   ↳ javax.swing.text.AsyncBoxView.ChildState

Class Overview

A record representing the layout state of a child view. It is runnable as a task on another thread. All access to the child view that is based upon a read-lock on the model should synchronize on this object (i.e. The layout thread and the GUI thread can both have a read lock on the model at the same time and are not protected from each other). Access to a child view hierarchy is serialized via synchronization on the ChildState instance.

Summary

Public Constructors
AsyncBoxView.ChildState(View v)
Construct a child status.
Public Methods
View getChildView()
Fetch the child view this record represents
float getMajorOffset()
Get the offset along the major axis
float getMajorSpan()
What is the span along the major axis.
float getMinorOffset()
What is the offset along the minor axis
float getMinorSpan()
What is the span along the minor axis.
boolean isLayoutValid()
Has the child view been laid out.
void preferenceChanged(boolean width, boolean height)
Mark preferences changed for this child.
void run()
Update the child state.
void setMajorOffset(float offs)
This method should only be called by the ChildLocator, it is simply a convenient place to hold the cached location.

Public Constructors

public AsyncBoxView.ChildState (View v)

Construct a child status. This needs to start out as fairly large so we don't falsely begin with the idea that all of the children are visible.

Public Methods

public View getChildView ()

Fetch the child view this record represents

public float getMajorOffset ()

Get the offset along the major axis

public float getMajorSpan ()

What is the span along the major axis.

public float getMinorOffset ()

What is the offset along the minor axis

public float getMinorSpan ()

What is the span along the minor axis.

public boolean isLayoutValid ()

Has the child view been laid out.

public void preferenceChanged (boolean width, boolean height)

Mark preferences changed for this child.

Parameters
width true if the width preference has changed
height true if the height preference has changed

public void run ()

Update the child state. This should be called by the thread that desires to spend time updating the child state (intended to be the layout thread).

This aquires a read lock on the associated document for the duration of the update to ensure the model is not changed while it is operating. The first thing to do would be to see if any work actually needs to be done. The following could have conceivably happened while the state was waiting to be updated:

  1. The child may have been removed from the view hierarchy.
  2. The child may have been updated by a higher priority operation (i.e. the child may have become visible).

public void setMajorOffset (float offs)

This method should only be called by the ChildLocator, it is simply a convenient place to hold the cached location.
