Class Toolkit

java.awt.Toolkit
public abstract class Toolkit
extends Object
This class is the abstract superclass of all actual implementations of the Abstract Window Toolkit. Subclasses ofToolkit
are used to bind the various components to particular native toolkit implementations.
Many GUI operations may be performed asynchronously. This means that if you set the state of a component, and then immediately query the state, the returned value may not yet reflect the requested change. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Scrolling to a specified position.
For example, callingScrollPane.setScrollPosition
and thengetScrollPosition
may return an incorrect value if the original request has not yet been processed. - Moving the focus from one component to another.
For more information, seeTiming Focus Transfers, a section inThe Swing Tutorial. - Making a top-level container visible.
CallingsetVisible(true)
on aWindow
,Frame
orDialog
may occur asynchronously. - Setting the size or location of a top-level container.
Calls tosetSize
,setBounds
orsetLocation
on aWindow
,Frame
orDialog
are forwarded to the underlying window management system and may be ignored or modified. See Window for more information.
Most applications should not call any of the methods in this class directly. The methods defined by Toolkit
are the "glue" that joins the platform-independent classes in thejava.awt
package with their counterparts injava.awt.peer
. Some methods defined byToolkit
query the native operating system directly.

setDynamicLayout
public void setDynamicLayout(boolean dynamic) throws HeadlessException
Controls whether the layout of Containers is validated dynamically during resizing, or statically, after resizing is complete. Note that this feature is not supported on all platforms, and conversely, that this feature cannot be turned off on some platforms. On platforms where dynamic layout during resize is not supported (or is always supported), setting this property has no effect. Note that this feature can be set or unset as a property of the operating system or window manager on some platforms. On such platforms, the dynamic resize property must be set at the operating system or window manager level before this method can take effect. This method does not change the underlying operating system or window manager support or settings. The OS/WM support can be queried using getDesktopProperty("awt.dynamicLayoutSupported").
Parameters:
dynamic
- If true, Containers should re-layout their components as the Container is being resized. If false, the layout will be validated after resizing is finished.
Throws:
[HeadlessException](../../java/awt/HeadlessException.html "class in java.awt")
- if GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless() returns true
Since:
1.4

isDynamicLayoutSet
protected boolean isDynamicLayoutSet() throws HeadlessException
Returns whether the layout of Containers is validated dynamically during resizing, or statically, after resizing is complete. Note: this method returns the value that was set programmatically; it does not reflect support at the level of the operating system or window manager for dynamic layout on resizing, or the current operating system or window manager settings. The OS/WM support can be queried using getDesktopProperty("awt.dynamicLayoutSupported").
Returns:
true if validation of Containers is done dynamically, false if validation is done after resizing is finished.
Throws:
[HeadlessException](../../java/awt/HeadlessException.html "class in java.awt")

getFontMetrics
@Deprecated public abstract FontMetrics getFontMetrics(Font font)
Deprecated. As of JDK version 1.2, replaced by the Font
method getLineMetrics
.
Gets the screen device metrics for rendering of the font.
Parameters:
font
- a font
Returns:
the screen metrics of the specified font in this toolkit

