Interface com.sun.java.swing.text.Keymap

public interface Keymap

A collection of bindings of KeyStrokes to actions. The bindings are basically name-value pairs that potentially resolve in a hierarchy.


Method Index

addActionForKeyStroke(KeyStroke, Action)
Adds a binding to the keymap.
getAction(KeyStroke)
Fetches the action appropriate for the given symbolic event sequence.
getBoundActions()
Fetches all of the actions defined in this keymap.
getBoundKeyStrokes()
Fetches all of the keystrokes in this map that are bound to some action.
getDefaultAction()
Fetch the default action to fire if a key is typed (ie a KEY_TYPED KeyEvent is received) and there is no binding for it.
getKeyStrokesForAction(Action)
Fetches the keystrokes that will result in the given action.
getName()
Fetches the name of the set of key-bindings.
getResolveParent()
Fetches the parent keymap used to resolve key-bindings.
isLocallyDefined(KeyStroke)
Determines if the given key sequence is locally defined.
removeBindings()
Removes all bindings from the keymap.
removeKeyStrokeBinding(KeyStroke)
Removes a binding from the keymap.
setDefaultAction(Action)
Set the default action to fire if a key is typed.
setResolveParent(Keymap)
Sets the parent keymap, which will be used to resolve key-bindings.

Methods

getName
 public abstract String getName()
Fetches the name of the set of key-bindings.

Returns:
the name
getDefaultAction
 public abstract Action getDefaultAction()
Fetch the default action to fire if a key is typed (ie a KEY_TYPED KeyEvent is received) and there is no binding for it. Typically this would be some action that inserts text so that the keymap doesn't require an action for each possible key.

setDefaultAction
 public abstract void setDefaultAction(Action a)
Set the default action to fire if a key is typed.

getAction
 public abstract Action getAction(KeyStroke key)
Fetches the action appropriate for the given symbolic event sequence. This is used by JTextController to determine how to interpret key sequences. If the binding is not resolved locally, an attempt is made to resolve through the parent keymap, if one is set.

Parameters:
key - the key sequence
Returns:
s the action associated with the key sequence if one is defined, otherwise null
getBoundKeyStrokes
 public abstract KeyStroke[] getBoundKeyStrokes()
Fetches all of the keystrokes in this map that are bound to some action.

Returns:
the list of keystrokes
getBoundActions
 public abstract Action[] getBoundActions()
Fetches all of the actions defined in this keymap.

Returns:
the list of actions
getKeyStrokesForAction
 public abstract KeyStroke[] getKeyStrokesForAction(Action a)
Fetches the keystrokes that will result in the given action.

Parameters:
a - the action
Returns:
the list of keystrokes
isLocallyDefined
 public abstract boolean isLocallyDefined(KeyStroke key)
Determines if the given key sequence is locally defined.

Parameters:
key - the key sequence
Returns:
true if the key sequence is locally defined else false
addActionForKeyStroke
 public abstract void addActionForKeyStroke(KeyStroke key,
                                            Action a)
Adds a binding to the keymap.

Parameters:
key - the key sequence
a - the action
removeKeyStrokeBinding
 public abstract void removeKeyStrokeBinding(KeyStroke keys)
Removes a binding from the keymap.

Parameters:
keys - the key sequence
removeBindings
 public abstract void removeBindings()
Removes all bindings from the keymap.

getResolveParent
 public abstract Keymap getResolveParent()
Fetches the parent keymap used to resolve key-bindings.

Returns:
the keymap
setResolveParent
 public abstract void setResolveParent(Keymap parent)
Sets the parent keymap, which will be used to resolve key-bindings.

Parameters:
parent - the parent keymap
