| Method Summary |
|
| public boolean | add(Object o)
Add a child to this BeanContext. |
| public boolean | addAll(Collection c)
Not supported. |
| public void | addBeanContextMembershipListener(BeanContextMembershipListener bcml)
Adds the specified BeanContextMembershipListener
to receive BeanContextMembershipEvents from
this BeanContext whenever it adds
or removes a child Component(s). |
| public boolean | avoidingGui()
Determines whether this bean is avoiding using a GUI.
true if the bean is currently avoiding use of the Gui.e.g. |
| public void | clear()
Not supported. |
| public boolean | contains(Object o)
Returns true if this BeanContext contains the specified child.
Parameters:
o - element whose presence in this BeanContext is to be tested. |
| public boolean | containsAll(Collection c)
Returns true if this BeanContext contains all of the children
in the specified collection.
Parameters:
c - collection to be checked for containment in this collection. |
| public void | dontUseGui()
This method instructs the bean that it should not use the Gui. |
| public URL | getResource(String name, BeanContextChild bcc)
Analagous to java.lang.ClassLoader.getResource(), this
method allows a BeanContext implementation to interpose
behavior between the child Component
and underlying ClassLoader. |
| public InputStream | getResourceAsStream(String name, BeanContextChild bcc)
Analagous to java.lang.ClassLoader.getResourceAsStream(),
this method allows a BeanContext implementation
to interpose behavior between the child Component
and underlying ClassLoader. |
| protected void | initialize()
Init this classes data structures. |
| public Object | instantiateChild(String beanName)
Instantiate the javaBean named as a
child of this BeanContext. |
| public boolean | isDesignTime()
A value of true denotes that JavaBeans should behave in design time
mode, a value of false denotes runtime behavior. |
| public boolean | isEmpty()
Returns true if this BeanContext has no children. |
| public Iterator | iterator()
Returns an iterator over the elements in this collection. |
| public boolean | needsGui()
Determines whether this bean needs a GUI. |
| public void | okToUseGui()
This method instructs the bean that it is OK to use the Gui. |
| public void | propertyChange(PropertyChangeEvent evt)
This method gets called when a bound property is changed. |
| final public void | readChildren(ObjectInputStream in)
This public api is necessary to allow a bean context with a peer to deserialize its children. |
| public boolean | remove(Object o)
Remove the specified child from this BeanContext. |
| public boolean | removeAll(Collection c)
Not supported. |
| public void | removeBeanContextMembershipListener(BeanContextMembershipListener bcml)
Removes the specified BeanContextMembershipListener
so that it no longer receives BeanContextMembershipEvents
when the child Component(s) are added or removed. |
| public boolean | retainAll(Collection c)
Not supported. |
| public void | setDesignTime(boolean designTime)
Sets the "value" of the "designTime" property. |
| public int | size()
Returns the number of children in this BeanContext. |
| public Object[] | toArray()
Returns an array containing all of the children in this BeanContext.
The returned array will be "safe" in that no references to it are
maintained by this collection. |
| public Object[] | toArray(Object[] a)
Returns an array containing all of the children of this BeanContext;
the runtime type of the returned array is that of the specified array.
Parameters:
a - the array into which the elements of this collection are to bestored, if it is big enough; otherwise, a new array of the sameruntime type is allocated for this purpose. |
| public void | vetoableChange(PropertyChangeEvent evt)
This method gets called when a constrained property is changed. |
| final public void | writeChildren(ObjectOutputStream oos)
Necessary for the case of this bean context having a peer. |
