Interface DropPaneContainer

All Superinterfaces:

javax.swing.RootPaneContainer

All Known Implementing Classes:

DropableDialog, JaspiraPageContainer

public interface DropPaneContainer
extends javax.swing.RootPaneContainer

Interface that defines a top level container that supports the Jaspira DnD mechanism. A Frame capable of using the Jaspira DnD mechanism needs to implement this interface. Note that standard Swing-toplevel-components (JWindows, JFrame, JDialog, JApplet and JInternalFrame) already implement the methods of RootPaneContainer. The interface provides methods for registering InteractionClient s with the Container and ultimatively with the DragDropPane associated with it. Note that it is NOT necessary to register Jaspira-Plugins, these are inherently added and removed through the Jaspira page mechanism.
