Constructor Summary

SplitDockPlaceholderProperty()
Creates a new empty property

SplitDockPlaceholderProperty(Path placeholder)
Creates a new property.

SplitDockPlaceholderProperty(Path placeholder, SplitDockPathProperty backup)
Creates a new property.

SplitDockPlaceholderProperty(Path placeholder, SplitDockProperty backup)
Creates a new property.

Method Summary

SplitDockPlaceholderProperty	copy() Gets a copy of this property, the successor must be copied as well.
DockableProperty	getBackup() Gets the backup location that was set when this SplitDockPlaceholderProperty was created.
String	getFactoryID() Gets the unique name of the DockablePropertyFactory which can create this type of DockableProperty.
Path	getPlaceholder() Gets the placeholder this property references to.
void	load(DataInputStream in) Reads the contents of this DockableProperty from a stream.
void	load(XElement element) Reads the contents of this DockableProperty from an xml element.
void	setSuccessor(DockableProperty successor) Sets the property which will be used if this property was used and there is not yet a leaf in the tree of DockStations and Dockables reached. For example: there is a DockStation root, a dockable DockStation node which is a child of root and a Dockable leaf which is a child of node. A DockableProperty called one would describe the relationship between root and node.
void	store(DataOutputStream out) Stores the contents of this DockableProperty in a stream.
void	store(XElement element) Stores the contents of this property as xml element.
DockableProperty	toLocation(SplitNode target) Gets some DockableProperty that works as backup property if the referenced placeholder is not found.
SplitDockProperty	toSplitLocation(SplitNode target) Gets a SplitDockProperty that works as backup property if the referenced placeholder is not found.
String	toString()

SplitDockPlaceholderProperty

public SplitDockPlaceholderProperty(Path placeholder,
                                    SplitDockProperty backup)

Creates a new property.

Parameters:

placeholder - the referenced placeholder

backup - backup location to be used if placeholder is not found

SplitDockPlaceholderProperty

public SplitDockPlaceholderProperty(Path placeholder,
                                    SplitDockPathProperty backup)

Creates a new property.

Parameters:

placeholder - the referenced placeholder

backup - backup location to be used if placeholder is not found

Method Detail

toString

public String toString()

Overrides:

toString in class Object

getPlaceholder

public Path getPlaceholder()

Gets the placeholder this property references to.

Returns:

the placeholder, not null

toLocation

public DockableProperty toLocation(SplitNode target)

Gets some DockableProperty that works as backup property if the referenced placeholder is not found.

Parameters:

target - the node that asks for this location

Returns:

the location, not null

toSplitLocation

public SplitDockProperty toSplitLocation(SplitNode target)

Gets a SplitDockProperty that works as backup property if the referenced placeholder is not found.

Parameters:

target - the node that asks for this location

Returns:

the location, not null

setSuccessor

public void setSuccessor(DockableProperty successor)

Description copied from interface: DockableProperty

Sets the property which will be used if this property was used and there is not yet a leaf in the tree of DockStations and Dockables reached.
For example: there is a DockStation root, a dockable DockStation node which is a child of root and a Dockable leaf which is a child of node.
A DockableProperty called one would describe the relationship between root and node. Another DockableProperty called two would describe the relationship between node and leaf. In this case, the successor of one would be two.

Specified by:

setSuccessor in interface DockableProperty

Overrides:

setSuccessor in class AbstractDockableProperty

Parameters:

successor - the location of a child

getBackup

public DockableProperty getBackup()

Gets the backup location that was set when this SplitDockPlaceholderProperty was created.

Returns:

the backup location, might be null

copy

public SplitDockPlaceholderProperty copy()

Description copied from interface: DockableProperty

Gets a copy of this property, the successor must be copied as well.

Returns:

an independent copy of this

getFactoryID

public String getFactoryID()

Description copied from interface: DockableProperty

Gets the unique name of the DockablePropertyFactory which can create this type of DockableProperty.

Returns:

the id
