traversal keys are implementation-dependent. Sun recommends that all implementations for a particular native platform use the same default values. The recommendations for Windows and Unix are listed below. These recommendations are used in the Sun AWT implementations.

Identifier	Meaning	Default
KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS	Normal forward keyboard traversal	TAB on KEY_PRESSED, CTRL-TAB on KEY_PRESSED
KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS	Normal reverse keyboard traversal	SHIFT-TAB on KEY_PRESSED, CTRL-SHIFT-TAB on KEY_PRESSED
KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS	Go up one focus traversal cycle	none
KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS		Go down one focus traversal cycle	none

To disable a traversal key, use an empty Set; Collections.EMPTY_SET is recommended.

Using the AWTKeyStroke API, client code can specify on which of two specific KeyEvents, KEY_PRESSED or KEY_RELEASED, the focus traversal operation will occur. Regardless of which KeyEvent is specified, however, all KeyEvents related to the focus traversal key, including the associated KEY_TYPED event, will be consumed, and will not be dispatched to any Container. It is a runtime error to specify a KEY_TYPED event as mapping to a focus traversal operation, or to map the same event to multiple default focus traversal operations.

If a value of null is specified for the Set, this Container inherits the Set from its parent. If all ancestors of this Container have null specified for the Set, then the current KeyboardFocusManager's default Set is used.

Sets whether focus traversal keys are enabled for this Component. Components for which focus traversal keys are disabled receive key events for focus traversal keys. Components for which focus traversal keys are enabled do not see these events; instead, the events are automatically converted to traversal operations.

Sets the focus traversal policy that will manage keyboard traversal of this Container's children, if this Container is a focus cycle root. If the argument is null, this Container inherits its policy from its focus- cycle-root ancestor. If the argument is non-null, this policy will be inherited by all focus-cycle-root children that have no keyboard- traversal policy of their own (as will, recursively, their focus-cycle- root children).

If this Container is not a focus cycle root, the policy will be remembered, but will not be used or inherited by this or any other Containers until this Container is made a focus cycle root.

Sets whether this container will be used to provide focus traversal policy. Container with this property as true will be used to acquire focus traversal policy instead of closest focus cycle root ancestor.

Transfers the focus to the next component, as though this Component were the focus owner.

Transfers the focus to the previous component, as though this Component were the focus owner.

Transfers the focus down one focus traversal cycle. If this Container is a focus cycle root, then the focus owner is set to this Container's default Component to focus, and the current focus cycle root is set to this Container. If this Container is not a focus cycle root, then no focus traversal operation occurs.

Transfers the focus up one focus traversal cycle. Typically, the focus owner is set to this Component's focus cycle root, and the current focus cycle root is set to the new focus owner's focus cycle root. If, however, this Component's focus cycle root is a Window, then the focus owner is set to the focus cycle root's default Component to focus, and the current focus cycle root is unchanged.

Gets the font metrics for the specified font. Warning: Since Font metrics are affected by the FontRenderContext and this method does not provide one, it can return only metrics for the default render context which may not match that used when rendering on the Component if Graphics2D functionality is being used. Instead metrics can be obtained at rendering time by calling Graphics.getFontMetrics() or text measurement APIs on the Font class.

Creates a graphics context for this component. This method will return null if this component is currently not displayable.

Gets the GraphicsConfiguration associated with this Component. If the Component has not been assigned a specific GraphicsConfiguration, the GraphicsConfiguration of the Component object's top-level container is returned. If the Component has been created, but not yet added to a Container, this method returns null.

Gets the location of this component in the form of a point specifying the component's top-left corner in the screen's coordinate space.

Returns the position of the mouse pointer in this Component's coordinate space if the Component is directly under the mouse pointer, otherwise returns null. If the Component is not showing on the screen, this method returns null even if the mouse pointer is above the area where the Component would be displayed. If the Component is partially or fully obscured by other Components or native windows, this method returns a non-null value only if the mouse pointer is located above the unobscured part of the Component.

For Containers it returns a non-null value if the mouse is above the Container itself or above any of its descendants. Use Container.getMousePosition(boolean) if you need to exclude children.

Sometimes the exact mouse coordinates are not important, and the only thing that matters is whether a specific Component is under the mouse pointer. If the return value of this method is null, mouse pointer is not directly above the Component.

Gets the toolkit of this component. Note that the frame that contains a component controls which toolkit is used by that component. Therefore if the component is moved from one frame to another, the toolkit it uses may change.

Appends the specified component to the end of this container. This is a convenience method for Container.addImpl(java.awt.Component, java.lang.Object, int).

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy. If the container has already been displayed, the hierarchy must be validated thereafter in order to display the added component.

Adds the specified component to this container at the given position. This is a convenience method for Container.addImpl(java.awt.Component, java.lang.Object, int).

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy. If the container has already been displayed, the hierarchy must be validated thereafter in order to display the added component.

Adds the specified component to this container with the specified constraints at the specified index. Also notifies the layout manager to add the component to the this container's layout using the specified constraints object. This is a convenience method for Container.addImpl(java.awt.Component, java.lang.Object, int).

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy. If the container has already been displayed, the hierarchy must be validated thereafter in order to display the added component.

Adds the specified component to this container. This is a convenience method for Container.addImpl(java.awt.Component, java.lang.Object, int).

This method is obsolete as of 1.1. Please use the method add(Component, Object) instead.

This method changes layout-related information, and therefore, invalidates the component hierarchy. If the container has already been displayed, the hierarchy must be validated thereafter in order to display the added component.

Gets the number of components in this panel.

Note: This method should be called under AWT tree lock.

Gets all the components in this container.

Note: This method should be called under AWT tree lock.

Returns the z-order index of the component inside the container. The higher a component is in the z-order hierarchy, the lower its index. The component with the lowest z-order index is painted last, above all other child components.

Checks if the component is contained in the component hierarchy of this container.
