public class LookAndFeelFactory
extends java.lang.Object
implements ProductNames
```
JIDE Software created many new components that need their own ComponentUI classes and additional UIDefaults in UIDefaults table. LookAndFeelFactory can take the UIDefaults from any existing look and feel and add the extra UIDefaults JIDE components need.
Before using any JIDE components, please make you call one of the two LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension(...) methods. Basically, you set L&F using UIManager first just like before, then call installJideExtension. See code below for an example.
```
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(WindowsLookAndFeel.class.getName()); // you need to catch the exceptions on this call.
 LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension();
 
```
LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension() method will check what kind of L&F you set and what operating system you are on and decide which style of JIDE extension it will install. Here is the rule.
- OS: Windows Vista or Windows 7, L&F: Windows L&F => OFFICE2007_STYLE
- OS: Windows XP with XP theme on, L&F: Windows L&F => OFFICE2003_STYLE
- OS: any Windows, L&F: Windows L&F => VSNET_STYLE
- OS: Linux, L&F: any L&F based on Metal L&F => VSNET_STYLE
- OS: Mac OS X, L&F: Aqua L&F => AQUA_STYLE
- OS: any OS, L&F: Quaqua L&F => AQUA_STYLE
- Otherwise => VSNET_STYLE
There is also another installJideExtension which takes an int style parameter. You can pass in EXTENSION_STYLE_VSNET, EXTENSION_STYLE_ECLIPSE, EXTENSION_STYLE_ECLIPSE3X, EXTENSION_STYLE_OFFICE2003, EXTENSION_STYLE_OFFICE2007, or EXTENSION_STYLE_XERTO, EXTENSION_STYLE_OFFICE2003_WITHOUT_MENU, EXTENSION_STYLE_OFFICE2007_WITHOUT_MENU, EXTENSION_STYLE_ECLIPSE_WITHOUT_MENU, EXTENSION_STYLE_ECLIPSE3X_WITHOUT_MENU. In the other word, you will make the choice of style instead of letting LookAndFeelFactory to decide one for you. Please note, there is no constant defined for AQUA_STYLE. The only way to use it is when you are using Aqua L&F or Quaqua L&F and you call installJideExtension() method, the one without parameter.
Another way is to call installDefaultLookAndFeelAndExtension() which will set the default L&Fs based on the OS and install JIDE extension.
LookAndFeelFactory supports a number of known L&Fs. Some are L&Fs in the JDK such as Metal, Windows, Aqua (on Apple JDK only), GTK. We also support some 3rd party L&Fs such as Plastic XP or Plastic 3D, Tonic, A03, Synthetica etc.
If you are using a 3rd party L&F we are not officially supporting, you might need to customize it. Here are two classes you can use - LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsInitializer and LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsCustomizer.
Let's start with UIDefaultsCustomizer. No matter what unknown L&F you are trying to use, LookAndFeelFactory's installJideExtension() will try to install the UIDefaults that JIDE components required. Hopefully JIDE will run on your L&F without any exception. But most likely, it won't look very good. That's why you need LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsCustomizer to customize the UIDefaults.
Most likely, you will not need to use LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsInitializer. The only exception is Synth L&F and any L&Fs based on it. The reason is we calculate all colors we will use in JIDE components from existing well-known UIDefaults. For example, we will use UIManagerLookup.getColor("activeCaption") to calculate a color that we can use in dockable frame's title pane. We will use UIManagerLookup.getColor("control") to calculate a color that we can use as background of JIDE component. Most L&Fs will fill those UIDefaults. However in Synth L&F, those UIDefaults may or may not have a valid value. You will end up with NPE later in the code when you call installJideExtension. In this case, you can add those extra UIDefaults in UIDefaultsInitializer. We will call it before installJideExtension is called so that those UIDefaults are there ready for us to use. This is how added support to GTK L&F and Synthetica L&F.
