From interface javax.accessibility.AccessibleSelection

Protected Constructors

protected MenuComponent.AccessibleAWTMenuComponent ()

Although the class is abstract, this should be called by all sub-classes.

Public Methods

public void addAccessibleSelection (int i)

Adds the specified Accessible child of the object to the object's selection. If the object supports multiple selections, the specified child is added to any existing selection, otherwise it replaces any existing selection in the object. If the specified child is already selected, this method has no effect.

Parameters

i	the zero-based index of the child

public void addFocusListener (FocusListener l)

Adds the specified focus listener to receive focus events from this component.

Parameters

l	the focus listener

public void clearAccessibleSelection ()

Clears the selection in the object, so that no children in the object are selected.

public boolean contains (Point p)

Checks whether the specified point is within this object's bounds, where the point's x and y coordinates are defined to be relative to the coordinate system of the object.

Parameters

p	the `Point` relative to the coordinate system of the object

Returns

true if object contains Point; otherwise false

public Accessible getAccessibleAt (Point p)

Returns the Accessible child, if one exists, contained at the local coordinate Point. If there is no Accessible child, null is returned.

Parameters

p	the point defining the top-left corner of the `Accessible`, given in the coordinate space of the object's parent

Returns

the Accessible, if it exists, at the specified location; else null

public Accessible getAccessibleChild (int i)

Returns the nth Accessible child of the object.

Parameters

i	zero-based index of child

Returns

the nth Accessible child of the object

public int getAccessibleChildrenCount ()

Returns the number of accessible children in the object. If all of the children of this object implement Accessible, then this method should return the number of children of this object.

Returns

the number of accessible children in the object

public AccessibleComponent getAccessibleComponent ()

Gets the AccessibleComponent associated with this object if one exists. Otherwise return null.

Returns

the component

public String getAccessibleDescription ()

Gets the accessible description of this object. This should be a concise, localized description of what this object is - what is its meaning to the user. If the object has a tooltip, the tooltip text may be an appropriate string to return, assuming it contains a concise description of the object (instead of just the name of the object - e.g. a "Save" icon on a toolbar that had "save" as the tooltip text shouldn't return the tooltip text as the description, but something like "Saves the current text document" instead).

Returns

the localized description of the object -- can be null if this object does not have a description

public int getAccessibleIndexInParent ()

Gets the index of this object in its accessible parent.

Returns

the index of this object in its parent; -1 if this object does not have an accessible parent

public String getAccessibleName ()

Gets the accessible name of this object. This should almost never return java.awt.MenuComponent.getName, as that generally isn't a localized name, and doesn't have meaning for the user. If the object is fundamentally a text object (e.g. a menu item), the accessible name should be the text of the object (e.g. "save"). If the object has a tooltip, the tooltip text may also be an appropriate String to return.

Returns

the localized name of the object -- can be null if this object does not have a name

public Accessible getAccessibleParent ()

Gets the Accessible parent of this object. If the parent of this object implements Accessible, this method should simply return getParent.

Returns

the Accessible parent of this object -- can be null if this object does not have an Accessible parent

public AccessibleRole getAccessibleRole ()

Gets the role of this object.

Returns

an instance of AccessibleRole describing the role of the object

public AccessibleSelection getAccessibleSelection ()

Gets the AccessibleSelection associated with this object which allows its Accessible children to be selected.

Returns

AccessibleSelection if supported by object; else return null

public Accessible getAccessibleSelection (int i)

Returns an Accessible representing the specified selected child in the object. If there isn't a selection, or there are fewer children selected than the integer passed in, the return value will be null.

Note that the index represents the i-th selected child, which is different from the i-th child.

Parameters

i	the zero-based index of selected children

Returns

the i-th selected child

public int getAccessibleSelectionCount ()

Returns the number of Accessible children currently selected. If no children are selected, the return value will be 0.

