Class JInternalFrame

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible, RootPaneContainer, WindowConstants


    public class JInternalFrame
    extends JComponent
    implements Accessible, WindowConstants, RootPaneContainer
    A lightweight object that provides many of the features of a native frame, including dragging, closing, becoming an icon, resizing, title display, and support for a menu bar. For task-oriented documentation and examples of using internal frames, see How to Use Internal Frames, a section in The Java Tutorial.

    Generally, you add JInternalFrames to a JDesktopPane. The UI delegates the look-and-feel-specific actions to the DesktopManager object maintained by the JDesktopPane.

    The JInternalFrame content pane is where you add child components. As a convenience, the add, remove, and setLayout methods of this class are overridden, so that they delegate calls to the corresponding methods of the ContentPane. For example, you can add a child component to an internal frame as follows:

           internalFrame.add(child);
     
    And the child will be added to the contentPane. The content pane is actually managed by an instance of JRootPane, which also manages a layout pane, glass pane, and optional menu bar for the internal frame. Please see the JRootPane documentation for a complete description of these components. Refer to RootPaneContainer for details on adding, removing and setting the LayoutManager of a JInternalFrame.

    Warning: Swing is not thread safe. For more information see Swing's Threading Policy.

    Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans™ has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

      • setClosed

        public void setClosed(boolean b)
                       throws PropertyVetoException
        Closes this internal frame if the argument is true. Do not invoke this method with a false argument; the result of invoking setClosed(false) is unspecified.

        If the internal frame is already closed, this method does nothing and returns immediately. Otherwise, this method begins by firing an INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSING event. Then this method sets the closed property to true unless a listener vetoes the property change. This method finishes by making the internal frame invisible and unselected, and then firing an INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSED event.

        Note: To reuse an internal frame that has been closed, you must add it to a container (even if you never removed it from its previous container). Typically, this container will be the JDesktopPane that previously contained the internal frame.

        Parameters:
        b - must be true
        Throws:
        PropertyVetoException - when the attempt to set the property is vetoed by the JInternalFrame

                         throws PropertyVetoException
        Selects or deselects the internal frame if it's showing. A JInternalFrame normally draws its title bar differently if it is the selected frame, which indicates to the user that this internal frame has the focus. When this method changes the state of the internal frame from deselected to selected, it fires an InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_ACTIVATED event. If the change is from selected to deselected, an InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_DEACTIVATED event is fired.
        Parameters:
        selected - a boolean, where true means this internal frame should become selected (currently active) and false means it should become deselected
        Throws:
        PropertyVetoException - when the attempt to set the property is vetoed by the JInternalFrame

      • setFrameIcon

        public void setFrameIcon(Icon icon)
        Sets an image to be displayed in the titlebar of this internal frame (usually in the top-left corner). This image is not the desktopIcon object, which is the image displayed in the JDesktop when this internal frame is iconified. Passing null to this function is valid, but the look and feel can choose the appropriate behavior for that situation, such as displaying no icon or a default icon for the look and feel.
        Parameters:
        icon - the Icon to display in the title bar

        Fires an internal frame event.
        Parameters:
        id - the type of the event being fired; one of the following:
        • InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_OPENED
        • InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSING
        • InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSED
        • InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_ICONIFIED
        • InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_DEICONIFIED
        • InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_ACTIVATED
        • InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_DEACTIVATED
        If the event type is not one of the above, nothing happens.
      • doDefaultCloseAction

        public void doDefaultCloseAction()
        Fires an INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSING event and then performs the action specified by the internal frame's default close operation. This method is typically invoked by the look-and-feel-implemented action handler for the internal frame's close button.
        Since:
        1.3
        See Also:
        setDefaultCloseOperation(int), InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSING
      • setDefaultCloseOperation

        public void setDefaultCloseOperation(int operation)
        Sets the operation that will happen by default when the user initiates a "close" on this internal frame. The possible choices are:

        DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE
        Do nothing. This requires the program to handle the operation in the internalFrameClosing method of a registered InternalFrameListener object.
        HIDE_ON_CLOSE
        Automatically make the internal frame invisible.
        DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE
        Automatically dispose of the internal frame.

        The default value is DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE. Before performing the specified close operation, the internal frame fires an INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSING event.

        Parameters:
        operation - one of the following constants defined in javax.swing.WindowConstants (an interface implemented by JInternalFrame): DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE, HIDE_ON_CLOSE, or DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE
        See Also:
        addInternalFrameListener(javax.swing.event.InternalFrameListener), getDefaultCloseOperation(), JComponent.setVisible(boolean), dispose(), InternalFrameEvent.INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSING
      • getDefaultCloseOperation

        public int getDefaultCloseOperation()
        Returns the default operation that occurs when the user initiates a "close" on this internal frame.
        Returns:
        the operation that will occur when the user closes the internal frame
        See Also:
        setDefaultCloseOperation(int)
      • pack

        public void pack()
        Causes subcomponents of this JInternalFrame to be laid out at their preferred size. Internal frames that are iconized or maximized are first restored and then packed. If the internal frame is unable to be restored its state is not changed and will not be packed.
        See Also:
        Window.pack()
      • toFront

        public void toFront()
        Brings this internal frame to the front. Places this internal frame at the top of the stacking order and makes the corresponding adjustment to other visible internal frames.
        See Also:
        Window.toFront(), moveToFront()
      • toBack

        public void toBack()
        Sends this internal frame to the back. Places this internal frame at the bottom of the stacking order and makes the corresponding adjustment to other visible internal frames.
        See Also:
        Window.toBack(), moveToBack()
      • getWarningString

        public final String getWarningString()
        Gets the warning string that is displayed with this internal frame. Since an internal frame is always secure (since it's fully contained within a window that might need a warning string) this method always returns null.
        Returns:
        null
        See Also:
        Window.getWarningString()
      • paramString

        protected String paramString()
        Returns a string representation of this JInternalFrame. This method is intended to be used only for debugging purposes, and the content and format of the returned string may vary between implementations. The returned string may be empty but may not be null.
        Overrides:
        paramString in class JComponent
        Returns:
        a string representation of this JInternalFrame