After you create your own UIDefaultsCustomizer or Initializer, you can call addUIDefaultsCustomizer(com.jidesoft.plaf.LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsCustomizer) or addUIDefaultsInitializer(com.jidesoft.plaf.LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsInitializer) which will make the customizer or the initializer triggered all the times. If you only want it to be used for a certain L&F, you should use registerDefaultCustomizer(String, String) or registerDefaultInitializer(String, String).
By default, we also use UIDefaultsCustomizer and UIDefaultsInitializer internally to provide support for non-standard L&Fs. However we look into the classes under "com.jidesoft.plaf" package for default customizers and initializers. For example, for PlasticXPLookAndFeel, the corresponding customizer is "oom.jidesoft.plaf.plasticxp.PlasticXPCustomizer". We basically take the L&F name "PlasticXP", append it after "com.jidesoft.plaf" using lower case to get package name, take the L&F name, append with "Customizer" to get the class name. We will look at PlasticXPLookAndFeel's super class which is PlasticLookAndFeel. The customizer corresponding to PlasticLookAndFeel is "com.jidesoft.plaf.plastic.PlasticCustomizer". This searching process continues till we find all super classes of a L&F. Then we start from its top-most super class and call the customizers one by one, if it is there. The src-plaf.jar or src-plaf-jdk7.jar contain some of these customizers. You could use this naming pattern to create the customizers so that you don't need to register them explicitly.
installJideExtension() method will only add the additional UIDefaults to current ClassLoader. If you have several class loaders in your system, you probably should tell the UIManager to use the class loader that called installJideExtension. Otherwise, you might some unexpected errors. Here is how to specify the class loaders.
```
 UIManager.put("ClassLoader", currentClass.getClassLoader()); // currentClass is the class where the code is.
 LookAndFeelFactory.installDefaultLookAndFeelAndExtension(); // or installJideExtension()
 
```

    A style that you can use with installJideExtension(int) method. This style is the same as VSNET_STYLE except it doesn't have menu related UIDefaults. You can only use this style if you didn't use any component from JIDE Action Framework.
    
    See Also:
    
    EXTENSION_STYLE_VSNET, Constant Field Values
  - EXTENSION_STYLE_VSNET
```
public static final int EXTENSION_STYLE_VSNET
```
    A style that you can use with installJideExtension(int) method. This style mimics the visual style of Microsoft Visual Studio .NET for the toolbars, menus and dockable windows.
    Vsnet style is a very simple style with no gradient. Although it works on almost all L&Fs in any operating systems, it looks the best on Windows 2000 or 98, or on Windows XP when XP theme is not on. If XP theme is on, we suggest you use Office2003 style or Xerto style. Since the style is so simple, it works with a lot of the 3rd party L&F such as Tonic, Pgs, Alloy etc without causing too much noise. That's why this is also the default style for any L&Fs we don't recognize when you call installJideExtension(), the one with out style parameter. If you would like another style to be used as the default style, you can call setDefaultStyle(int) method.
    Here is the code to set to Windows L&F with Vsnet style extension.
```
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(WindowsLookAndFeel.class.getName()); // you need to catch the
 exceptions on this call.
 LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension(LookAndFeelFactory.EXTENSION_STYLE_VSNET);
 
```
    There is a special system property "shading theme" you can use. If you turn it on using the code below, you will see a gradient on dockable frame's title pane and rounded corner and gradient on the tabs of JideTabbedPane. So if the L&F you are using uses gradient, you can set this property to true to match with your L&F. For example, if you use Plastic3D L&F, turning this property on will look better. System.setProperty("shadingtheme", "true");

  - EXTENSION_STYLE_ECLIPSE
```
public static final int EXTENSION_STYLE_ECLIPSE
```
    A style that you can use with installJideExtension(int) method. This style mimics the visual style of Eclipse 2.x for the toolbars, menus and dockable windows.
    Eclipse style works for almost all L&Fs and on any operating systems, although it looks the best on Windows. For any other operating systems we suggest you to use EXTENSION_STYLE_XERTO or EXTENSION_STYLE_VSNET.
    Here is the code to set to any L&F with Eclipse style extension.
```
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(AnyLookAndFeel.class.getName()); // you need to catch the
 exceptions
 on this call.
 LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension(LookAndFeelFactory.EXTENSION_STYLE_ECLIPSE);

  - EXTENSION_STYLE_OFFICE2003
```
public static final int EXTENSION_STYLE_OFFICE2003
```
    A style that you can use with installJideExtension(int) method. This style mimics the visual style of Microsoft Office2003 for the toolbars, menus and dockable windows.
    Office2003 style looks great on Windows XP when Windows or Windows XP L&F from Sun JDK is used. It replicated the exact same style as Microsoft Office 2003, to give your end user a familiar visual style.
    Here is the code to set to Windows L&F with Office2003 style extension.
```
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(WindowsLookAndFeel.class.getName()); // you need to catch the
 exceptions on this call.
 LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension(LookAndFeelFactory.EXTENSION_STYLE_OFFICE2003);
 
```
    It works either on any other Windows such asWindows 2000, Windows 98 etc. If you are on Windows XP, Office2003 style will change theme based on the theme setting in Windows Display Property. But if you are not on XP, Office2003 style will use the default gray theme only. You can force to change it using Office2003Painter.setColorName(String) method, but it won't look good as other non-JIDE components won't have the matching theme.
    Office2003 style doesn't work on any operating systems other than Windows mainly because the design of Office2003 style is so centric to Windows that it doesn't look good on other operating systems.

```
public static final int EXTENSION_STYLE_XERTO
```
    A style that you can use with installJideExtension(int) method. This style is created by Xerto (http://www.xerto.com) which is used in their Imagery product.
    Xerto style looks great on Windows XP when Windows XP L&F from Sun JDK is used.
    Here is the code to set to Windows L&F with Xerto style extension.
```
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(WindowsLookAndFeel.class.getName()); // you need to catch the
 exceptions on this call.
 LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension(LookAndFeelFactory.EXTENSION_STYLE_XERTO);
 
```
    Although it looks the best on Windows, Xerto style also supports Linux or Solaris if you use any L&Fs based on Metal L&F or Synth L&F. For example, we recommend you to use Xerto style as default if you use SyntheticaL&F, a L&F based on Synth. To use it, you basically replace WindowsLookAndFeel to the L&F you want to use in setLookAndFeel line above.

```
public static final int EXTENSION_STYLE_ECLIPSE3X
```
    A style that you can use with installJideExtension(int) method. This style mimics the visual style of Eclipse 3.x for the toolbars, menus and dockable windows.
    Eclipse 3x style works for almost all L&Fs and on any operating systems, although it looks the best on Windows. For any other OS's we suggest you to use EXTENSION_STYLE_XERTO or EXTENSION_STYLE_VSNET.
```
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(AnyLookAndFeel.class.getName()); // you need to catch the

    A style that you can use with installJideExtension(int) method. This style is the same as XERTO_STYLE except it doesn't have menu related UIDefaults. You can only use this style if you didn't use any component from JIDE Action Framework. Please note, we only use menu extension for Xerto style when the underlying L&F is Windows L&F. If you are using L&F such as Metal or other 3rd party L&F based on Metal, XERTO_STYLE_WITHOUT_MENU will be used even you use XERTO_STYLE when calling to installJideExtension().

    Office2007 style looks great on Windows Vista when Windows L&F from Sun JDK is used. It replicated the exact same style as Microsoft Office 2007, to give your end user a familiar visual style.
    Here is the code to set to Windows L&F with Office2007 style extension.
```
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(WindowsLookAndFeel.class.getName()); // you need to catch the
 exceptions on this call.
 LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension(LookAndFeelFactory.EXTENSION_STYLE_OFFICE2007);
 
```
    Office2007 style doesn't work on any operating systems other than Windows mainly because the design of Office2003 style is so centric to Windows that it doesn't look good on other operating systems.
    Because we use some painting code that is only available in JDK6, Office 2007 style only runs if you are using JDK6 and above.

