Class Overview

The main class for creating a dialog window. You can use this class to create a custom dialog, or invoke the many class methods in JOptionPane to create a variety of standard dialogs. For information about creating dialogs, see The Java Tutorial section How to Make Dialogs.

The JDialog component contains a JRootPane as its only child. The contentPane should be the parent of any children of the JDialog. As a convenience add and its variants, remove and setLayout have been overridden to forward to the contentPane as necessary. This means you can write:

       dialog.add(child);

And the child will be added to the contentPane. The contentPane is always non-null. Attempting to set it to null generates an exception. The default contentPane has a BorderLayout manager set on it. Refer to RootPaneContainer for details on adding, removing and setting the LayoutManager of a JDialog.

Please see the JRootPane documentation for a complete description of the contentPane, glassPane, and layeredPane components.

In a multi-screen environment, you can create a JDialog on a different screen device than its owner. See Frame for more information.

Warning: Swing is not thread safe. For more information see Swing's Threading Policy.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans^TM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

Returns

an AccessibleJDialog that serves as the AccessibleContext of this JDialog

public Container getContentPane ()

Returns the contentPane object for this dialog.

Returns

the contentPane property

public int getDefaultCloseOperation ()

Returns the operation which occurs when the user initiates a "close" on this dialog.

Returns

an integer indicating the window-close operation

public Component getGlassPane ()

Returns the glassPane object for this dialog.

Returns

the glassPane property

public Graphics getGraphics ()

Creates a graphics context for this component. This method will return null if this component is currently not displayable.

Returns

a graphics context for this component, or null if it has none

public JMenuBar getJMenuBar ()

Returns the menubar set on this dialog.

public JLayeredPane getLayeredPane ()

Returns the layeredPane object for this dialog.

Returns

the layeredPane property

public JRootPane getRootPane ()

Returns the rootPane object for this dialog.

Returns

this components single JRootPane child.

public TransferHandler getTransferHandler ()

Gets the transferHandler property.

Returns

the value of the transferHandler property

public static boolean isDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated ()

Returns true if newly created JDialogs should have their Window decorations provided by the current look and feel. This is only a hint, as certain look and feels may not support this feature.

Returns

true if look and feel should provide Window decorations.

public void remove (Component comp)

Removes the specified component from the container. If comp is not the rootPane, this will forward the call to the contentPane. This will do nothing if comp is not a child of the JDialog or contentPane.

Parameters

comp	the component to be removed

Throws

NullPointerException	if `comp` is null

public void repaint (long time, int x, int y, int width, int height)

Repaints the specified rectangle of this component within time milliseconds. Refer to RepaintManager for details on how the repaint is handled.

Parameters

time	maximum time in milliseconds before update
x	the x coordinate
y	the y coordinate
width	the width
height	the height

public void setContentPane (Container contentPane)

Sets the contentPane property. This method is called by the constructor.

Swing's painting architecture requires an opaque JComponent in the containment hiearchy. This is typically provided by the content pane. If you replace the content pane it is recommended you replace it with an opaque JComponent.

Parameters

contentPane	the `contentPane` object for this dialog

Throws

IllegalComponentStateException	(a runtime exception) if the content pane parameter is `null`

public void setDefaultCloseOperation (int operation)

Sets the operation that will happen by default when the user initiates a "close" on this dialog. You must specify one of the following choices:

DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE (defined in WindowConstants): Don't do anything; require the program to handle the operation in the windowClosing method of a registered WindowListener object.
HIDE_ON_CLOSE (defined in WindowConstants): Automatically hide the dialog after invoking any registered WindowListener objects.
DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE (defined in WindowConstants): Automatically hide and dispose the dialog after invoking any registered WindowListener objects.

The value is set to HIDE_ON_CLOSE by default. Changes to the value of this property cause the firing of a property change event, with property name "defaultCloseOperation".

Note: When the last displayable window within the Java virtual machine (VM) is disposed of, the VM may terminate. See AWT Threading Issues for more information.

Parameters

operation	the operation which should be performed when the user closes the dialog

Throws

IllegalArgumentException	if defaultCloseOperation value isn't one of the above valid values

public static void setDefaultLookAndFeelDecorated (boolean defaultLookAndFeelDecorated)

Provides a hint as to whether or not newly created JDialogs should have their Window decorations (such as borders, widgets to close the window, title...) provided by the current look and feel. If defaultLookAndFeelDecorated is true, the current LookAndFeel supports providing window decorations, and the current window manager supports undecorated windows, then newly created JDialogs will have their Window decorations provided by the current LookAndFeel. Otherwise, newly created JDialogs will have their Window decorations provided by the current window manager.

You can get the same effect on a single JDialog by doing the following:

    JDialog dialog = new JDialog();
    dialog.setUndecorated(true);
    dialog.getRootPane().setWindowDecorationStyle(JRootPane.PLAIN_DIALOG);

Parameters

defaultLookAndFeelDecorated	A hint as to whether or not current look and feel should provide window decorations

public void setGlassPane (Component glassPane)

public void setJMenuBar (JMenuBar menu)

Sets the menubar for this dialog.

Parameters

menu	the menubar being placed in the dialog

public void setLayeredPane (JLayeredPane layeredPane)

Sets the layeredPane property. This method is called by the constructor.

Parameters

layeredPane	the new `layeredPane` property

Throws

IllegalComponentStateException	(a runtime exception) if the layered pane parameter is null

public void setLayout (LayoutManager manager)

Sets the LayoutManager. Overridden to conditionally forward the call to the contentPane. Refer to RootPaneContainer for more information.

Parameters

manager	the `LayoutManager`

public void setTransferHandler (TransferHandler newHandler)

Sets the transferHandler property, which is a mechanism to support transfer of data into this component. Use null if the component does not support data transfer operations.

If the system property suppressSwingDropSupport is false (the default) and the current drop target on this component is either null or not a user-set drop target, this method will change the drop target as follows: If newHandler is null it will clear the drop target. If not null it will install a new DropTarget.

Note: When used with JDialog, TransferHandler only provides data import capability, as the data export related methods are currently typed to JComponent.

Please see How to Use Drag and Drop and Data Transfer, a section in The Java Tutorial, for more information.

Parameters

newHandler	the new `TransferHandler`

public void update (Graphics g)

Calls paint(g). This method was overridden to prevent an unnecessary call to clear the background.

Parameters

g	the `Graphics` context in which to paint

Protected Methods

protected void addImpl (Component comp, Object constraints, int index)

Adds the specified child Component. This method is overridden to conditionally forward calls to the contentPane. By default, children are added to the contentPane instead of the frame, refer to RootPaneContainer for details.

Parameters

index	the index

Throws

IllegalArgumentException	if `index` is invalid
IllegalArgumentException	if adding the container's parent to itself
