Class VActionAdapter

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    ActionListener, Serializable, EventListener, Action
    Deprecated. 
    Use Java Swing instead, along with the classes in package com.ibm.as400.access

    public class VActionAdapter
extends Object
implements Action, Serializable
    The VActionAdapter class represents an object that listens for action events and subsequently performs a VAction.

    A VActionAdapter object is useful when an action listener is needed to perform a VAction. For example, this can be used to as an action listener for button clicks or menu item selections.

    This class essentially adapts the VAction class hierarchy to the javax.swing.Action class hierarchy.

    The following example creates an action adapter which is used to put up a properties pane for a directory in the integrated file system. The action adapter is then attached to a menu item, so that the action is performed when the menu item is selected. 

    // Set up the directory object.
AS400 system = new AS400 ("MySystem", "Userid", "Password");
VIFSDirectory directory = new VIFSDirectory (system, "/myDirectory");

    
// Set up a pane and add it to a frame.
AS400ExplorerPane pane = new AS400ExplorerPane (directory);

JFrame frame = new JFrame ("My Window");
frame.getContentPane().add(new JScrollPane(pane));



    
// Set up the properties action adapter.
VActionAdapter adapter = new VActionAdapter (directory,
    new VPropertiesAction (), pane.getActionContext ());

    
// Set up the menu item.
JMenuItem menuItem = new JMenuItem ("Properties");
menuItem.setEnabled (true);
menuItem.addActionListener (adapter);