LineMetrics, [Font.getLineMetrics(java.lang.String, java.awt.font.FontRenderContext)](../../java/awt/Font.html#getLineMetrics%28java.lang.String, java.awt.font.FontRenderContext%29), GraphicsEnvironment.getScreenDevices()
sync
public abstract void sync()
Synchronizes this toolkit's graphics state. Some window systems may do buffering of graphics events.
This method ensures that the display is up-to-date. It is useful for animation.
getDefaultToolkit
public static Toolkit getDefaultToolkit()
Gets the default toolkit.
If a system property named "java.awt.headless"
is set to true
then the headless implementation of Toolkit
is used.
If there is no "java.awt.headless"
or it is set tofalse
and there is a system property named"awt.toolkit"
, that property is treated as the name of a class that is a subclass of Toolkit
; otherwise the default platform-specific implementation ofToolkit
is used.
Also loads additional classes into the VM, using the property 'assistive_technologies' specified in the Sun reference implementation by a line in the 'accessibility.properties' file. The form is "assistive_technologies=..." where the "..." is a comma-separated list of assistive technology classes to load. Each class is loaded in the order given and a single instance of each is created using Class.forName(class).newInstance(). This is done just after the AWT toolkit is created. All errors are handled via an AWTError exception.
Returns:
the default toolkit.
Throws:
[AWTError](../../java/awt/AWTError.html "class in java.awt")
- if a toolkit could not be found, or if one could not be accessed or instantiated.
getImage
public abstract Image getImage(String filename)
Returns an image which gets pixel data from the specified file, whose format can be either GIF, JPEG or PNG. The underlying toolkit attempts to resolve multiple requests with the same filename to the same returned Image.
Since the mechanism required to facilitate this sharing ofImage
objects may continue to hold onto images that are no longer in use for an indefinite period of time, developers are encouraged to implement their own caching of images by using the createImage variant wherever available. If the image data contained in the specified file changes, the Image
object returned from this method may still contain stale information which was loaded from the file after a prior call. Previously loaded image data can be manually discarded by calling the flush method on the returned Image
.
This method first checks if there is a security manager installed. If so, the method calls the security manager'scheckRead
method with the file specified to ensure that the access to the image is allowed.
Parameters:
filename
- the name of a file containing pixel data in a recognized file format.
Returns:
an image which gets its pixel data from the specified file.
Throws:
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")
- if a security manager exists and its checkRead method doesn't allow the operation.
See Also:
getImage
public abstract Image getImage(URL url)
Returns an image which gets pixel data from the specified URL. The pixel data referenced by the specified URL must be in one of the following formats: GIF, JPEG or PNG. The underlying toolkit attempts to resolve multiple requests with the same URL to the same returned Image.
Since the mechanism required to facilitate this sharing ofImage
objects may continue to hold onto images that are no longer in use for an indefinite period of time, developers are encouraged to implement their own caching of images by using the createImage variant wherever available. If the image data stored at the specified URL changes, the Image
object returned from this method may still contain stale information which was fetched from the URL after a prior call. Previously loaded image data can be manually discarded by calling the flush method on the returned Image
.
This method first checks if there is a security manager installed. If so, the method calls the security manager'scheckPermission
method with the url.openConnection().getPermission() permission to ensure that the access to the image is allowed. For compatibility with pre-1.2 security managers, if the access is denied withFilePermission
or SocketPermission
, the method throws the SecurityException
if the corresponding 1.1-style SecurityManager.checkXXX method also denies permission.
Parameters:
url
- the URL to use in fetching the pixel data.
Returns:
an image which gets its pixel data from the specified URL.
Throws:
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")
- if a security manager exists and its checkPermission method doesn't allow the operation.
See Also:
createImage
public abstract Image createImage(String filename)
Returns an image which gets pixel data from the specified file. The returned Image is a new object which will not be shared with any other caller of this method or its getImage variant.
This method first checks if there is a security manager installed. If so, the method calls the security manager'scheckRead
method with the specified file to ensure that the image creation is allowed.
Parameters:
filename
- the name of a file containing pixel data in a recognized file format.
Returns:
an image which gets its pixel data from the specified file.
Throws:

Prepares an image for rendering.
If the values of the width and height arguments are both-1
, this method prepares the image for rendering on the default screen; otherwise, this method prepares an image for rendering on the default screen at the specified width and height.
The image data is downloaded asynchronously in another thread, and an appropriately scaled screen representation of the image is generated.
This method is called by components prepareImage
methods.
Information on the flags returned by this method can be found with the definition of the ImageObserver
interface.
Parameters:
image
- the image for which to prepare a screen representation.
width
- the width of the desired screen representation, or -1
.
height

getPrintJob
public abstract PrintJob getPrintJob(Frame frame, String jobtitle, Properties props)
Gets a PrintJob
object which is the result of initiating a print operation on the toolkit's platform.
Each actual implementation of this method should first check if there is a security manager installed. If there is, the method should call the security manager's checkPrintJobAccess
method to ensure initiation of a print operation is allowed. If the default implementation of checkPrintJobAccess
is used (that is, that method is not overriden), then this results in a call to the security manager's checkPermission
method with a RuntimePermission("queuePrintJob")
permission.
Parameters:
frame
- the parent of the print dialog. May not be null.
jobtitle
- the title of the PrintJob. A null title is equivalent to "".
props
- a Properties object containing zero or more properties. Properties are not standardized and are not consistent across implementations. Because of this, PrintJobs which require job and page control should use the version of this function which takes JobAttributes and PageAttributes objects. This object may be updated to reflect the user's job choices on exit. May be null.
Returns:
a PrintJob
object, or null
if the user cancelled the print job.
Throws:
[NullPointerException](../../java/lang/NullPointerException.html "class in java.lang")
- if frame is null. This exception is always thrown when GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless() returns true.
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")

