Class

Description

AbstractButton

Defines common behaviors for buttons and menu items.

AbstractButton.AccessibleAbstractButton

This class implements accessibility support for the AbstractButton class.

AbstractCellEditor

A base class for CellEditors, providing default implementations for the methods in the CellEditor interface except getCellEditorValue().

AbstractListModel

The abstract definition for the data model that provides a List with its contents.

AbstractSpinnerModel

This class provides the ChangeListener part of the SpinnerModel interface that should be suitable for most concrete SpinnerModel implementations.

Action

The Action interface provides a useful extension to the ActionListener interface in cases where the same functionality may be accessed by several controls.

ActionMap

ActionMap provides mappings from Objects (called keys or Action names) to Actions.

BoundedRangeModel

Defines the data model used by components like Sliders and ProgressBars.

Box

A lightweight container that uses a BoxLayout object as its layout manager.

ButtonGroup

This class is used to create a multiple-exclusion scope for a set of buttons.

ButtonModel

State model for buttons.

CellEditor

This interface defines the methods any general editor should be able to implement.

ComboBoxEditor

The editor component used for JComboBox components.

ComboBoxModel

A data model for a combo box.

ComponentInputMap

A ComponentInputMap is an InputMap associated with a particular JComponent.

DefaultButtonModel

The default implementation of a Button component's data model.

DefaultCellEditor.EditorDelegate

The protected EditorDelegate class.

DefaultListCellRenderer

Renders an item in a list.

DefaultRowSorter.ModelWrapper

DefaultRowSorter.ModelWrapper is responsible for providing the data that gets sorted by DefaultRowSorter.

DesktopManager

DesktopManager objects are owned by a JDesktopPane object.

DropMode

Drop modes, used to determine the method by which a component tracks and indicates a drop location during drag and drop.

FocusManager

This class has been obsoleted by the 1.4 focus APIs.

GroupLayout.Alignment

Enumeration of the possible ways ParallelGroup can align its children.

GroupLayout.Group

GroupLayout.SequentialGroup

A Group that positions and sizes its elements sequentially, one after another.

Icon

A small fixed size picture, typically used to decorate components.

InputMap

InputMap provides a binding between an input event (currently only KeyStrokes are used) and an Object.

InputVerifier

InternalFrameFocusTraversalPolicy

A FocusTraversalPolicy which can optionally provide an algorithm for determining a JInternalFrame's initial Component.

JButton

An implementation of a "push" button.
