All Superinterfaces:

Cloneable

All Known Implementing Classes:

public interface AbstractGraphicsConfiguration
extends Cloneable

A marker interface describing a graphics configuration, visual, or pixel format in a toolkit-independent manner.

Method Summary

Capabilities	getChosenCapabilities() Return the capabilities reflecting this graphics configuration, which may differ from the capabilites used to choose this configuration.
AbstractGraphicsConfiguration	getNativeGraphicsConfiguration() In case this instance already reflects a native configuration, return this one.
Capabilities	getRequestedCapabilities() Return the capabilities used to choose this graphics configuration.
AbstractGraphicsScreen	getScreen() Return the screen this graphics configuration is valid for

Method Detail

getScreen

AbstractGraphicsScreen getScreen()

Return the screen this graphics configuration is valid for

getChosenCapabilities

Capabilities getChosenCapabilities()

Return the capabilities reflecting this graphics configuration, which may differ from the capabilites used to choose this configuration.

Returns:

A copy of the Capabilities to avoid mutation by the user.

getRequestedCapabilities

Capabilities getRequestedCapabilities()

Return the capabilities used to choose this graphics configuration. These may be used to reconfigure the NativeWindow in case the device changes in a multi screen environment.

Returns:

A copy of the Capabilities to avoid mutation by the user.

getNativeGraphicsConfiguration

AbstractGraphicsConfiguration getNativeGraphicsConfiguration()

In case this instance already reflects a native configuration, return this one. Otherwise return the encapsuled native configuration, as it shall be included e.g. in the AWT case.
