public class JToolBar extends JComponent implements SwingConstants, Accessible
JToolBar
provides a component that is useful for displaying commonly usedAction
s or controls. For examples and information on using tool bars see How to Use Tool Bars, a section in The Java Tutorial.With most look and feels, the user can drag out a tool bar into a separate window (unless the
floatable
property is set tofalse
). For drag-out to work correctly, it is recommended that you addJToolBar
instances to one of the four "sides" of a container whose layout manager is aBorderLayout
, and do not add children to any of the other four "sides".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 seeXMLEncoder
