Interface ActivityModel

All Superinterfaces:

javax.swing.BoundedRangeModel

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultActivityModel

public interface ActivityModel
extends javax.swing.BoundedRangeModel

Describes the progress of a activity. An activity is typically a long running background task which has been directly initiated or scheduled by the user.

Every progress model should add itself to the ActivityManager after it has been created.

Design Patterns

Framework
The interfaces and classes listed below define a framework for progress management.
Contract: ActivityManager, ActivityModel, JActivityWindow, JActivityIndicator.

Method Detail

getOwner

java.lang.Object getOwner()

Gets the owner of the progress model. This is typically a View or a Application.

setCancelable

void setCancelable(boolean b)

Set cancelable to false if the operation can not be canceled.

isCancelable

boolean isCancelable()

Returns true if the operation can be canceled.

setDoCancel

void setDoCancel(java.lang.Runnable doCancel)

The specified Runnable is executed when the user presses the cancel button.

setIndeterminate

void setIndeterminate(boolean newValue)

Sets the progress observer to indeterminate.

isIndeterminate

boolean isIndeterminate()

Returns true if the progress observer is set to indeterminate.

close

void close()

Indicate that the operation is closed. If the progress model added itself to the ActivityManager it MUST remove itself now.

isClosed

boolean isClosed()

Returns true if the operation is completed.

cancel
