Class CellConstraints

java.lang.Object
  java.awt.GridBagConstraints
      eu.beesoft.gaia.swing.form.CellConstraints

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Cloneable

public class CellConstraints
extends java.awt.GridBagConstraints
implements java.lang.Cloneable

Constraints extends capabilities of java.awt.GridBagConstraints and is designe to use with Form component. It has a properties to manage border painting around a cell. When property is set, a line is drawed.

There is a set of the init() methods implemented in this class. They set the grid coordinates and sizes (variables in GrdiBagConstraints without modifying other variables. You can call them on a single CellConstraints instance, because it is internally cloned in GridBagLayout. So you can write this code:

 Form form = new Form ();
 CellConstraints cc = new CellConstraints ();
 form.add (new JLabel ("First"), cc.init (0, 0));
 form.add (new JTextField (10), cc.init (1, 0));
 form.add (new JLabel ("Second"), cc.init (0, 1));
 form.add (new JTextField (), cc.init (1, 1));

boolean	bottomBorder Set to true if Form should draw a horizontal line on the bottom margin.
boolean	leftBorder Set to true if Form should draw a vertical line on the left margin.
boolean	rightBorder Set to true if Form should draw a vertical line on the right margin.
boolean	topBorder Set to true if Form should draw a horizontal line on the top margin.
