All Implemented Interfaces:

java.awt.event.ActionListener, java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable, java.util.EventListener, javax.swing.Action

public class DoClickAction
extends KeyedAction

An AbstractAction that is linked to a button component. Whenever the action is performed, the button's doClick method is called. This allows the DoClickAction to be used as a global key driven action without the button being necessarily in the focussed window.

Constructor Detail

DoClickAction

public DoClickAction(javax.swing.AbstractButton b)

Creates a new DoClickAction for a given button. This action should NOT be attached to this button because that would produce an infinite feedback loop. Instead it should be attached to another object like a menu item or, as in the GUIUtil.createKeyAction method, to the button's input / action map.

Parameters:

b - a button whose doClick method is called when the action is performed.

GUIUtil.createKeyAction( AbstractButton, KeyStroke )

DoClickAction

public DoClickAction(javax.swing.AbstractButton b,
                     javax.swing.KeyStroke stroke)

Creates a new DoClickAction for a given button. This action should NOT be attached to this button because that would produce an infinite feedback loop. Instead it should be attached to another object. Since this constructor takes an additional KeyStroke which is placed in the AbstractAction's ACCELERATOR_KEY field, this is suitable as a JMenuItem's action or an invisible global key action. An example of this behaviour can be seen in the ToolPalette constructor which uses the MenuFactory's addGlobalKeyCommand method for its buttons.

Parameters:

b - a button whose doClick method is called when the action is performed.
