Class RGBA

java.lang.Object
org.eclipse.swt.graphics.RGBA
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable

public final class RGBA extends Object implements Serializable
Instances of this class are descriptions of colors in terms of the primary additive color model (red, green, blue and alpha). A color may be described in terms of the relative intensities of these three primary colors. The brightness of each color is specified by a value in the range 0 to 255, where 0 indicates no color (blackness) and 255 indicates maximum intensity and for alpha 0 indicates transparent and 255 indicates opaque.

The hashCode() method in this class uses the values of the public fields to compute the hash value. When storing instances of the class in hashed collections, do not modify these fields after the object has been inserted.

Application code does not need to explicitly release the resources managed by each instance when those instances are no longer required, and thus no dispose() method is provided.
