Direct Known Subclasses:

HiGridBorder

public class JCBorder

extends Object

The class contains static methods to draw shadows around a specified area. The most useful methods contained here are the various draw() methods.

The key difference between this static class and the Swing border classes is the ability to draw borders anywhere, not just around the outside of a component.

Field Summary

static String[]	border_strings String names of the border styles.
static int[]	border_values Style value that corresponds to the list of String names.
static int	CONTROL_IN Border drawn with MS-Windows style control shadows.
static int	CONTROL_OUT Border drawn with MS-Windows style control shadows.
static int	ETCHED_IN Border drawn with double line; border appears inset.
static int	ETCHED_OUT Border drawn with double line; border appears raised.
static int	FRAME_IN Border drawn with 1-pixel shadow-in at edge; border appears framed.
static int	FRAME_OUT Border drawn with 1-pixel shadow-out at edge; border appears framed.
static int	IN Border drawn appears inset.
static int	NONE No border.
static int	NUM_BORDER_STYLES Number of different border styles.
static int	OUT Border drawn appears raised.
static int	PLAIN Border drawn in foreground color.