getPrintJob
public PrintJob getPrintJob(Frame frame, String jobtitle, JobAttributes jobAttributes, PageAttributes pageAttributes)
Gets a PrintJob
object which is the result of initiating a print operation on the toolkit's platform.
Each actual implementation of this method should first check if there is a security manager installed. If there is, the method should call the security manager's checkPrintJobAccess
method to ensure initiation of a print operation is allowed. If the default implementation of checkPrintJobAccess
is used (that is, that method is not overriden), then this results in a call to the security manager's checkPermission
method with a RuntimePermission("queuePrintJob")
permission.
Parameters:
frame
- the parent of the print dialog. May be null if and only if jobAttributes is not null and jobAttributes.getDialog() returns JobAttributes.DialogType.NONE or JobAttributes.DialogType.COMMON.
jobtitle
- the title of the PrintJob. A null title is equivalent to "".
jobAttributes
- a set of job attributes which will control the PrintJob. The attributes will be updated to reflect the user's choices as outlined in the JobAttributes documentation. May be null.
pageAttributes
- a set of page attributes which will control the PrintJob. The attributes will be applied to every page in the job. The attributes will be updated to reflect the user's choices as outlined in the PageAttributes documentation. May be null.
Returns:
a PrintJob
object, or null
if the user cancelled the print job.
Throws:
[NullPointerException](../../java/lang/NullPointerException.html "class in java.lang")
- if frame is null and either jobAttributes is null or jobAttributes.getDialog() returns JobAttributes.DialogType.NATIVE.
[IllegalArgumentException](../../java/lang/IllegalArgumentException.html "class in java.lang")
- if pageAttributes specifies differing cross feed and feed resolutions. Also if this thread has access to the file system and jobAttributes specifies print to file, and the specified destination file exists but is a directory rather than a regular file, does not exist but cannot be created, or cannot be opened for any other reason. However in the case of print to file, if a dialog is also requested to be displayed then the user will be given an opportunity to select a file and proceed with printing. The dialog will ensure that the selected output file is valid before returning from this method.
This exception is always thrown when GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless() returns true.
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")
- if this thread is not allowed to initiate a print job request, or if jobAttributes specifies print to file, and this thread is not allowed to access the file system

getSystemClipboard
public abstract Clipboard getSystemClipboard() throws HeadlessException
Gets the singleton instance of the system Clipboard which interfaces with clipboard facilities provided by the native platform. This clipboard enables data transfer between Java programs and native applications which use native clipboard facilities.
In addition to any and all formats specified in the flavormap.properties file, or other file specified by the AWT.DnD.flavorMapFileURL
Toolkit property, text returned by the system Clipboard's getTransferData()
method is available in the following flavors:
- DataFlavor.stringFlavor
- DataFlavor.plainTextFlavor (deprecated)
As with
java.awt.datatransfer.StringSelection
, if the requested flavor isDataFlavor.plainTextFlavor
, or an equivalent flavor, a Reader is returned. Note: The behavior of the system Clipboard'sgetTransferData()
method forDataFlavor.plainTextFlavor
, and equivalent DataFlavors, is inconsistent with the definition ofDataFlavor.plainTextFlavor
. Because of this, support forDataFlavor.plainTextFlavor
, and equivalent flavors, isdeprecated.
Each actual implementation of this method should first check if there is a security manager installed. If there is, the method should call the security manager's checkSystemClipboardAccess
method to ensure it's ok to to access the system clipboard. If the default implementation of checkSystemClipboardAccess
is used (that is, that method is not overriden), then this results in a call to the security manager's checkPermission
method with an AWTPermission("accessClipboard")
permission.
Returns:
the system Clipboard
Throws:
[HeadlessException](../../java/awt/HeadlessException.html "class in java.awt")
- if GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless() returns true
Since:
JDK1.1

getSystemSelection
public Clipboard getSystemSelection() throws HeadlessException
Gets the singleton instance of the system selection as aClipboard
object. This allows an application to read and modify the current, system-wide selection.
An application is responsible for updating the system selection whenever the user selects text, using either the mouse or the keyboard. Typically, this is implemented by installing aFocusListener
on all Component
s which support text selection, and, between FOCUS_GAINED
andFOCUS_LOST
events delivered to that Component
, updating the system selection Clipboard
when the selection changes inside the Component
. Properly updating the system selection ensures that a Java application will interact correctly with native applications and other Java applications running simultaneously on the system. Note that java.awt.TextComponent
andjavax.swing.text.JTextComponent
already adhere to this policy. When using these classes, and their subclasses, developers need not write any additional code.
Some platforms do not support a system selection Clipboard
. On those platforms, this method will return null
. In such a case, an application is absolved from its responsibility to update the system selection Clipboard
as described above.
Each actual implementation of this method should first check if there is a SecurityManager
installed. If there is, the method should call the SecurityManager
'scheckSystemClipboardAccess
method to ensure that client code has access the system selection. If the default implementation ofcheckSystemClipboardAccess
is used (that is, if the method is not overridden), then this results in a call to theSecurityManager
's checkPermission
method with an AWTPermission("accessClipboard")
permission.
Returns:
the system selection as a Clipboard
, ornull
if the native platform does not support a system selection Clipboard
Throws:
[HeadlessException](../../java/awt/HeadlessException.html "class in java.awt")

