  • Method Details

    • getReferenceIDComponentMap

      protected Map<String,Component> getReferenceIDComponentMap()
      Returns:
      The lazily-created map of components mapped to reference IDs.
    • getConstraintsClass

      public Class<? extends ReferenceConstraints> getConstraintsClass()
      Returns:
      The class representing the type of constraints appropriate for this layout.
    • componentConstraintsChanged

      protected void componentConstraintsChanged(Component component, Constraints oldConstraints, Constraints newConstraints)
      Indicates that the constraints for a component have changed. This method is also called when the component is first added to the layout. This version removes and installs property change listeners to and from the constraints objects as appropriate.

      This version adds or removes the component reference ID to the map.

      Overrides:
      componentConstraintsChanged in class AbstractLayout<ReferenceConstraints>
      Parameters:
      component - The component for which constraints have changed.
      oldConstraints - The old component constraints, or null if there were no constraints previously.
      newConstraints - The new component constraints, or null if the component now has no constraints.
    • createDefaultConstraints

      public ReferenceConstraints createDefaultConstraints()
      Description copied from interface: Layout
      Creates default constraints for the layout component.
      Returns:
      New default constraints for the layout component.
    • getComponentByID

      public Component getComponentByID(String id)
      Retrieves a component bound to a given ID.
      Parameters:
      id - The ID with which a component may be bound.
      Returns:
      A component with constraints specifying the given ID, or null if there is no component bound to the given ID.
