public class ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy extends FocusTraversalPolicy implements Serializable
A FocusTraversalPolicy that determines traversal order based on the order of child Components in a Container. From a particular focus cycle root, the policy makes a pre-order traversal of the Component hierarchy, and traverses a Container's children according to the ordering of the array returned byContainer.getComponents()
. Portions of the hierarchy that are not visible and displayable will not be searched.By default, ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy implicitly transfers focus down-cycle. That is, during normal forward focus traversal, the Component traversed after a focus cycle root will be the focus-cycle-root's default Component to focus. This behavior can be disabled using the
setImplicitDownCycleTraversal
method.By default, methods of this class will return a Component only if it is visible, displayable, enabled, and focusable. Subclasses can modify this behavior by overriding the
accept
method.This policy takes into account focus traversal policy providers. When searching for first/last/next/previous Component, if a focus traversal policy provider is encountered, its focus traversal policy is used to perform the search operation.

Method Detail

getComponentAfter
public Component getComponentAfter(Container aContainer, Component aComponent)
Returns the Component that should receive the focus after aComponent. aContainer must be a focus cycle root of aComponent or a focus traversal policy provider.By default, ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy implicitly transfers focus down-cycle. That is, during normal forward focus traversal, the Component traversed after a focus cycle root will be the focus-cycle- root's default Component to focus. This behavior can be disabled using the
setImplicitDownCycleTraversal
method.If aContainer is focus traversal policy provider, the focus is always transferred down-cycle.
- Specified by:
getComponentAfter
in classFocusTraversalPolicy
- Parameters:
aContainer
- a focus cycle root of aComponent or a focus traversal policy provideraComponent
- a (possibly indirect) child of aContainer, or aContainer itself- Returns:
- the Component that should receive the focus after aComponent, or null if no suitable Component can be found
- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if aContainer is not a focus cycle root of aComponent or focus traversal policy provider, or if either aContainer or aComponent is null
-
getComponentBefore
public Component getComponentBefore(Container aContainer, Component aComponent)
Returns the Component that should receive the focus before aComponent. aContainer must be a focus cycle root of aComponent or a focus traversal policy provider.- Specified by:
getComponentBefore
in classFocusTraversalPolicy
- Parameters:
aContainer
- a focus cycle root of aComponent or focus traversal policy provideraComponent
- a (possibly indirect) child of aContainer, or aContainer itself- Returns:
- the Component that should receive the focus before aComponent, or null if no suitable Component can be found
- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if aContainer is not a focus cycle root of aComponent or focus traversal policy provider, or if either aContainer or aComponent is null
-
getFirstComponent
public Component getFirstComponent(Container aContainer)
Returns the first Component in the traversal cycle. This method is used to determine the next Component to focus when traversal wraps in the forward direction.- Specified by:
getFirstComponent
in classFocusTraversalPolicy
- Parameters:
aContainer
- the focus cycle root or focus traversal policy provider whose first Component is to be returned- Returns:
- the first Component in the traversal cycle of aContainer, or null if no suitable Component can be found
- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if aContainer is null
-
getLastComponent
public Component getLastComponent(Container aContainer)
Returns the last Component in the traversal cycle. This method is used to determine the next Component to focus when traversal wraps in the reverse direction.- Specified by:
getLastComponent
in classFocusTraversalPolicy
- Parameters:
aContainer
- the focus cycle root or focus traversal policy provider whose last Component is to be returned- Returns:
- the last Component in the traversal cycle of aContainer, or null if no suitable Component can be found
- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if aContainer is null
-
getDefaultComponent
public Component getDefaultComponent(Container aContainer)
Returns the default Component to focus. This Component will be the first to receive focus when traversing down into a new focus traversal cycle rooted at aContainer. The default implementation of this method returns the same Component asgetFirstComponent
.- Specified by:
getDefaultComponent
in classFocusTraversalPolicy
- Parameters:
aContainer
- the focus cycle root or focus traversal policy provider whose default Component is to be returned- Returns:
- the default Component in the traversal cycle of aContainer, or null if no suitable Component can be found
- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
- if aContainer is null- See Also:
getFirstComponent(java.awt.Container)
-
setImplicitDownCycleTraversal
public void setImplicitDownCycleTraversal(boolean implicitDownCycleTraversal)
Sets whether this ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy transfers focus down-cycle implicitly. Iftrue
, during normal forward focus traversal, the Component traversed after a focus cycle root will be the focus-cycle-root's default Component to focus. Iffalse
, the next Component in the focus traversal cycle rooted at the specified focus cycle root will be traversed instead. The default value for this property istrue
.- Parameters:
implicitDownCycleTraversal
- whether this ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy transfers focus down-cycle implicitly- See Also:
getImplicitDownCycleTraversal()
,getFirstComponent(java.awt.Container)
-
getImplicitDownCycleTraversal
public boolean getImplicitDownCycleTraversal()
Returns whether this ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy transfers focus down-cycle implicitly. Iftrue
, during normal forward focus traversal, the Component traversed after a focus cycle root will be the focus-cycle-root's default Component to focus. Iffalse
, the next Component in the focus traversal cycle rooted at the specified focus cycle root will be traversed instead.- Returns:
- whether this ContainerOrderFocusTraversalPolicy transfers focus down-cycle implicitly
- See Also:
setImplicitDownCycleTraversal(boolean)
,getFirstComponent(java.awt.Container)
-
accept
protected boolean accept(Component aComponent)
Determines whether a Component is an acceptable choice as the new focus owner. By default, this method will accept a Component if and only if it is visible, displayable, enabled, and focusable.- Parameters:
aComponent
- the Component whose fitness as a focus owner is to be tested- Returns:
true
if aComponent is visible, displayable, enabled, and focusable;false
otherwise
