public interface WindowInterface

Interface for an object that can arrange for a JmriPanel to be displayed.

Typically used by some component that wants to display a pane (for example, in an independent JmriJFrame or as part of a paned interface) to do some more stuff. Rather than have the component build its own window, etc it invokes one of these, so that the position and display of that component can be controlled.

Any JmriAbstractAction that uses the show() method will have its dispose() invoked when the associated frame goes away. It should dispose() any cached panes at that time.

Since:

2.9.4

Method Detail

show

void show(JmriPanel child,
          JmriAbstractAction action)

Show, in whatever way is appropriate, a specific JmriPanel

Parameters:

child - new JmriPanel to show

action - JmriAbstractAction making the request

show

void show(JmriPanel child,
          JmriAbstractAction action,
          WindowInterface.Hint hint)

Show, in whatever way is appropriate, a specific JmriPanel, in a hinted location

Parameters:

child - new JmriPanel to show

action - JmriAbstractAction making the request

hint - suggestion on where to put the content

multipleInstances

boolean multipleInstances()

Should 2nd and subsequent requests for a panel create a new instance, or provide the 1st one for reuse?

Returns:

true if multiple instances should be provided, false if only one should be provided

dispose

void dispose()

getFrame

java.awt.Frame getFrame()

Returns the WindowInterface as a Frame or null.

Returns:

a Frame or null
