Interface Content

All Superinterfaces:

Dockable<ContentManager>, Observable

public interface Content
extends Dockable<ContentManager>

A content is a wrapper of a component decorated with some properties like a title, an icon, etc. The visualization of a content depends on specific platform implementation. A platform implementation can use a JTabbedPane or a JDesktopPane for example. A PropertyChangeEvent is fired for the following properties:

• this content's title ("title")
• this content's foreground ("foreground")
• this content's component ("component")
• this content's selected status ("selected")
• this content's enable status ("enabled")
• this content's icon ("icon")
• this content's disabledIcon ("disabledIcon")
• this content's popupMenu ("popupMenu")
• this content's detached ("detached")
• this content's toolTipText ("toolTipTexttoolTipText")
