Interface CSSStyleDefaults

All Known Implementing Classes:

CSSStyleDefaultsImpl

public interface CSSStyleDefaults

Interface used to specify default CSS style property values in a view. When a CSSStyleDefaults is applied to a view, the style property values become new defaults. In generated XML that only saves changed property values, the properties specified through the CSSStyleDefault are not saved in the XML.

This interface is primarily intended to be used by the thin beans, to provide better compatibility when working with the Java-client beans during design time in a development environment.

Method Summary

int[]	getComponentIDs() Retrieves the array of component IDs for which style defaults are specified.
ViewStyle	getCSSDefaults(int compID) Retrieves a ViewStyle that specifies the new default property values for a specified component.

An array of component IDs for which defaults are specified.

getCSSDefaults

public ViewStyle getCSSDefaults(int compID)

Returns:

The ViewStyle for the specified component. The used bits should be set only for those properties whose values should be the new defaults for the specified component.
