Constructor Detail

HWMTextField

public HWMTextField()

Constructor

HWMTextField

public HWMTextField(java.lang.String strValue)

Constructor

Parameters:

strValue - Textfield value

Method Detail

propertyChange

public void propertyChange(java.beans.PropertyChangeEvent evt)

This method gets called when a bound property is changed.

Specified by:

propertyChange in interface java.beans.PropertyChangeListener

Parameters:

evt - - A PropertyChangeEvent object describing the event source and the property that has changed.

GetActionScript

public HWMActionScript GetActionScript()

Get the Java Script

Returns:

The script to execute

SetActionScript

public void SetActionScript(HWMActionScript hwmScript)

Set the Java Script

Parameters:

hwmScript - The ActionScript instance

getToolTipText

public java.lang.String getToolTipText()

Returns the tooltip for the button. The reason we override this method is that if there is no tooltip to show, then the tooltip will be null. But if it is null, it will not show up in the properties.

Overrides:

getToolTipText in class javax.swing.JComponent

Returns:

String Tooltip for the button

setToolTipText

public void setToolTipText(java.lang.String strToolTip)

Sets the tooltip for the component. The reason we override this method is that if there is no tooltip to show, then the tooltip should be null. But the property panel will set an empty string instead of null. If the tooltip is an empty string, a black dot is shown. To avoid this problem, we set the tooltip text to null if there is no tooltip to be shown.

Overrides:

setToolTipText in class javax.swing.JComponent

Parameters:

strToolTip - Tooltip for the button

setEnabled

public void setEnabled(boolean bEnableState)

Enables the component so that items can be selected. When the combo box is disabled, items cannot be selected and values cannot be typed into its field (if it is editable).

Overrides:

setEnabled in class javax.swing.JComponent

Parameters:

bEnableState - - a boolean value, where true enables the component and false disables it

setVisible

public void setVisible(boolean bVisibleState)

Makes the component visible or invisible. Overrides Component.setVisible.

Overrides:

setVisible in class javax.swing.JComponent

Parameters:

bVisibleState - - true to make the component visible

setEditable

public void setEditable(boolean bEditableState)

Makes the text field editable or not.

Overrides:

setEditable in class javax.swing.text.JTextComponent

Parameters:

bEditableState - - true to make the text field editable

Enable

public void Enable()

Providing "Enable" method rather than overriding java's "enable" method because of the following reasons: 1> enable is deprecated 2> It does nothing visually for some controls like button 3> setEnabled calls enable/disable in the base class once it changes the UI. So overriding enable or disable and then invoking setEnabled will lead to a loop where this class's enable/disable will call setEnabled on the super class and that would in turn call enable/disable in this class.

Disable

public void Disable()

Providing "Disable" method rather than overriding java's "disable" method because of the following reasons: 1> disable is deprecated 2> It does nothing visually for some controls like button 3> setEnabled calls enable/disable in the base class once it changes the UI. So overriding enable or disable and then invoking setEnabled will lead to a loop where this class's enable/disable will call setEnabled on the super class and that would in turn call enable/disable in this class.

strType - Type of text in the textfield
