Method Detail

getForm

public JForm getForm()

bind

public void bind(TabularDataModel tabularData)
          throws BindException

Binds the form to each column in the specified TabularDataModel object. The bind operation will create the best user-interface components to display/edit the data model values based on each column's MetaData object. And finally, if "autoLayout" is true, it will also add and layout those components within the form.

Parameters:

tabularData - TabularDataModel being bound to the form

Throws:

BindException - if there were errors when binding to the data model

See Also:

MetaData

bind

public void bind(TabularDataModel tabularData,
                 String columnName)
          throws BindException

Binds the form to the specified column in the TabularDataModel object. The bind operation will create the best user-interface component to display/edit the data model value based on the column's MetaData object. If "autoLayout" is true, it will also add and layout the component within the form.

Parameters:

tabularData - TabularDataModel being bound to the form

columnName - String containing the name of the column

Throws:

BindException - if there were errors when binding to the data model

bind

public void bind(Object bean)
          throws BindException

Binds the form to each property in the specified JavaBean object. The bind operation will create the best user-interface components to display/edit the data model values based on each property's description. If "autoLayout" is true, it will also add and layout those components within the form.

Parameters:

bean - JavaBean object being bound to the form

Throws:

BindException - if there were errors when binding to the data model

bind

public void bind(Object bean,
                 String propertyName)
          throws BindException

Binds the form to the specified property in the JavaBean object. The bind operation will create the best user-interface component to display/edit the data model value based on the property's description. If "autoLayout" is true, it will also add and layout the component within the form.

Parameters:

bean - JavaBean object being bound to the form

propertyName - String containing the name of the property

Throws:

BindException - if there were errors when binding to the data model

bind

public void bind(DataModel model)
          throws BindException

Binds the form to each field in the specified DataModel object. The bind operation will create the best user-interface components to display/edit the data model values based on each field's MetaData object. If "autoLayout" is true, it will also add and layout those components within the form.

Parameters:

model - DataModel object being bound to the form

Throws:

BindException - if there were errors when binding to the data model

bind

public void bind(DataModel model,
                 String fieldName)
          throws BindException

Binds the form to the specified field in the DataModel object. The bind operation will create the best user-interface component to display/edit the data model value based on the field's MetaData object. If "autoLayout" is true, it will also add and layout the component within the form.

Parameters:

model - DataModel object being bound to the form

fieldName - String containing the name of the field

Throws:

BindException - if there were errors when binding to the data model

addAction

public JButton addAction(Action action)

Description copied from class: JNComponent

Adds the specified action to the end of the tool bar for this component. If no tool bar exists, a new tool bar is automatically created and added to the top of this component.

Overrides:

Parameters:

action - the action added to the tool bar

Returns:

the buton that must be clicked to perform the specified action
