Note: as of the Java 2 platform v1.3, it is recommended that developers call Component.AccessibleAWTComponent.getAccessibleIndexInParent() instead of using this method.

Note: This method provides the same functionality as getWindowAncestor.
Parameters:
  c - Component to get Window ancestorof.

Note: as of the Java 2 platform v1.3, it is recommended that developers call Component.AccessibleAWTComponent.getAccessibleIndexInParent() instead of using this method.
Parameters:
  i - zero-based index of child the nth Accessible child of the object

Note: as of the Java 2 platform v1.3, it is recommended that developers call Component.AccessibleAWTComponent.getAccessibleIndexInParent() instead of using this method. the number of accessible children in the object.

Note: as of the Java 2 platform v1.3, it is recommended that developers call Component.AccessibleAWTComponent.getAccessibleIndexInParent() instead of using this method. -1 of this object does not have an accessible parent.Otherwise, the index of the child in its accessible parent.

Note: as of the Java 2 platform v1.3, it is recommended that developers call Component.AccessibleAWTComponent.getAccessibleIndexInParent() instead of using this method. an instance of AccessibleStateSet containing the current stateset of the object

Additional documentation and examples for this method can be found in How to Use Threads, in The Java Tutorial.

As of 1.3 this method is just a cover for java.awt.EventQueue.invokeAndWait().
exception:
  InterruptedException - if we're interrupted while waiting forthe event dispatching thread to finish excecutingdoRun.run()
exception:
  InvocationTargetException - if an exception is thrownwhile running doRun

As of 1.3 this method is just a cover for java.awt.EventQueue.invokeLater().

Unlike the rest of Swing, this method can be invoked from any thread.

As of 1.3 this method is just a cover for java.awt.EventQueue.isDispatchThread(). true if the current thread is an AWT event dispatching thread

1. If the action was registered via registerKeyboardAction, then the command string passed in ( null will be used if null was passed in).
2. Action value with name Action.ACTION_COMMAND_KEY, unless null .
3. String value of the KeyEvent, unless getKeyChar returns KeyEvent.CHAR_UNDEFINED..

This method makes use of CellRendererPane to handle the actual painting, and is only recommended if you use one component for rendering. If you make use of multiple components to handle the rendering, as JTable does, use CellRendererPane directly. Otherwise, as described below, you could end up with a CellRendererPane per Component.

If c's parent is not a CellRendererPane, a new CellRendererPane is created, c is added to it, and the CellRendererPane is added to p. If c's parent is a CellRendererPane and the CellRendererPanes parent is not p, it is added to p.

The component should either descend from JComponent or be another kind of lightweight component. A lightweight component is one whose "lightweight" property (returned by the Component isLightweight method) is true. If the Component is not lightweight, bad things map happen: crashes, exceptions, painting problems...
Parameters:
  g - the Graphics object to draw on
Parameters:
  c - the Component to draw
Parameters:
  p - the intermediate Container
Parameters:
  x - an int specifying the left side of the area draw in, in pixels,measured from the left edge of the graphics context
Parameters:
  y - an int specifying the top of the area to draw in, in pixelsmeasured down from the top edge of the graphics context
Parameters:
  w - an int specifying the width of the area draw in, in pixels
Parameters:
  h - an int specifying the height of the area draw in, in pixels

Note: This method provides the same functionality as getWindowAncestor.
Parameters:
  c - Component to get Window ancestorof. the first Window ancestor of c, or null if c is not contained inside aWindow.
