Class BaseSwingActionProviderCompositeSupport

com.sas.actionprovider.support.BaseSwingActionProviderCompositeSupport

Direct Known Subclasses:

SwingRemoteFileSelectorCompositeSupport

public abstract class BaseSwingActionProviderCompositeSupport

The BaseActionProviderCompositeSupport class is the base class for all Swing composite support classes of the Action Provider Framework( APF ). Support classes provide the functionality for registering and accessing Actions.

A composite support class is a grouping mechanism for other support classes. It allows a support class developer to group together different support classes to serve the needs of specialized view components. For example:

The HttpRemoteFileSelector Transformation Bean acquires it actions from a composite support class. This HttpRemoteFileSelectorComposite support delegates all requests for actions of table-type areas to the HttpRemoteFileSelectorTableViewSupport.

A basic understanding of the ActionProvider Framework, of which this class is a part, is recommended before attempting to use this class.

• For general information on the ActionProvider Framework, including an overview of how the primary classes of the framework work together, refer to the com.sas.actionprovider package documentation.

• For examples demonstrating how to use the ActionProvider Framework, including how to override default Actions or add new custom Actions, refer to the Samples Site.
