Method Detail

init

public void init()

Called by the browser or applet viewer to inform this applet that it has been loaded into the system. It is always called before the first time that the start method is called.

A subclass of Applet should override this method if it has an initialization to perform. For example, an applet with threads would use the init method to create the threads and the destroy method to kill them.

Overrides:

init in class Applet

See Also:

Applet.destroy(), Applet.start(), Applet.stop()

start

public void start()

Called by the browser or applet viewer to inform this applet that it should start its execution. It is called after the init method and each time the applet is revisited in a Web page.

A subclass of Applet should override this method if it has any operation that it wants to perform each time the Web page containing it is visited. For example, an applet with animation might want to use the start method to resume animation and the stop method to suspend the animation.

Overrides:

start in class Applet

See Also:

Applet.destroy(), Applet.init(), Applet.stop()

stop

public void stop()

Called by the browser or applet viewer to inform this applet that it should stop its execution.

Overrides:

stop in class Applet

containerActivated

public void containerActivated(IlvViewContainer viewContainer)

Invoked when a view container owned by this main window has been activated.

Specified by:

containerActivated in interface IlvMainWindow

Parameters:

viewContainer - The view container that has been activated.

registerStaticView

public void registerStaticView(String name,
                               IlvDocumentView view)

Registers the specified document view as a static view within the applet. This view is not created when a document is created but rather with the main window itself. Typically, it can be defined at design time in an IDE when designing the main frame by inserting an instance of a document view class such as IlvPanelView within the main frame.

The view does not depend on a specific document but is associated with the active document of the application, if the document template of this document has been declared to use this view (one of the container templates of the document template has the same name as the name used to register this view).

When a document becomes active, for example if a container containing one of its views becomes active, the ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvDocumentView#DOCUMENT_PROPERTY} of the view is set to this document, and its method IlvDocumentView.initializeView(ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvDocument) is called with the new active document as the parameter.

Specified by:

registerStaticView in interface IlvMainWindow

Parameters:

name - The name that identifies this view and that must be used if calling the method unregisterStaticView(ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvDocumentView). This name also identifies a single container template created for this view and must then be unique among all the container templates added to this main window.

view - The static view to register.

See Also:

unregisterStaticView(ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvDocumentView)

unregisterStaticView

public void unregisterStaticView(IlvDocumentView view)

Unregisters the specified document view from the main window.

Specified by:

unregisterStaticView in interface IlvMainWindow

Parameters:

view - The static view to unregister.

See Also:

registerStaticView(java.lang.String, ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvDocumentView)

registerStaticContainer

public void registerStaticContainer(String name,
                                    IlvViewContainer container)

Registers the specified view container as a static container within the main window.

This view container is not created when a document is created but rather with the main window itself. Typically, it can be defined at design time in an IDE when designing the main frame by inserting an instance of a view container within the main frame.

When a document becomes active, for example if a container containing one of its views becomes active, the views of the specified container are set to the new active document by setting the ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvDocumentView#DOCUMENT_PROPERTY} of the view to this document, and its method IlvDocumentView.initializeView(ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvDocument) is called with the new active document as the parameter.

Specified by:

registerStaticContainer in interface IlvMainWindow

Parameters:

name - The name that identifies this view and that must be used if calling the method unregisterStaticView(ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvDocumentView). This name also identifies a single container template created for this view and must then be unique among all the container templates added to this main window.

container - The static container to register.

See Also:

unregisterStaticContainer(ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvViewContainer)

unregisterStaticContainer

public boolean unregisterStaticContainer(IlvViewContainer container)

Unregisters the specified view container from the main window.

Specified by:

unregisterStaticContainer in interface IlvMainWindow

Parameters:

container - The static container to unregister.

Returns:

true if the specified container was previously registered to this main window; false otherwise.

See Also:

registerStaticContainer(java.lang.String, ilog.views.appframe.docview.IlvViewContainer)

setFileChooserHTMLPage

public void setFileChooserHTMLPage(URL url)

Specifies a URL to an HTML page that is displayed by the main file chooser of the application for selecting a document file.
There are two ways for the specified HTML page to have selectable document files:

• The HTML page already contains references to document files that can be opened in the application. Such document file references are HTML elements that are marked with an <href> tag pair.
• Selectable document files are provided with the setFileChooserChoices(java.net.URL[]) method. Before the HTML page is displayed, the content of an HTML table element it contains is replaced by a list of HTML table rows, each row allowing you to select one of the specified document files.

  The rule for retrieving the HTML table for replacing its content is:

  • If one of the table elements has the value of its "name" attribute equal to HTML_CHOICES_TABLE_NAME, it is selected.
  • Otherwise, the first HTML table element encountered in the HTML page is selected.

Parameters:
