Class CompositeView

java.lang.Object
  javax.swing.text.View
      javax.swing.text.CompositeView

All Implemented Interfaces:: SwingConstants

Direct Known Subclasses:: BasicTextAreaUI.PlainParagraph.LogicalView, BoxView, FlowView.LogicalView, JEditorPane.PlainEditorKit.PlainParagraph.LogicalView

public abstract class CompositeView
extends View

CompositeView is an abstract View implementation which manages one or more child views. (Note that CompositeView is intended for managing relatively small numbers of child views.) CompositeView is intended to be used as a starting point for View implementations, such as BoxView, that will contain child Views. Subclasses that wish to manage the collection of child Views should use the replace(int, int, javax.swing.text.View[]) method. As View invokes replace during DocumentListener notification, you normally won't need to directly invoke replace.

While CompositeView does not impose a layout policy on its child Views, it does allow for inseting the child Views it will contain. The insets can be set by either setInsets(short, short, short, short) or setParagraphInsets(javax.swing.text.AttributeSet).

In addition to the abstract methods of View, subclasses of CompositeView will need to override:

isBefore(int, int, java.awt.Rectangle) - Used to test if a given View location is before the visual space of the CompositeView.
isAfter(int, int, java.awt.Rectangle) - Used to test if a given View location is after the visual space of the CompositeView.
getViewAtPoint(int, int, java.awt.Rectangle) - Returns the view at a given visual location.
childAllocation(int, java.awt.Rectangle) - Returns the bounds of a particular child View. getChildAllocation will invoke childAllocation after offseting the bounds by the Insets of the CompositeView.

Constructor Detail

CompositeView

public CompositeView(Element elem)

Constructs a CompositeView for the given element.
Parameters:: elem - the element this view is responsible for

Method Detail

loadChildren

protected void loadChildren(ViewFactory f)

Loads all of the children to initialize the view. This is called by the setParent(javax.swing.text.View) method. Subclasses can reimplement this to initialize their child views in a different manner. The default implementation creates a child view for each child element.

Parameters:: f - the view factory
See Also:: setParent(javax.swing.text.View)

setParent

public void setParent(View parent)

Sets the parent of the view. This is reimplemented to provide the superclass behavior as well as calling the loadChildren method if this view does not already have children. The children should not be loaded in the constructor because the act of setting the parent may cause them to try to search up the hierarchy (to get the hosting Container for example). If this view has children (the view is being moved from one place in the view hierarchy to another), the loadChildren method will not be called.

Overrides:: setParent in class View

Parameters:: parent - the parent of the view, null if none

getViewCount

public int getViewCount()

Returns the number of child views of this view.

Overrides:: getViewCount in class View

Returns:: the number of views >= 0
See Also:: getView(int)

getView

public View getView(int n)

Returns the n-th view in this container.

Overrides:: getView in class View

Parameters:: n - the number of the desired view, >= 0 && < getViewCount()
Returns:: the view at index n

replace

public void replace(int offset,
                    int length,
                    View[] views)

Replaces child views. If there are no views to remove this acts as an insert. If there are no views to add this acts as a remove. Views being removed will have the parent set to null, and the internal reference to them removed so that they may be garbage collected.

Overrides:: replace in class View

Parameters:: offset - the starting index into the child views to insert the new views; >= 0 and <= getViewCount; length - the number of existing child views to remove; this should be a value >= 0 and <= (getViewCount() - offset); views - the child views to add; this value can be null to indicate no children are being added (useful to remove)

getChildAllocation

public Shape getChildAllocation(int index,
                                Shape a)

Fetches the allocation for the given child view to render into. This enables finding out where various views are located.

Overrides:: getChildAllocation in class View

Parameters:: index - the index of the child, >= 0 && < getViewCount(); a - the allocation to this view
Returns:: the allocation to the child

modelToView

public Shape modelToView(int pos,
                         Shape a,
                         Position.Bias b)
                  throws BadLocationException

Provides a mapping from the document model coordinate space to the coordinate space of the view mapped to it.

Specified by:: modelToView in class View

Parameters:: pos - the position to convert >= 0; a - the allocated region to render into; b - a bias value of either Position.Bias.Forward or Position.Bias.Backward
Returns:: the bounding box of the given position
Throws:: BadLocationException - if the given position does not represent a valid location in the associated document
See Also:: View.modelToView(int, java.awt.Shape, javax.swing.text.Position.Bias)

modelToView

public Shape modelToView(int p0,
                         Position.Bias b0,
                         int p1,
                         Position.Bias b1,
                         Shape a)
                  throws BadLocationException

Provides a mapping from the document model coordinate space to the coordinate space of the view mapped to it.