  - isLnfInstalled
```
public static boolean isLnfInstalled(java.lang.String lnfName)
```
    Returns whether or not the L&F is in classpath. This method will check for pre-installed L&Fs using setLnfInstalled(String, boolean). If the L&F is not pre-installed, we will try to use class loader to load the class to determine if the L&F is installed. If you don't want us to load the class, you can call setLoadLookAndFeelClass(boolean) false. If so, we will solely depend on the setLnfInstalled method to determine if the L&F is installed.
    
    Parameters:
    
    lnfName - the L&F name.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the L&F is in classpath, false otherwise

    Tells the LookAndFeelFactory whether a L&F is installed. We will try to instantiate the class when isLnfInstalled(String) is called to determine if the class is in the class path. However you can call this method to tell if the L&F is available without us instantiating the class.
    
    Parameters:
    
    lnfName - the L&F name.
    
    installed - true or false.

    Install the default L&F. In this method, we will look at system property "swing.defaultlaf" first. If the value is set and it's not an instance of Synth L&F, we will use it. Otherwise, we will use Metal L&F is OS is Linux or UNIX and use UIManager.getSystemLookAndFeelClassName() for other OS. In addition, we will add JIDE extension to it.
  - installDefaultLookAndFeel

    an array of UIDefaults customizers.
  - addUIDefaultsCustomizer
```
public static void addUIDefaultsCustomizer(LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsCustomizer uiDefaultsCustomizer)
```
    Adds your own UIDefaults customizer. You need to add it before installJideExtension() is called but the actual customize() code will be called after installJideExtension() is called. For example, we use "JideButton.font" as the UIDefault for the JideButton font. If you want to use another font, you can do LookAndFeelFactory.addUIDefaultsCustomizer(new LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsCustomizer() { public void customize(UIDefaults defaults) { defaults.put("JideButton.font", whateverFont); } }); LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension();
    Parameters:
    
    uiDefaultsCustomizer - the UIDefaultsCustomizer
  - removeUIDefaultsCustomizer
```
public static void removeUIDefaultsCustomizer(LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsCustomizer uiDefaultsCustomizer)
```
    Removes an existing UIDefaults customizer you added before.
    
    Parameters:
    
    uiDefaultsCustomizer - the UIDefaultsCustomizer
  - getUIDefaultsInitializers
```
public static LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsInitializer[] getUIDefaultsInitializers()
```
    Gets all UIDefaults initializers.
    
    Returns:
    
    an array of UIDefaults initializers.
  - addUIDefaultsInitializer
```
public static void addUIDefaultsInitializer(LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsInitializer uiDefaultsInitializer)
```
    Adds your own UIDefaults initializer. This initializer will be called before installJideExtension() is called.
    Here is how you use it. For example, we use the color of UIDefault "activeCaption" to get the active title color which we will use for active title bar color in JIDE components. If the L&F you are using doesn't set this UIDefault, we might throw NPE later in the code. To avoid this, you call
```
 LookAndFeelFactory.addUIDefaultsInitializer(new LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsInitializer() {
     public void initialize(UIDefaults defaults) {
         defaults.put("activeCaption", whateverColor);
     }
 });
 UIManager.setLookAndFeel(...); // set whatever L&F
 LookAndFeelFactory.installJideExtension(); // install the UIDefaults needed by the JIDE
 components
 
```
    Parameters:
    
    uiDefaultsInitializer - the UIDefaultsInitializer.
  - removeUIDefaultsInitializer
```
public static void removeUIDefaultsInitializer(LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsInitializer uiDefaultsInitializer)
```
    Removes an existing UIDefaults initializer you added before.
    
    Parameters:
    
    uiDefaultsInitializer - the UIDefaultsInitializer
  - verifyDefaults
```
public static void verifyDefaults(javax.swing.UIDefaults table,
                                  java.lang.Object[] keyValueList)
```
  - putDefaults
```
public static void putDefaults(javax.swing.UIDefaults table,
                               java.lang.Object[] keyValueArray)
```
    Puts a list of UIDefault to the UIDefaults table. The keyValueList is an array with a key and value in pair. If the value is null, this method will remove the key from the table. If the table already has a value for the key, the new value will be ignored. This is the difference from putDefaults(javax.swing.UIDefaults, Object[]) method. You should use this method in LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsInitializer so that it fills in the UIDefault value only when it is missing.
