Class PaintEvent

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable
public class PaintEvent
extends ComponentEvent

The component-level paint event. This event is a special type which is used to ensure that paint/update method calls are serialized along with the other events delivered from the event queue. This event is not designed to be used with the Event Listener model; programs should continue to override paint/update methods in order render themselves properly.

An unspecified behavior will be caused if the id parameter of any particular PaintEvent instance is not in the range from PAINT_FIRST to PAINT_LAST.

Since:
1.1

Fields

PAINT_FIRST

public static final int PAINT_FIRST

Marks the first integer id for the range of paint event ids.

PAINT_LAST

public static final int PAINT_LAST

Marks the last integer id for the range of paint event ids.

PAINT

public static final int PAINT

The paint event type.

UPDATE

public static final int UPDATE

The update event type.
