Class BasicComboPopup

All Implemented Interfaces:
ImageObserver, MenuContainer, Serializable, Accessible, MenuElement, ComboPopup
Direct Known Subclasses:
MetalComboBoxUI.MetalComboPopup
public class BasicComboPopup extends JPopupMenu implements ComboPopup
This is a basic implementation of the ComboPopup interface. This class represents the ui for the popup portion of the combo box.

All event handling is handled by listener classes created with the createxxxListener() methods and internal classes. You can change the behavior of this class by overriding the createxxxListener() methods and supplying your own event listeners or subclassing from the ones supplied in this class.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.