    
    Parameters:
    
    table - the ui defaults table
    
    keyValueArray - the key value array. It is in the format of a key followed by a value.
  - overwriteDefaults
```
public static void overwriteDefaults(javax.swing.UIDefaults table,
                                     java.lang.Object[] keyValueArray)
```
    Puts a list of UIDefault to the UIDefaults table. The keyValueList is an array with a key and value in pair. If the value is null, this method will remove the key from the table. Otherwise, it will put the new value in even if the table already has a value for the key. This is the difference from putDefaults(javax.swing.UIDefaults, Object[]) method. You should use this method in LookAndFeelFactory.UIDefaultsCustomizer because you always want to override the existing value using the new value.
    
    Parameters:
    
    table - the ui defaults table
    
    keyValueArray - the key value array. It is in the format of a key followed by a value.
  - getProductsUsed
```

  - isWindowsLookAndFeel
```
public static boolean isWindowsLookAndFeel(javax.swing.LookAndFeel lnf)
```
    As of Java 10, com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsLookAndFeel is no longer available on macOS thus "instanceof WindowsLookAndFeel" directives will result in a NoClassDefFoundError during runtime. This method was introduced to avoid this exception.
    
    Parameters:
    
    lnf -
    
    Returns:
    
    true if it is a WindowsLookAndFeel.
  - isWindowsClassicLookAndFeel
```
public static boolean isWindowsClassicLookAndFeel(javax.swing.LookAndFeel lnf)

    As of Java 10, com.sun.java.swing.plaf.windows.WindowsClassicLookAndFeel is no longer available on macOS thus "instanceof WindowsClassicLookAndFeel" directives will result in a NoClassDefFoundError during runtime. This method was introduced to avoid this exception.
    
    Parameters:
    
    lnf -
    
    Returns:
    
    true if it is a WindowsClassicLookAndFeel.
  - setProductsUsed
```
public static void setProductsUsed(int productsUsed)
```
    Sets the products you will use. This is needed so that LookAndFeelFactory knows what UIDefault to initialize. For example, if you use only JIDE Docking Framework and JIDE Grids, you should call setProductUsed(ProductNames.PRODUCT_DOCK | ProductNames.PRODUCT_GRIDS) so that we don't initialize UIDefaults needed by any other products. If you use this class as part of JIDE Common Layer open source project, you should call setProductUsed(ProductNames.PRODUCT_COMMON). If you want to use all JIDE products, you should call setProductUsed(ProductNames.PRODUCT_ALL)
    
    Parameters:
    
    productsUsed - a bit-wise OR of product values defined in ProductNames.
  - isCurrentLnfDecorated
```
public static boolean isCurrentLnfDecorated()
```
    Checks if the current L&F uses decorated frames.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if the current L&F uses decorated frames. Otherwise false.
  - isLoadLookAndFeelClass
```
public static boolean isLoadLookAndFeelClass()
```
    Gets the flag indicating if JIDE will try to load the LnF class when isLnfInstalled(String) is invoked.
    
    Returns:
    
    true if JIDE will try to load the LnF class. Otherwise false
    
    Since:
    
    3.2.0
    
    See Also:
    
    setLoadLookAndFeelClass(boolean)
  - setLoadLookAndFeelClass
```
public static void setLoadLookAndFeelClass(boolean loadLookAndFeelClass)
```
    Sets the flag indicating if JIDE will try to load the L&F class when isLnfInstalled(String) is invoked.
    By default, this flag is true. However, it may cause unexpected class loading, which may be a performance issue for web start applications. If this is a concern to your application, please try to set this flag to false and invoke setLnfInstalled(String, boolean) to make isLnfInstalled(String) returns correct value as you wish.
    
    Parameters:
    
    loadLookAndFeelClass - the flag
    
    Since:
    
    3.2.0

  - main
