Class CompositeTabDockFactory

java.lang.Object
  com.javadocking.dock.factory.CompositeTabDockFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

CompositeDockFactory, DockFactory

public class CompositeTabDockFactory
extends java.lang.Object
implements CompositeDockFactory

This dock factory tries to create a dock for a dockable with the child dock factory. When no child dock could be created and the dockable is a composite, a CompositeTabDock is created. Only when the dockable cannot be added, it delegates the creation of the dock to the alternative dock factory.

public CompositeTabDockFactory()

Method Detail

createDock

public Dock createDock(Dockable dockable,
                       int dockingMode)

Description copied from interface: DockFactory

Creates a dock for the given dockable.

Specified by:

createDock in interface DockFactory

Parameters:

dockable - The dockable for which the dock is created.

dockingMode - The docking mode that is used for docking the dockable. This integer should be a constant defined by DockingMode.

Returns:

A dock for the given dockable.

getDockPreferredSize

public java.awt.Dimension getDockPreferredSize(Dockable dockable,
                                               int dockingMode)

Description copied from interface: DockFactory

Gets the preferred size for the dock that will be created by this factory.

Specified by:

getDockPreferredSize in interface DockFactory

Parameters:

dockable - The dockable for which the dock is created.

dockingMode - The docking mode that is used for docking the dockable. This integer should be a constant defined by DockingMode.

Returns:

A dock for the given dockable.

saveProperties

public void saveProperties(java.lang.String prefix,
                           java.util.Properties properties)

Description copied from interface: DockFactory

Saves the properties of this dock factory in the given properties object. The property names for this dock factory should start with the given prefix.

Specified by:

saveProperties in interface DockFactory

Parameters:

prefix - The prefix for the property names.

properties - The properties object to which the properties should be added.

loadProperties

public void loadProperties(java.lang.String prefix,
                           java.util.Properties properties)

Description copied from interface: DockFactory

Sets the properties for this dock factory. The properties can be found in the given properties object and the property names for this dock factory start with the given prefix.

Specified by:

loadProperties in interface DockFactory

Parameters:

prefix - The prefix of the names of the properties that have been intended for this dock factory.

properties - The properties object that contains the properties for this dock factory. It can contain also properties for other objects, but they will have another prefix.

getAlternativeDockFactory

public DockFactory getAlternativeDockFactory()

Gets the alternative dock factory. When the dockable cannot be added to a split dock, the creation of the dock is delegated to this alternative dock factory.

Returns:

The alternative dock factory.

setAlternativeDockFactory

public void setAlternativeDockFactory(DockFactory alternativeDockFactory)

Sets the alternative dock factory. When the dockable cannot be added to a split dock, the creation of the dock is delegated to this alternative dock factory.

Parameters:

alternativeDockFactory - The alternative dock factory. Should not be null.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - When the alternative dock factory is null.

getChildDockFactory

public DockFactory getChildDockFactory()

Gets the leaf child dock factory. This is the factory that is used in the constructor of the SplitDock.SplitDock(DockFactory, CompositeDockFactory) for creating the leaf docks of the split dock.

Specified by:

getChildDockFactory in interface CompositeDockFactory

Returns:

The leaf child dock factory.

setChildDockFactory

public void setChildDockFactory(DockFactory leafChildDockFactory)

Sets the leaf child dock factory. This is the factory that is used in the constructor of the SplitDock.SplitDock(DockFactory, CompositeDockFactory) for creating the leaf docks of the split dock.

Specified by:

setChildDockFactory in interface CompositeDockFactory

Parameters:

leafChildDockFactory - The leaf child dock factory. Should not be null.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - When the alternative dock factory is null.
