Interface ViewListener

All Superinterfaces:

java.util.EventListener

All Known Implementing Classes:

ViewAdapter

public interface ViewListener
extends java.util.EventListener

A listener interface for receiving events on views. A _view_ is any JComponent that contains a view into a Document. Typically, views might be opened, closed, iconified, and so on. Although there are various listeners in AWT and Swing that capture these events, they are all specific to certain widgets, whereas the ViewListener interface abstracts from specific widgets.

This interface is partly based on the Swing InternalFrameListener interface.

Method Detail

viewClosed

void viewClosed(ViewEvent e)

Invoked when the view has been closed.

viewClosing

void viewClosing(ViewEvent e)

Invoked when the view is about to be closed

viewDeselected

void viewDeselected(ViewEvent e)

Invoked when the view has been de-selected. Typically, this happens when the view no longer is the front-most view or when it loses the focus.

viewHidden

void viewHidden(ViewEvent e)

Invoked when the view has been hidden. This might happen because another view is placed over the top of it, or because an internal frame is iconified.

viewMoved

void viewMoved(ViewEvent e)

Invoked when the view moves

viewResized

void viewResized(ViewEvent e)

Invoked when the view was resized

viewSelected

void viewSelected(ViewEvent e)

Invoked when the view has been selected. Typically, this happens when the view becomes the front-most view or when it gets the focus.

viewShown

void viewShown(ViewEvent e)

Invoked when the view has been shown. This might happen because an internal frame is deiconified, for example.
