Class java.awt.Toolkit

java.lang.Object
   |
   +----java.awt.Toolkit

public abstract class Toolkit
extends Object
This class is the abstract superclass of all actual implementations of the Abstract Window Toolkit. Subclasses of Toolkit are used to bind the various components to particular native toolkit implementations.

Most applications should not call any of the methods in this class directly. The methods defined by Toolkit are the "glue" that joins the platform-independent classes in the java.awt package with their counterparts in java.awt.peer. Some methods defined by Toolkit query the native operating system directly.

Throws: AWTError
if a toolkit could not be found, or if one could not be accessed or instantiated.
 o getImage
 public abstract Image getImage(String filename)
Returns an image which gets pixel data from the specified file.

Parameters:
filename - the name of a file containing pixel data in a recognized file format.
Returns:
an image which gets its pixel data from the specified file.
 o getImage
 public abstract Image getImage(URL url)
Returns an image which gets pixel data from the specified URL.

Parameters:
url - the URL to use in fetching the pixel data.
Returns:
an image which gets its pixel data from the specified URL.
 o prepareImage
 public abstract boolean prepareImage(Image image,
                                      int width,
                                      int height,
                                      ImageObserver observer)
Prepares an image for rendering.

If the values of the width and height arguments are both -1, this method prepares the image for rendering on the default screen; otherwise, this method prepares an image for rendering on the default screen at the specified width and height.

The image data is downloaded asynchronously in another thread, and an appropriately scaled screen representation of the image is generated.

This method is called by components prepareImage methods.

Information on the flags returned by this method can be found with the definition of the ImageObserver interface.

Parameters:
image - the image for which to prepare a screen representation.
width - the width of the desired screen representation, or -1.
height - the height of the desired screen representation, or -1.
observer - the ImageObserver object to be notified as the image is being prepared.
Returns:
true if the image has already been fully prepared; false otherwise.
See Also:
prepareImage, prepareImage, ImageObserver
 o checkImage
 public abstract int checkImage(Image image,
                                int width,
                                int height,
                                ImageObserver observer)
Indicates the construction status of a specified image that is being prepared for display.

If the values of the width and height arguments are both -1, this method returns the construction status of a screen representation of the specified image in this toolkit. Otherwise, this method returns the construction status of a scaled representation of the image at the specified width and height.

This method does not cause the image to begin loading. An application must call prepareImage to force the loading of an image.

This method is called by the component's checkImage methods.

Information on the flags returned by this method can be found with the definition of the ImageObserver interface.

Parameters:
image - the image whose status is being checked.
width - the width of the scaled version whose status is being checked, or -1.
height - the height of the scaled version whose status is being checked, or -1.
observer - the ImageObserver object to be notified as the image is being prepared.
Returns:
the bitwise inclusive OR of the ImageObserver flags for the image data that is currently available.
See Also:
prepareImage, checkImage, checkImage, ImageObserver
 o createImage

                                   int imagelength)
Creates an image which decodes the image stored in the specified byte array, and at the specified offset and length. The data must be in some image format, such as GIF or JPEG, that is supported by this toolkit.

Parameters:
imagedata - an array of bytes, representing image data in a supported image format.
imageoffset - the offset of the beginning of the data in the array.
imagelength - the length of the data in the array.
Returns:
an image.
 o getPrintJob
 public abstract PrintJob getPrintJob(Frame frame,
                                      String jobtitle,

See Also:
Clipboard
 o getMenuShortcutKeyMask
 public int getMenuShortcutKeyMask()
Determines which modifier key is the appropriate accelerator key for menu shortcuts.

Menu shortcuts, which are embodied in the MenuShortcut class, are handled by the MenuBar class.

By default, this method returns Event.CTRL_MASK. Toolkit implementations should override this method if the Control key isn't the correct key for accelerators.

Returns:
the modifier mask on the Event class that is used for menu shortcuts on this toolkit.
See Also:
MenuBar, MenuShortcut
 o getNativeContainer
 protected static Container getNativeContainer(Component c)
Give native peers the ability to query the native container given a native component (eg the direct parent may be lightweight).

 o getProperty
 public static String getProperty(String key,
                                  String defaultValue)
Gets a property with the specified key and default. This method returns defaultValue if the property is not found.

 o getSystemEventQueue
 public final EventQueue getSystemEventQueue()
Get the application's or applet's EventQueue instance. Depending on the Toolkit implementation, different EventQueues may be returned for different applets. Applets should therefore not assume that the EventQueue instance returned by this method will be shared by other applets or the system.

 o getSystemEventQueueImpl
 protected abstract EventQueue getSystemEventQueueImpl()
