public class AttributeController
extends IconController

This class provides interaction with nodes that represent Ptolemy II attributes. It provides a double click binding and context menu entry to edit the parameters of the node ("Configure") and a command to get documentation. It can have one of two access levels, FULL or PARTIAL. If the access level is FULL, the the context menu also contains a command to rename the node.

Constructor Detail

AttributeController

public AttributeController(GraphController controller)

Create an attribute controller associated with the specified graph controller. The attribute controller is given full access.

Parameters:

controller - The associated graph controller.

AttributeController

public AttributeController(GraphController controller,
                           AttributeController.Access access)

Create an attribute controller associated with the specified graph controller.

Parameters:

controller - The associated graph controller.

access - The access level.

Method Detail

addHotKeys

public void addHotKeys(JGraph jgraph)

Add hot keys to the actions in the given JGraph. It would be better that this method was added higher in the hierarchy. Now most controllers

Overrides:

addHotKeys in class NamedObjController

Parameters:

jgraph - The JGraph to which hot keys are to be added.

renderHighlight

public static void renderHighlight(NamedObj namedObj,
                                   Figure figure)

Render the value of the _highlightColor parameter.

Parameters:

namedObj - The NamedObj that contains the _highlightColor parameter.

figure - the Diva figure that is rendered.

renderDecoratorHighlight

public static void renderDecoratorHighlight(NamedObj namedObj,
                                            Figure figure)

Render the value of the _highlightColor parameter.

Parameters:

namedObj - The NamedObj that contains the _highlightColor parameter.

figure - the Diva figure that is rendered.

setConfiguration

public void setConfiguration(Configuration configuration)

Set the configuration. This is used in derived classes to to open files (such as documentation). The configuration is is important because it keeps track of which files are already open and ensures that there is only one editor operating on the file at any one time.

Overrides:

setConfiguration in class NamedObjController

Parameters:

configuration - The configuration.

_getComponentType

protected java.lang.String _getComponentType()

Get the class label of the component.

Returns:

the class label of the component.

_moveToFirstDescription

protected java.lang.String _moveToFirstDescription()

The text used in the MoveAction.TO_FIRST action menu choice. Derived classes like IOPortController change this.

Returns:

the text.

_moveToLastDescription

protected java.lang.String _moveToLastDescription()

The text used in the MoveAction.TO_LAST action menu choice. Derived classes like IOPortController change this.

Returns:

the text.
