Constructor Detail

AWTWidget

public AWTWidget(java.awt.Component comp)

Create a Widget which acts as a wrapper around an arbitrary AWT/Swing component.

Method Detail

invalidateSize

public void invalidateSize()

This method should be called any time this Widget's minimum, maximum, or preferred size changes. It notifies the Widget's parent container so that it can discard any cached layout information. Calling this method does not actually cause the layout to change. To do that, you must call layoutChildren() on the WidgetContainer.
