Interface WizardPanelModel

All Known Implementing Classes:

SignWizardModel

public interface WizardPanelModel

In order to use the Wizard class you need to implement this interface. The implemented class will contain the contents of the user defined panels and add listeners to components that effect the ability to go to the next panel. See SignWizardModel.java for an example.

Method Summary

boolean	canAdvance()
void	close() This method can contain any housekeeping you require when the Wizard is exited.
java.util.Map	getJPanels() In order to use the Card Layout in the wizard class each JPanel must have a unique String identifier.
java.lang.String	getStartPanelID()
boolean	hasPrevious()
boolean	isFinishPanel()
java.lang.String	next()
java.lang.String	previous()
void	registerNextChangeListeners(javax.swing.event.ChangeListener e) A component that is registered will alert the Wizard class that it should check whether the advance button should be enabled.
void	registerNextKeyListeners(java.awt.event.KeyListener e) The same effect as registerNextChangeListeners(ChangeListener e) except applied to keys.
