Class AbstractContainerElementBuilderNode

java.lang.Object
  com.virtuosotechnologies.lib.basiccommand.builder.AbstractBuilderNode
      com.virtuosotechnologies.lib.basiccommand.builder.AbstractBranchBuilderNode
          com.virtuosotechnologies.lib.basiccommand.builder.AbstractContainerElementBuilderNode

All Implemented Interfaces:

CommandNodeListener, EventListener, PropertySetListener

Direct Known Subclasses:

AbstractAWTContainerBuilderNode, ComboBoxBuilderNode

public abstract class AbstractContainerElementBuilderNode

extends AbstractBranchBuilderNode

A branch builder that creates an element that can contain other elements. Subclasses need to implement getChildNode(), createInitialElement(), and the add/set/removeElements methods.

A lot of this implementation is identical to AbstractElementBuilderNode, but alas, Java lacks multiple implementation inheritance.

Method Detail

getCardinality

protected int getCardinality()

Get the cardinality (number of swing objects this node represents). Most things have a cardinality of 1. Groups have variable cardinality.

Specified by:

getCardinality in class AbstractBuilderNode

getElement

protected Object getElement()

Get the element

hiddenStateChanged

protected void hiddenStateChanged(boolean nowHidden)

The hidden state has changed.

Specified by:

hiddenStateChanged in class AbstractBuilderNode

disabledStateChanged

protected void disabledStateChanged(boolean nowDisabled)

The disabled state has changed.

Specified by:

disabledStateChanged in class AbstractBuilderNode

createInitialElement

protected abstract Object createInitialElement()

Override this method to create the initial element object.
