public class JToggleButton

extends AbstractButton

An implementation of a two-state button. The JRadioButton and JCheckBox classes are subclasses of this class. For information on using them see How to Use Buttons, Check Boxes, and Radio Buttons, a section in The Java Tutorial.

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^TM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see java.beans.XMLEncoder.

Method Detail

paramString

protected java.lang.String paramString()

Returns a string representation of this JToggleButton. 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 AbstractButton

Returns:

a string representation of this JToggleButton.

paintComponent

protected final void paintComponent(java.awt.Graphics g)

Description copied from class: JComponent

Calls the UI delegate's paint method, if the UI delegate is non-null. We pass the delegate a copy of the Graphics object to protect the rest of the paint code from irrevocable changes (for example, Graphics.translate).

Overrides:

paintComponent in class JComponent

Parameters:

g - the Graphics object to protect

See Also:

JComponent.paint(java.awt.Graphics), ComponentUI

paintBorder

protected final void paintBorder(java.awt.Graphics g)

Description copied from class: AbstractButton

Paint the button's border if BorderPainted property is true and the button has a border.

Overrides:

paintBorder in class AbstractButton

Parameters:

g - the Graphics context in which to paint

See Also:

JComponent.paint(java.awt.Graphics), JComponent.setBorder(javax.swing.border.Border)

paintComponents

public final void paintComponents(java.awt.Graphics g)

paint

public final void paint(java.awt.Graphics g)

Description copied from class: JComponent

Invoked by Swing to draw components. Applications should not invoke paint directly, but should instead use the repaint method to schedule the component for redrawing.

This method actually delegates the work of painting to three protected methods: paintComponent, paintBorder, and paintChildren. They're called in the order listed to ensure that children appear on top of component itself. Generally speaking, the component and its children should not paint in the insets area allocated to the border. Subclasses can just override this method, as always.

Overrides:

paint in class JComponent

Parameters:

g - the Graphics context in which to paint

See Also:

JComponent.paintBorder(java.awt.Graphics), JComponent.paintChildren(java.awt.Graphics), JComponent.getComponentGraphics(java.awt.Graphics), JComponent.repaint(long, int, int, int, int)

printComponent

protected final void printComponent(java.awt.Graphics g)

Description copied from class: JComponent

This is invoked during a printing operation. This is implemented to invoke paintComponent on the component.

Overrides:

printComponent in class JComponent

Parameters:

g - the Graphics context in which to paint

See Also:

JComponent.print(java.awt.Graphics)

printBorder

protected final void printBorder(java.awt.Graphics g)

Description copied from class: JComponent

Prints the component's border. This is implemented to invoke paintBorder on the component.

Overrides:

printBorder in class JComponent

Parameters:

g - the Graphics context in which to paint

See Also:

JComponent.print(java.awt.Graphics)

printComponents

public final void printComponents(java.awt.Graphics g)
