Class MenuManager

java.lang.Object
  oracle.ide.controller.MenuManager

Direct Known Subclasses:

ContextMenu, Menubar

public abstract class MenuManager
extends java.lang.Object

Manages the IDE's menus. The MenuManager can be used to retrieve, create, insert, and remove menus and menu items. Extension writers should use this API when working with menus in order to have a complete integration with the IDE's menu management.

This class should not be subclassed by extension writers.

Method Detail

addMenuFilter

public void addMenuFilter(MenuFilter menuFilter)

Adds a menu filter to the menu manager. Menu components which do not pass the filter will not be displayed in the menu structure.

Note that a menu filter added via Ide.getMenubar().addMenuFilter() will be applied to all context menus as well.

Parameters:

menuFilter - a menu filter. Must not be null.

Since:

11.0

removeMenuFilter

public void removeMenuFilter(MenuFilter menuFilter)

Removes a menu filter from the menu manager.

Parameters:

menuFilter - a filter previously added using addMenuFilter(MenuFilter). Note that a menu filter removed via Ide.getMenubar().addMenuFilter() will be removed from all context menus as well.

Since:

11.0

applyGlobalFilter

public final void applyGlobalFilter(MenuFilter filter)

Applies a filter globally. The filter will apply to the main menu and any context menus. The existing menu bar will immediately be rebuilt to include only menu components which pass the filter.

Only one filter can be in effect at any given time. If you attempt to apply a global filter while a filter is already in effect, the previous filter will be canceled.

This method primarily exists to support the ability for layouts to control menus. See the oracle.ide.layout.Layouts#registerMenuFilter(oracle.ide.layout.Layout,MenuFilter) method for details.

Parameters:

filter - a filter to apply globally. Must not be null.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalStateException - if a filter is already in effect.

java.lang.NullPointerException - if filter is null.

Since:

11.0

applyGlobalFilterImpl

protected void applyGlobalFilterImpl(MenuFilter filter)

Implements the applyGlobalFilter(MenuFilter) method.

This implementation does nothing.

Parameters:

filter - the filter to apply.

clearGlobalFilter

public final void clearGlobalFilter()

Clears the currently applied global filter, resetting menus to their default state.

You may call this method safely even if no filter is currently applied.

Since:

11.0

clearGlobalFilterImpl

protected void clearGlobalFilterImpl()

Implements the clearGlobalFilter() method.

This implementation does nothing.

Returns:

the Float mapped to the section or SECTION_UNDEFINED if the menu or section ID was not found
