All Implemented Interfaces:
java.io.Serializable

public class ApplicationActionMap
extends javax.swing.ActionMap

An ActionMap class where each entry corresponds to an @Action method from a single actionsClass (i.e. a class that contains one or more @Actions). Each entry's key is the @Action's name (the method name by default), and the value is an ApplicationAction that calls the @Actions method. For example, the code below prints "Hello World":

 public class HelloWorldActions {
     public @Action void Hello() { System.out.print("Hello "); }
     public @Action void World() { System.out.println("World"); }
 }
 // ...
 ApplicationActionMap appAM = new ApplicationActionMap(SimpleActions.class);
 ActionEvent e = new ActionEvent("no src", ActionEvent.ACTION_PERFORMED, "no cmd");
 appAM.get("Hello").actionPerformed(e);
 appAM.get("World").actionPerformed(e);
 

If a ResourceMap is provided then each ApplicationAction's (putValue, getValue) properties are initialized from the ResourceMap.

TBD: explain use of resourcemap including action types, actionsObject, actionsClass, ProxyActions,

Method Detail

getContext

public final ApplicationContext getContext()

getActionsClass

public final java.lang.Class getActionsClass()

getActionsObject

public final java.lang.Object getActionsObject()

getProxyActions

public java.util.List<ApplicationAction> getProxyActions()
All of the @ProxyActions recursively defined by this ApplicationActionMap and its parent ancestors.

Returns a read-only list of the @ProxyActions defined by this ApplicationActionMap's actionClass and, recursively, by this ApplicationActionMap's parent. If there are no proxyActions, an empty list is returned.

Returns:
a list of all the proxyActions for this ApplicationActionMap
