All Implemented Interfaces:
java.awt.image.ImageObserver, java.awt.MenuContainer, java.io.Serializable

public class XletContainer
extends java.awt.Container

This class provides a container that can be embedded in a widget hierarchy, and can provide a container that can safely be used as the top-level container of an embedded Xlet. This solves the problem of an embedded Xlet being able to call getParent() to discover the widget hierarchy in which it is embedded.

MHP 1.1

Constructor Detail

XletContainer

public XletContainer(java.awt.Container parent)
Construct a new XletContainer as a child of Parent. The XletContainer contains exactly one widget: A child container. The child container is constrained to be at the same location and the same size as the parent XletContainer.

Parameters:
parent - The widget that is to have an Xlet embedded within it.
Throws:
java.lang.NullPointerException - if parent is null
See Also:
getXletContainer()
Method Detail

getXletContainer

public java.awt.Container getXletContainer()
Get the only child of the XletContainer. This container can safely be used as the top-level container of an Xlet, e.g. an Xlet embedded in a DVB-HTML page. Calling getParent() on this container from client code will return null, unless the caller has been granted special access via a platform-dependent mechanism.

If this method is invoked more than once for the same instance of XletContainer, it will return the same instance.

Returns:
The child of this XletContainer.
