Method Detail

getTypeDisplayName

public String getTypeDisplayName()

Provide the display name of this attach type. The return value is read from "displayName" attribute of the registry file when this implementation is registered via AttachType.Registration annotation. Therefore in this case the implementation should NOT override this method as it's not called.

Returns:

display name of this Attach Type

getCustomizer

public abstract JComponent getCustomizer()

Returns visual customizer for this Attach Type.

 Customizer can not implement the Controller interface any more,
 due to a clash of Controller.isValid() method with
 Component.isValid().
 Override AttachType.getController() method instead.
 

The customizer can provide help by implementing HelpCtx.Provider

Returns:

visual customizer for this Attach Type

getController

public Controller getController()

Return the implementation of Controller interface.
It's not desired to implement the Controller interface by JComponent returned from AttachType.getCustomizer() method, because of the clash of Controller.isValid() method with Component.isValid(). An explicit implementation should be returned by overriding this method. The default implementation returns null, in which case no Controller is used.

Returns:

Controller implementation or null.
