[JGB-general] JGB - Internal Frames Support

[Aggelos G. <ag...@bi...>]

Hello,
 
 
 I would like to ask you whether jgb supports creation of internalFrames for
 use within MDI applications.
 
 If yes could you give me an example?
 
 Thank you in advance

[JGB-general] JGB - Internal Frames Support

[Aggelos G. <ag...@bi...>]

Dear Francois,

 

Thank you very much for your help.

 

Adding a <control id="contentPane" class="javax.swing.JDesktopPane"> turns
the window to an MDI.

 

However adding InternalFrames within this content pane is a little problem 

 

If I add the InternalFrame GUI description (e.g. <control
id="myInternalFrame" class="javax.swing.JInternalFrame">.etc) in the same
xml document, then obviously only one internal frame is added when the MDI
application starts.

 

Do you have any idea how we could add internalFrames dynamically (as respond
to an event)?

 

One solution could be to describe the internalFrame GUI in a separate xml
document, but how we could then use this xml through JGB?

Do you have any clue?

 

Have a nice day,

 

Aggelos Georgoulas

See the register element description:
http://jgb.sourceforge.net/documentation/elements/register/index.php

This allows you to register an EventListener to any control.  You could 
then create menu items that call your event handler, and the handler 
would respond by creating new JInternalFrames.

Also see the Browser tutorial page:
http://jgb.sourceforge.net/documentation/tutorials/webbrowser/index.php

Bye !

There is no built-in support, but...

The class attribute of the XX element allows you to specify what type of
GUI element you want to create.  It should be a simple matter to create
the necessary objects.

I'm really sorry, I meant the "control" element.  See the documentation
