bibliothek.gui.dock.common.CWorkingArea

All Implemented Interfaces:

CStation<CSplitDockStation>, CDockable, SingleCDockable

public class CWorkingArea
extends CGridArea

A working area is an element which is always visible and contains some CDockables which can't be dragged out of it. Also no CDockable can be dropped in a CWorkingArea.
There can be more than one CWorkingArea, and the working areas can be nested.

Field Details

TYPE_ID

public static final Path TYPE_ID

The result of getTypeId()

Constructor Details

CWorkingArea

public CWorkingArea(CControl control,
 String uniqueId)

Creates a new area.

Parameters:

control - the owner of this station

uniqueId - a unique identifier

Method Details

isWorkingArea

public boolean isWorkingArea()

Description copied from interface: CStation

Tells whether this station is a special working area or not. It is not possible drag a child from a working area if it is registered there, or to drop a child onto a working area if it is not registered there.
Working areas must either be registered as root-station (see CControl.addStation(CStation, boolean)) or must be a SingleCDockable.

Specified by:

isWorkingArea in interface CStation<CSplitDockStation>

Overrides:

isWorkingArea in class CGridArea

Returns:

true if this is a working area, false otherwise

getStationLocation

public CLocation getStationLocation()

Description copied from interface: CStation

Gets a location which represents directly CStation.getStation().

Specified by:

getStationLocation in interface CStation<CSplitDockStation>

Overrides:

getStationLocation in class CGridArea

Returns:

the location that will always represent the station

createPerspective

public CWorkingPerspective createPerspective()

Description copied from interface: CStation

Returns a new CStationPerspective that represents this station. This method does not need to set any content of the new perspective. Basically this method just needs to tell the framework what type of CStationPerspective is needed, not what its content is.

Specified by:

createPerspective in interface CStation<CSplitDockStation>

Overrides:

createPerspective in class CGridArea

Returns:

the new, empty perspective

See Also:

• CStation.getTypeId()

deploy

public void deploy(CGrid grid)

Exchanges all the CDockables on this area with the elements of grid. This method also calls CDockable.setWorkingArea(CStation) for each dockable in grid.

Overrides:

deploy in class CGridArea

Parameters:

grid - a grid containing some new Dockables

show

public <F extends SingleCDockable> F show(F dockable)

First adds dockable to the CControl of this CWorkingArea, then makes it visible at a good position. A good position is CLocation.aside() the latest focused Dockable that is child of this station.
This method does not force a focus transfer, clients need to call AbstractCDockable.toFront() if the require a focus switch to dockable.

Parameters:

dockable - the element to show

Returns:

dockable

show

public <F extends MultipleCDockable> F show(F dockable)

First adds dockable to the CControl of this CWorkingArea, then makes it visible at a good position. A good position is CLocation.aside() the latest focused Dockable that is child of this station.
This method does not force a focus transfer, clients need to call AbstractCDockable.toFront() if the require a focus switch to dockable.

Parameters:

dockable - the element to show

Returns:

dockable

add

public <F extends SingleCDockable> F add(F dockable)

Ensures that this is the parent of dockable and adds dockable to the CControl which is associated with this CWorkingArea. If there is no CControl, then the dockable is added nowhere.

Type Parameters:

F - the type of element to add

Parameters:

dockable - the new element

Returns:

dockable

add

public <F extends MultipleCDockable> F add(F dockable)

Ensures that this is the parent of dockable and adds dockable to the CControl which is associated with this CWorkingArea. If there is no CControl, then the dockable is added nowhere.

Type Parameters:

F - the type of element to add

Parameters:

dockable - the new element

Returns:

dockable

getTypeId

public Path getTypeId()

Description copied from interface: CStation

Gets a unique path denoting the type of this station. This path will be given to MissingPerspectiveStrategy.createStation(String, Path) when loading a layout as a CPerspective.

Specified by:

getTypeId in interface CStation<CSplitDockStation>

Overrides:

getTypeId in class CGridArea

Returns:

the type of this station. Paths starting with "dock." are reserved for the framework. A value of null will just be ignored.
