Class DefaultDesktopManager

    java.lang.Object
      javax.swing.DefaultDesktopManager

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable, DesktopManager

    public class DefaultDesktopManager

extends Object
implements DesktopManager, Serializable

This is an implementation of the `DesktopManager`. It currently implements the basic behaviors for managing `JInternalFrame`s in an arbitrary parent. `JInternalFrame`s that are not children of a `JDesktop` will use this component to handle their desktop-like actions.

This class provides a policy for the various JInternalFrame methods, it is not meant to be called directly rather the various JInternalFrame methods will call into the DesktopManager.

  `JDesktopPane`, `JInternalFrame`

  Parameters:
    `f` - the `JInternalFrame` to be removed

    public void maximizeFrame(JInternalFrame f)

  Resizes the frame to fill its parents bounds.

  Specified by:
    `maximizeFrame` in interface `DesktopManager`
  Parameters:
    `f` - the frame to be resized

### minimizeFrame

    public void minimizeFrame(JInternalFrame f)

  Restores the frame back to its size and position prior to a `maximizeFrame` call.

  Specified by:
    `minimizeFrame` in interface `DesktopManager`
  Parameters:
    `f` - the `JInternalFrame` to be restored

### iconifyFrame

    public void iconifyFrame(JInternalFrame f)

  Removes the frame from its parent and adds its `desktopIcon` to the parent.

  Specified by:
    `iconifyFrame` in interface `DesktopManager`
  Parameters:
    `f` - the `JInternalFrame` to be iconified

### deiconifyFrame

    public void deiconifyFrame(JInternalFrame f)

  Removes the desktopIcon from its parent and adds its frame to the parent.

  Specified by:
    `deiconifyFrame` in interface `DesktopManager`
  Parameters:
    `f` - the `JInternalFrame` to be de-iconified

### activateFrame

    public void activateFrame(JInternalFrame f)

  This will activate f moving it to the front. It will set the current active frame's (if any) `IS_SELECTED_PROPERTY` to `false`. There can be only one active frame across all Layers.

  Specified by:
    `activateFrame` in interface `DesktopManager`
  Parameters:
    `f` - the `JInternalFrame` to be activated

### deactivateFrame

    public void deactivateFrame(JInternalFrame f)

  Description copied from interface: `DesktopManager`
  Generally, indicate that this frame has lost focus. This is usually called after the JInternalFrame's IS_SELECTED_PROPERTY has been set to false.

  Specified by:
    `deactivateFrame` in interface `DesktopManager`

### beginDraggingFrame

    public void beginDraggingFrame(JComponent f)

  Description copied from interface: `DesktopManager`
  This method is normally called when the user has indicated that they will begin dragging a component around. This method should be called prior to any dragFrame() calls to allow the DesktopManager to prepare any necessary state. Normally f will be a JInternalFrame.

  Specified by:
    `beginDraggingFrame` in interface `DesktopManager`

### dragFrame

    public void dragFrame(JComponent f,

  Moves the visible location of the frame being dragged to the location specified. The means by which this occurs can vary depending on the dragging algorithm being used. The actual logical location of the frame might not change until `endDraggingFrame` is called.

  Specified by:
    `dragFrame` in interface `DesktopManager`

### endDraggingFrame
