public interface PopupManager
PopupManager is an interface for the editor component
to inform the editor client to show or hide a context-sensitive
popup menu in response to a user's request. The typical request
for a popup is to right-click in the editor.
The reason for the interface is to provide maximum flexibility to
clients in how them implement their own popup menus. For example,
typical Swing applications will create a JPopupMenu
that is used for the popup menu. As another example, the JDev 5.0
framework uses the ContextMenu object for handling
popup menus.
In order to display popup menus in your own client applications,
you need to build an implementation
of PopupManager that is responsible for showing or hiding
your popup menus, and register it with the editor pane by calling
addPopupManager()BasicEditorPane. When your showPopup()
method is called, build your popup menus (if necessary), and show them.
When your hidePopup() method is called, hide your popup
menus.
