Type: Utility

Package: org.jos.ui.gui.util

Source Code: http://www.jos.org/source/org/jos/ui/gui/util/ActionUtilable.java.html http://www.jos.org/source/org/jos/ui/gui/util/ActionUtility.java.html

Objective: An automated Menu and Toolbar creation tool for use in JOS Applications. Used for configuring Action objects supplied by a component, including icons, tooltip text,etc. Creates Menus and Toolbars from these Action objects. As shown in the Swing example files, menus and toolbars can be created from a model called Action. Because of this, enabling and disabling, icons, etc are simplified due to the fact there is a central point. This utility automatically creates menus and toolbars, including:

• icons
• shortcut keys
• menu mnemonics
• tooltips

This utility contains the following features:

• Returns JMenuBar from Actions objects
• Returns JToolBar from Actions objects

• Icon object from a file name
• KeyStroke from text such as 'CTRL T'

• creation of popup menus
• customisable menu and toolbar options (ie icons on menus, tooltips on menus, toolbar default position, etc)
• (add here as you like!)
