public AbstractTab(TabPane parent,
                   Dockable dockable)

Creates a new abstract tab.

Parameters:

getMinimumSize in interface Tab

Parameters:

tabs - the displayed tabs, exactly one entry is this and no entry is null

Returns:

the minimum size of this tab

getPreferredSize

public Dimension getPreferredSize(Tab[] tabs)

Description copied from interface: Tab

Gets the preferred size of this tab under the assumption that this tab is displayed together with tabs.

Specified by:

Parameters:

tabs - the displayed tabs, exactly one entry is this and no entry is null

Returns:

the preferred size of this tab

bind

public void bind()

Connects this tab with its parent and the DockController.

unbind

public void unbind()

Disconnects this tab from its parent and from the DockController.
