All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, AccessibleAction, AccessibleComponent, AccessibleExtendedComponent, AccessibleText, AccessibleValue
Direct Known Subclasses:
JButton.AccessibleJButton, JMenuItem.AccessibleJMenuItem, JToggleButton.AccessibleJToggleButton
Enclosing class:
AbstractButton

protected abstract class AbstractButton.AccessibleAbstractButton
extends JComponent.AccessibleJComponent
implements AccessibleAction, AccessibleValue, AccessibleText, AccessibleExtendedComponent

This class implements accessibility support for the AbstractButton class. It provides an implementation of the Java Accessibility API appropriate to button and menu item user-interface elements.

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 JavaBeansTM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.

Constructor Detail

AbstractButton.AccessibleAbstractButton

protected AbstractButton.AccessibleAbstractButton()
Method Detail

Parameters:
i - zero-based index of actions
Returns:
true if the the action was performed; else false.

getAccessibleAction

public AccessibleAction getAccessibleAction()
Get the AccessibleAction associated with this object. In the implementation of the Java Accessibility API for this class, return this object, which is responsible for implementing the AccessibleAction interface on behalf of itself.

Overrides:
getAccessibleAction in class AccessibleContext
Returns:
this object

getAccessibleActionCount

public int getAccessibleActionCount()
Returns the number of Actions available in this object. The default behavior of a button is to have one action - toggle the button.

Returns:
1, the number of Actions in this object

getAccessibleActionDescription

public String getAccessibleActionDescription(int i)
Return a description of the specified action of the object.

Parameters:
i - zero-based index of the actions

public AccessibleIcon[] getAccessibleIcon()
Get the AccessibleIcons associated with this object if one or more exist. Otherwise return null.

Overrides:
getAccessibleIcon in class AccessibleContext

getAccessibleKeyBinding

public AccessibleKeyBinding getAccessibleKeyBinding()
Returns key bindings associated with this object

Overrides:
getAccessibleKeyBinding in class JComponent.AccessibleJComponent
Returns:
the key bindings, if supported, of the object; otherwise, null

getAccessibleName

public String getAccessibleName()
Returns the accessible name of this object.

Overrides:
getAccessibleName in class JComponent.AccessibleJComponent
Returns:
the localized name of the object -- can be null if this object does not have a name

getAccessibleRelationSet

public AccessibleRelationSet getAccessibleRelationSet()
Get the AccessibleRelationSet associated with this object if one exists. Otherwise return null.

Overrides:
getAccessibleRelationSet in class AccessibleContext

getAccessibleStateSet

public AccessibleStateSet getAccessibleStateSet()
Get the state set of this object.

Overrides:
getAccessibleStateSet in class JComponent.AccessibleJComponent
Returns:
an instance of AccessibleState containing the current state of the object

getAccessibleText

public AccessibleText getAccessibleText()
Overrides:
getAccessibleText in class AccessibleContext

getAccessibleValue

public AccessibleValue getAccessibleValue()
Get the AccessibleValue associated with this object. In the implementation of the Java Accessibility API for this class, return this object, which is responsible for implementing the AccessibleValue interface on behalf of itself.

Overrides:
getAccessibleValue in class AccessibleContext
Returns:
this object

getAfterIndex

public String getAfterIndex(int part,
                            int index)
Returns the String after a given index.

Parameters:
part - the AccessibleText.CHARACTER, AccessibleText.WORD, or AccessibleText.SENTENCE to retrieve
index - an index within the text >= 0
Returns:
the letter, word, or sentence, null for an invalid index or part

getAtIndex

public String getAtIndex(int part,
                         int index)
Returns the String at a given index.

Parameters:
part - the AccessibleText.CHARACTER, AccessibleText.WORD, or AccessibleText.SENTENCE to retrieve
index - an index within the text >= 0
Returns:
the letter, word, or sentence, null for an invalid index or part

getBeforeIndex

                             int index)
Returns the String before a given index.

Parameters:
part - the AccessibleText.CHARACTER, AccessibleText.WORD, or AccessibleText.SENTENCE to retrieve

Returns:
the zero-based offset of the caret.

getCharacterAttribute

public AttributeSet getCharacterAttribute(int i)
Return the AttributeSet for a given character at a given index

Parameters:
i - the zero-based index into the text