Returns

the number of items currently selected

public AccessibleStateSet getAccessibleStateSet ()

Gets the state of this object.

Returns

an instance of AccessibleStateSet containing the current state set of the object

public Color getBackground ()

Gets the background color of this object.

Returns

the background color, if supported, of the object; otherwise, null

public Rectangle getBounds ()

Gets the bounds of this object in the form of a Rectangle object. The bounds specify this object's width, height, and location relative to its parent.

Returns

a rectangle indicating this component's bounds; null if this object is not on the screen

public Cursor getCursor ()

Gets the Cursor of this object.

Returns

the Curso, if supported, of the object; otherwise, null

public Font getFont ()

Gets the Font of this object.

Returns

the Font,if supported, for the object; otherwise, null

public FontMetrics getFontMetrics (Font f)

Gets the FontMetrics of this object.

Parameters

f	the `Font`

Returns

the FontMetrics, if supported, the object; otherwise, null

public Color getForeground ()

Gets the foreground color of this object.

Returns

the foreground color, if supported, of the object; otherwise, null

public Locale getLocale ()

Returns the locale of this object.

Returns

the locale of this object

public Point getLocation ()

Gets the location of the object relative to the parent in the form of a point specifying the object's top-left corner in the screen's coordinate space.

Returns

an instance of Point representing the top-left corner of the object's bounds in the coordinate space of the screen; null if this object or its parent are not on the screen

public Point getLocationOnScreen ()

Returns the location of the object on the screen.

Returns

location of object on screen -- can be null if this object is not on the screen

public Dimension getSize ()

Returns the size of this object in the form of a Dimension object. The height field of the Dimension object contains this object's height, and the width field of the Dimension object contains this object's width.

Returns

a Dimension object that indicates the size of this component; null if this object is not on the screen

public boolean isAccessibleChildSelected (int i)

Determines if the current child of this object is selected.

Parameters

i	the zero-based index of the child in this `Accessible` object

Returns

true if the current child of this object is selected; else false

public boolean isEnabled ()

Determines if the object is enabled.

Returns

true if object is enabled; otherwise, false

public boolean isFocusTraversable ()

Returns whether this object can accept focus or not.

Returns

true if object can accept focus; otherwise false

public boolean isShowing ()

Determines if the object is showing. This is determined by checking the visibility of the object and ancestors of the object. Note: this will return true even if the object is obscured by another (for example, it happens to be underneath a menu that was pulled down).

Returns

true if object is showing; otherwise, false

public boolean isVisible ()

Determines if the object is visible. Note: this means that the object intends to be visible; however, it may not in fact be showing on the screen because one of the objects that this object is contained by is not visible. To determine if an object is showing on the screen, use isShowing.

Returns

true if object is visible; otherwise, false

public void removeAccessibleSelection (int i)

Removes the specified child of the object from the object's selection. If the specified item isn't currently selected, this method has no effect.

Parameters

i	the zero-based index of the child

public void removeFocusListener (FocusListener l)

Removes the specified focus listener so it no longer receives focus events from this component.

Parameters

l	the focus listener

public void requestFocus ()

Requests focus for this object.

public void selectAllAccessibleSelection ()

Causes every child of the object to be selected if the object supports multiple selections.

public void setBackground (Color c)

Sets the background color of this object. (For transparency, see isOpaque.)

Parameters

c	the new `Color` for the background

public void setBounds (Rectangle r)

Sets the bounds of this object in the form of a Rectangle object. The bounds specify this object's width, height, and location relative to its parent.

Parameters

r	a rectangle indicating this component's bounds

public void setCursor (Cursor cursor)

Sets the Cursor of this object.

The method may have no visual effect if the Java platform implementation and/or the native system do not support changing the mouse cursor shape.

Parameters

cursor	the new `Cursor` for the object

public void setEnabled (boolean b)

Sets the enabled state of the object.

Parameters

b	if true, enables this object; otherwise, disables it
