Method Detail

• getComponentAfter

  public Component getComponentAfter(Container aContainer, Component aComponent)
  Returns the Component that should receive the focus after aComponent. aContainer must be a focus cycle root of aComponent or a focus traversal policy provider.

  By default, ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy implicitly transfers focus down-cycle. That is, during normal forward focus traversal, the Component traversed after a focus cycle root will be the focus-cycle- root's default Component to focus. This behavior can be disabled using the setImplicitDownCycleTraversal method.

  If aContainer is focus traversal policy provider, the focus is always transferred down-cycle.

  Specified by:

  getComponentAfter in class FocusTraversalPolicy

  Parameters:

  aContainer - a focus cycle root of aComponent or a focus traversal policy provider

  aComponent - a (possibly indirect) child of aContainer, or aContainer itself

  Returns:

  the Component that should receive the focus after aComponent, or null if no suitable Component can be found

  Throws:

  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer is not a focus cycle root of aComponent or focus traversal policy provider, or if either aContainer or aComponent is null

• getComponentBefore

  public Component getComponentBefore(Container aContainer, Component aComponent)
  Returns the Component that should receive the focus before aComponent. aContainer must be a focus cycle root of aComponent or a focus traversal policy provider.

  Specified by:

  getComponentBefore in class FocusTraversalPolicy

  Parameters:

  aContainer - a focus cycle root of aComponent or focus traversal policy provider

  aComponent - a (possibly indirect) child of aContainer, or aContainer itself

  Returns:

  the Component that should receive the focus before aComponent, or null if no suitable Component can be found

  Throws:

  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer is not a focus cycle root of aComponent or focus traversal policy provider, or if either aContainer or aComponent is null

• getFirstComponent

  public Component getFirstComponent(Container aContainer)
  Returns the first Component in the traversal cycle. This method is used to determine the next Component to focus when traversal wraps in the forward direction.

  Specified by:

  getFirstComponent in class FocusTraversalPolicy

  Parameters:

  aContainer - the focus cycle root or focus traversal policy provider whose first Component is to be returned

  Returns:

  the first Component in the traversal cycle of aContainer, or null if no suitable Component can be found

  Throws:

  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer is null

• getLastComponent

  public Component getLastComponent(Container aContainer)
  Returns the last Component in the traversal cycle. This method is used to determine the next Component to focus when traversal wraps in the reverse direction.

  Specified by:

  getLastComponent in class FocusTraversalPolicy

  Parameters:

  aContainer - the focus cycle root or focus traversal policy provider whose last Component is to be returned

  Returns:

  the last Component in the traversal cycle of aContainer, or null if no suitable Component can be found

  Throws:

  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer is null

• getDefaultComponent

  public Component getDefaultComponent(Container aContainer)
  Returns the default Component to focus. This Component will be the first to receive focus when traversing down into a new focus traversal cycle rooted at aContainer. The default implementation of this method returns the same Component as getFirstComponent.

  Specified by:

  getDefaultComponent in class FocusTraversalPolicy

  Parameters:

  aContainer - the focus cycle root or focus traversal policy provider whose default Component is to be returned

  Returns:

  the default Component in the traversal cycle of aContainer, or null if no suitable Component can be found

  Throws:

  java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer is null

  getFirstComponent(java.awt.Container)

• setImplicitDownCycleTraversal

  public void setImplicitDownCycleTraversal(boolean implicitDownCycleTraversal)
  Sets whether this ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy transfers focus down-cycle implicitly. If true, during normal forward focus traversal, the Component traversed after a focus cycle root will be the focus-cycle-root's default Component to focus. If false, the next Component in the focus traversal cycle rooted at the specified focus cycle root will be traversed instead. The default value for this property is true.

  Parameters:

  implicitDownCycleTraversal - whether this ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy transfers focus down-cycle implicitly

  See Also:

  getImplicitDownCycleTraversal(), getFirstComponent(java.awt.Container)

• getImplicitDownCycleTraversal

  public boolean getImplicitDownCycleTraversal()
  Returns whether this ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy transfers focus down-cycle implicitly. If true, during normal forward focus traversal, the Component traversed after a focus cycle root will be the focus-cycle-root's default Component to focus. If false, the next Component in the focus traversal cycle rooted at the specified focus cycle root will be traversed instead.

  Returns:

  whether this ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy transfers focus down-cycle implicitly

  See Also:

  setImplicitDownCycleTraversal(boolean), getFirstComponent(java.awt.Container)

• accept

  protected boolean accept(Component aComponent)
  Determines whether a Component is an acceptable choice as the new focus owner. By default, this method will accept a Component if and only if it is visible, displayable, enabled, and focusable.

  Parameters:

  aComponent - the Component whose fitness as a focus owner is to be tested

  Returns:

  true if aComponent is visible, displayable, enabled, and focusable; false otherwise
