public class: JPanel [javadoc | source]
java.lang.Object
   java.awt.Component
      java.awt.Container
         javax.swing.JComponent
            javax.swing.JPanel

All Implemented Interfaces:
    Accessible, HasGetTransferHandler, Serializable, MenuContainer, ImageObserver

JPanel is a generic lightweight container. For examples and task-oriented documentation for JPanel, see How to Use Panels, a section in The Java Tutorial.

Warning: Swing is not thread safe. For more information see Swing's Threading Policy.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see java.beans.XMLEncoder .

Nested Class Summary:
protected class  JPanel.AccessibleJPanel  This class implements accessibility support for the JPanel class. It provides an implementation of the Java Accessibility API appropriate to panel user-interface elements.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the java.beans package. Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.

Constructor:
 public JPanel() 
 public JPanel(LayoutManager layout) 
    Create a new buffered JPanel with the specified layout manager
    Parameters:
    layout - the LayoutManager to use
 public JPanel(boolean isDoubleBuffered) 
 public JPanel(LayoutManager layout,
    boolean isDoubleBuffered) 
    Creates a new JPanel with the specified layout manager and buffering strategy.
    Parameters:
    layout - the LayoutManager to use
    isDoubleBuffered - a boolean, true for double-buffering, which uses additional memory space to achieve fast, flicker-free updates

Method from javax.swing.JPanel Detail:
 public AccessibleContext getAccessibleContext() 
    Gets the AccessibleContext associated with this JPanel. For JPanels, the AccessibleContext takes the form of an AccessibleJPanel. A new AccessibleJPanel instance is created if necessary.
 public PanelUI getUI() 
    Returns the look and feel (L&F) object that renders this component.
 public String getUIClassID() 
    Returns a string that specifies the name of the L&F class that renders this component.
 protected String paramString() 
    Returns a string representation of this JPanel. This method is intended to be used only for debugging purposes, and the content and format of the returned string may vary between implementations. The returned string may be empty but may not be null.
 public  void setUI(PanelUI ui) 
    Sets the look and feel (L&F) object that renders this component.
 public  void updateUI() 
    Resets the UI property with a value from the current look and feel.
