      extended by java.awt.ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
Direct Known Subclasses:
DefaultFocusTraversalPolicy

public class ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy
extends FocusTraversalPolicy
implements Serializable

A FocusTraversalPolicy that determines traversal order based on the order of child Components in a Container. From a particular focus cycle root, the policy makes a pre-order traversal of the Component hierarchy, and traverses a Container's children according to the ordering of the array returned by Container.getComponents(). Portions of the hierarchy that are not visible and displayable will not be searched.

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.

By default, methods of this class with return a Component only if it is visible, displayable, enabled, and focusable. Subclasses can modify this behavior by overriding the accept method.

This policy takes into account focus traversal policy providers . When searching for first/last/next/previous Component, if a focus traversal policy provider is encountered, its focus traversal policy is used to perform the search operation.

ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy


public ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy()
Method Detail

getComponentAfter


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

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 focusCycleRoot - a focus cycle root of aComponent or a focus traversal policy provider
aComponent - a (possibly indirect) child of aContainer, focusCycleRoot, or aContainer focusCycleRoot itself
Returns:
the Component that should receive the focus after aComponent, or null if no suitable Component can be found
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer focusCycleRoot is not a focus cycle root of aComponent aComponent, or focus traversal policy provider, or if either aContainer focusCycleRoot or aComponent is null

getComponentBefore


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

Specified by:
getComponentBefore in class FocusTraversalPolicy
Parameters:
aContainer focusCycleRoot - a focus cycle root of aComponent or focus traversal policy provider
aComponent - a (possibly indirect) child of aContainer, focusCycleRoot, or aContainer focusCycleRoot itself
Returns:
the Component that should receive the focus before aComponent, or null if no suitable Component can be found
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer focusCycleRoot is not a focus cycle root of aComponent aComponent, or focus traversal policy provider, or if either aContainer focusCycleRoot or aComponent is null

getFirstComponent


public ComponentgetFirstComponent(Container aContainer)  focusCycleRoot) 
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 focusCycleRoot - 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, when focusCycleRoot is the focus cycle root, or null if no suitable Component can be found
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer focusCycleRoot is null

getLastComponent


public ComponentgetLastComponent(Container aContainer)  focusCycleRoot) 
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 focusCycleRoot - 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, when focusCycleRoot is the focus cycle root, or null if no suitable Component can be found
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer focusCycleRoot is null

getDefaultComponent


public ComponentgetDefaultComponent(Container aContainer)  focusCycleRoot) 
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. focusCycleRoot. The default implementation of this method returns the same Component as getFirstComponent.

Specified by:
getDefaultComponent in class FocusTraversalPolicy
Parameters:
aContainer focusCycleRoot - 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, when focusCycleRoot is the focus cycle root, or null if no suitable Component can be found
Throws:
IllegalArgumentException - if aContainer focusCycleRoot 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