Overrides:: modelToView in class View

Parameters:: p0 - the position to convert >= 0; b0 - the bias toward the previous character or the next character represented by p0, in case the position is a boundary of two views; either Position.Bias.Forward or Position.Bias.Backward; p1 - the position to convert >= 0; b1 - the bias toward the previous character or the next character represented by p1, in case the position is a boundary of two views; a - the allocated region to render into
Returns:: the bounding box of the given position is returned
Throws:: BadLocationException - if the given position does not represent a valid location in the associated document; IllegalArgumentException - for an invalid bias argument

viewToModel

public int viewToModel(float x,
                       float y,
                       Shape a,
                       Position.Bias[] bias)

Provides a mapping from the view coordinate space to the logical coordinate space of the model.

Specified by:: viewToModel in class View

Parameters:: x - x coordinate of the view location to convert >= 0; y - y coordinate of the view location to convert >= 0; a - the allocated region to render into; bias - either Position.Bias.Forward or Position.Bias.Backward
Returns:: the location within the model that best represents the given point in the view >= 0
See Also:: View.viewToModel(float, float, java.awt.Shape, javax.swing.text.Position.Bias[])

getNextVisualPositionFrom

public int getNextVisualPositionFrom(int pos,
                                     Position.Bias b,
                                     Shape a,

getViewIndex

public int getViewIndex(int pos,
                        Position.Bias b)

Returns the child view index representing the given position in the model. This is implemented to call the getViewIndexByPosition method for backward compatibility.

Parameters:: pos - the position >= 0
Returns:: index of the view representing the given position, or -1 if no view represents that position

isBefore

protected abstract boolean isBefore(int x,

Fetches the child view at the given coordinates.

Parameters:: x - the X coordinate >= 0; y - the Y coordinate >= 0; alloc - the parent's allocation on entry, which should be changed to the child's allocation on exit
Returns:: the child view

childAllocation

protected abstract void childAllocation(int index,
                                        Rectangle a)

Returns the allocation for a given child.

Parameters:: index - the index of the child, >= 0 && < getViewCount(); a - the allocation to the interior of the box on entry, and the allocation of the child view at the index on exit.

getViewAtPosition

protected View getViewAtPosition(int pos,
                                 Rectangle a)

Parameters:: pos - the position >= 0
Returns:: index of the view representing the given position, or -1 if no view represents that position

getInsideAllocation

protected Rectangle getInsideAllocation(Shape a)

Translates the immutable allocation given to the view to a mutable allocation that represents the interior allocation (i.e. the bounds of the given allocation with the top, left, bottom, and right insets removed. It is expected that the returned value would be further mutated to represent an allocation to a child view. This is implemented to reuse an instance variable so it avoids creating excessive Rectangles. Typically the result of calling this method would be fed to the childAllocation method.

Parameters:: a - the allocation given to the view
Returns:: the allocation that represents the inside of the view after the margins have all been removed; if the given allocation was null, the return value is null

                                         throws BadLocationException

Returns the next visual position for the cursor, in either the east or west direction.

Parameters:

pos - the position to convert >= 0

b - a bias value of either Position.Bias.Forward or Position.Bias.Backward

a - the allocated region to render into

direction - the direction from the current position that can be thought of as the arrow keys typically found on a keyboard; this may be one of the following:

SwingConstants.WEST

biasRet - an array containing the bias that was checked

Returns:

the location within the model that best represents the next west or east location

protected boolean flipEastAndWestAtEnds(int position,
                                        Position.Bias bias)

Determines in which direction the next view lays. Consider the View at index n. Typically the Views are layed out from left to right, so that the View to the EAST will be at index n + 1, and the View to the WEST will be at index n - 1. In certain situations, such as with bidirectional text, it is possible that the View to EAST is not at index n + 1, but rather at index n - 1, or that the View to the WEST is not at index n - 1, but index n + 1. In this case this method would return true, indicating the Views are layed out in descending order.

This unconditionally returns false, subclasses should override this method if there is the possibility for laying Views in descending order.

Parameters:: position - position into the model; bias - either Position.Bias.Forward or Position.Bias.Backward
Returns:: false
