To use this class, just create a PageList of AbstractDialogPage and call setPageList() to set to this dialog. Based on the style, the class will automatically layout those pages correctly and hook up actions to switch based on user selection.

As AbstractDialogPage extends AbstractPage, so you can always use PageListener to decide what to do when page is opened, closing, closed, activated or deactivated.

We automatically create a button panel which have three button - OK, Cancel and Apply. The ButtonPanel listens to ButtonEvent from all the pages. You can simply fireButtonEvent in the page to change the state of those buttons. Or if you want to create your own button panel, just override createButtonPanel() method.

If you choose LIST_STYLE and TREE_STYLE, you can set your own ListCellRenderer and TreeCellRenderer. Just call setListCellRenderer() and setTreeCellRenderer(). The value passed in the renderer is an instance of AbstractDialogPage associated with that list row or tree node.

MultiplePageDialogPane has lazy loading feature. So when you are done setup the page list, you need to call MultiplePageDialogPane.initComponents() to initialize everything. This method will be called automatically if the dialog pane is added to StandardDialog.

 JList list = new JList(listModel);
 list.setCellRenderer(createListCellRenderer());
 return list;
 

 UIManager.put("Tree.hash", Color.white);
 return new JTree(root);
