Enum Constant Detail
USE_SELECTION
public static final DropMode USE_SELECTION
A component's own internal selection mechanism (or caret for text components) should be used to track the drop location.
ON
public static final DropMode ON
The drop location should be tracked in terms of the index of existing items. Useful for dropping on items in tables, lists, and trees.
INSERT
public static final DropMode INSERT
The drop location should be tracked in terms of the position where new data should be inserted. For components that manage a list of items (list and tree for example), the drop location should indicate the index where new data should be inserted. For text components the location should represent a position between characters. For components that manage tabular data (table for example), the drop location should indicate where to insert new rows, columns, or both, to accommodate the dropped data.
INSERT_ROWS
public static final DropMode INSERT_ROWS
The drop location should be tracked in terms of the row index where new rows should be inserted to accommodate the dropped data. This is useful for components that manage tabular data.
INSERT_COLS
public static final DropMode INSERT_COLS
The drop location should be tracked in terms of the column index where new columns should be inserted to accommodate the dropped data. This is useful for components that manage tabular data.
ON_OR_INSERT
public static final DropMode ON_OR_INSERT
This mode is a combination ofON
andINSERT
, specifying that data can be dropped on existing items, or in insert locations as specified byINSERT
.
ON_OR_INSERT_ROWS
public static final DropMode ON_OR_INSERT_ROWS
This mode is a combination ofON
andINSERT_ROWS
, specifying that data can be dropped on existing items, or as insert rows as specified byINSERT_ROWS
.
ON_OR_INSERT_COLS
public static final DropMode ON_OR_INSERT_COLS
This mode is a combination ofON
andINSERT_COLS
, specifying that data can be dropped on existing items, or as insert columns as specified byINSERT_COLS

Method Detail
values
public static DropMode[] values()
Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:for (DropMode c : DropMode.values()) System.out.println(c);
- Returns:
- an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared
valueOf
public static DropMode valueOf(String name)
Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)- Parameters:
-
name
- the name of the enum constant to be returned. - Returns:
- the enum constant with the specified name
- Throws:
-
IllegalArgumentException
- if this enum type has no constant with the specified name -
NullPointerException
- if the argument is null
