Class DropTargetContext.TransferableProxy

java.lang.Object

java.awt.dnd.DropTargetContext.TransferableProxy

All Implemented Interfaces:: Transferable

Enclosing class:: DropTargetContext

protected class DropTargetContext.TransferableProxy extends Object implements Transferable

TransferableProxy is a helper inner class that implements Transferable interface and serves as a proxy for another Transferable object which represents data transfer for a particular drag-n-drop operation.

The proxy forwards all requests to the encapsulated transferable and automatically performs additional conversion on the data returned by the encapsulated transferable in case of local transfer.

Since:: 1.2

Field Summary

Modifier and Type	Field	Description
`protected boolean`	`isLocal`	A `boolean` indicating if the encapsulated `Transferable` object represents the result of local drag-n-drop operation (within the same JVM).
`protected Transferable`	`transferable`	The encapsulated `Transferable` object.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`Object`	`getTransferData(DataFlavor df)`	Returns an object which represents the data provided by the encapsulated transferable for the requested data flavor.
`DataFlavor[]`	`getTransferDataFlavors()`	Returns an array of DataFlavor objects indicating the flavors the data can be provided in by the encapsulated transferable.
`boolean`	`isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor flavor)`	Returns whether or not the specified data flavor is supported by the encapsulated transferable.

Methods declared in class Object

clone, equals, finalize, getClass, hashCode, notify, notifyAll, toString, wait, wait, wait

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`protected Object`	`clone()`	Creates and returns a copy of this object.
`boolean`	`equals(Object obj)`	Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.
`protected void`	`finalize()`	Deprecated, for removal: This API element is subject to removal in a future version. Finalization is deprecated and subject to removal in a future release.
`final Class<?>`	`getClass()`	Returns the runtime class of this `Object`.
`int`	`hashCode()`	Returns a hash code value for this object.
`final void`	`notify()`	Wakes up a single thread that is waiting on this object's monitor.
`final void`	`notifyAll()`	Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor.
`String`	`toString()`	Returns a string representation of the object.
`final void`	`wait()`	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis)`	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.
`final void`	`wait(long timeoutMillis, int nanos)`	Causes the current thread to wait until it is awakened, typically by being notified or interrupted, or until a certain amount of real time has elapsed.

Field Details

transferable

protected Transferable transferable

The encapsulated Transferable object.

isLocal

protected boolean isLocal

A boolean indicating if the encapsulated Transferable object represents the result of local drag-n-drop operation (within the same JVM).

Method Details

getTransferDataFlavors

public DataFlavor[] getTransferDataFlavors()

Returns an array of DataFlavor objects indicating the flavors the data can be provided in by the encapsulated transferable.

Specified by:: getTransferDataFlavors in interface Transferable
Returns:: an array of data flavors in which the data can be provided by the encapsulated transferable

isDataFlavorSupported

public boolean isDataFlavorSupported(DataFlavor flavor)

Returns whether or not the specified data flavor is supported by the encapsulated transferable.

Specified by:: isDataFlavorSupported in interface Transferable
Parameters:: flavor - the requested flavor for the data
Returns:: true if the data flavor is supported, false otherwise

getTransferData

public Object getTransferData(DataFlavor df) throws UnsupportedFlavorException, IOException

Returns an object which represents the data provided by the encapsulated transferable for the requested data flavor.

In case of local transfer a serialized copy of the object returned by the encapsulated transferable is provided when the data is requested in application/x-java-serialized-object data flavor.

Specified by:

getTransferData in interface Transferable

Parameters:

df - the requested flavor for the data

Returns:

an object which represents the data to be transferred

Throws:

IOException - if the data is no longer available in the requested flavor.

UnsupportedFlavorException - if the requested data flavor is not supported.