getMenuShortcutKeyMask
public int getMenuShortcutKeyMask() throws HeadlessException
Determines which modifier key is the appropriate accelerator key for menu shortcuts.
Menu shortcuts, which are embodied in theMenuShortcut
class, are handled by theMenuBar
class.
By default, this method returns Event.CTRL_MASK
. Toolkit implementations should override this method if theControl key isn't the correct key for accelerators.
Returns:
the modifier mask on the Event
class that is used for menu shortcuts on this toolkit.
Throws:

public void setLockingKeyState(int keyCode, boolean on) throws UnsupportedOperationException
Sets the state of the given locking key on the keyboard. Valid key codes areVK_CAPS_LOCK,VK_NUM_LOCK,VK_SCROLL_LOCK, andVK_KANA_LOCK.
Depending on the platform, setting the state of a locking key may involve event processing and therefore may not be immediately observable through getLockingKeyState.
Throws:

Give native peers the ability to query the native container given a native component (eg the direct parent may be lightweight).
createCustomCursor
public Cursor createCustomCursor(Image cursor, Point hotSpot, String name) throws IndexOutOfBoundsException, HeadlessException
Creates a new custom cursor object. If the image to display is invalid, the cursor will be hidden (made completely transparent), and the hotspot will be set to (0, 0).
Note that multi-frame images are invalid and may cause this method to hang.
Parameters:
cursor
- the image to display when the cursor is actived
hotSpot
- the X and Y of the large cursor's hot spot; the hotSpot values must be less than the Dimension returned bygetBestCursorSize
name
- a localized description of the cursor, for Java Accessibility use
Throws:
[IndexOutOfBoundsException](../../java/lang/IndexOutOfBoundsException.html "class in java.lang")
- if the hotSpot values are outside the bounds of the cursor

getBestCursorSize
public Dimension getBestCursorSize(int preferredWidth, int preferredHeight) throws HeadlessException
Returns the supported cursor dimension which is closest to the desired sizes. Systems which only support a single cursor size will return that size regardless of the desired sizes. Systems which don't support custom cursors will return a dimension of 0, 0.
Note: if an image is used whose dimensions don't match a supported size (as returned by this method), the Toolkit implementation will attempt to resize the image to a supported size. Since converting low-resolution images is difficult, no guarantees are made as to the quality of a cursor image which isn't a supported size. It is therefore recommended that this method be called and an appropriate image used so no image conversion is made.
Parameters:
preferredWidth
- the preferred cursor width the component would like to use.
preferredHeight
- the preferred cursor height the component would like to use.
Returns:
the closest matching supported cursor size, or a dimension of 0,0 if the Toolkit implementation doesn't support custom cursors.
Throws:

getMaximumCursorColors
public int getMaximumCursorColors() throws HeadlessException
Returns the maximum number of colors the Toolkit supports in a custom cursor palette.
Note: if an image is used which has more colors in its palette than the supported maximum, the Toolkit implementation will attempt to flatten the palette to the maximum. Since converting low-resolution images is difficult, no guarantees are made as to the quality of a cursor image which has more colors than the system supports. It is therefore recommended that this method be called and an appropriate image used so no image conversion is made.
Returns:
the maximum number of colors, or zero if custom cursors are not supported by this Toolkit implementation.
Throws:
[HeadlessException](../../java/awt/HeadlessException.html "class in java.awt")
- if GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless() returns true
Since:
1.2
See Also:
GraphicsEnvironment.isHeadless()
isFrameStateSupported
public boolean isFrameStateSupported(int state) throws HeadlessException
Returns whether Toolkit supports this state forFrame
s. This method tells whether the UI concept of, say, maximization or iconification is supported. It will always return false for "compound" states like Frame.ICONIFIED|Frame.MAXIMIZED_VERT
. In other words, the rule of thumb is that only queries with a single frame state constant as an argument are meaningful.
Parameters:
state
- one of named frame state constants.
Returns:
true
is this frame state is supported by this Toolkit implementation, false
otherwise.
Throws:
[HeadlessException](../../java/awt/HeadlessException.html "class in java.awt")

getProperty
public static String getProperty(String key, String defaultValue)
Gets a property with the specified key and default. This method returns defaultValue if the property is not found.
getSystemEventQueue
public final EventQueue getSystemEventQueue()
Get the application's or applet's EventQueue instance. Depending on the Toolkit implementation, different EventQueues may be returned for different applets. Applets should therefore not assume that the EventQueue instance returned by this method will be shared by other applets or the system.
First, if there is a security manager, its checkAwtEventQueueAccess
method is called. If the default implementation of checkAwtEventQueueAccess
is used (that is, that method is not overriden), then this results in a call to the security manager's checkPermission
method with an AWTPermission("accessEventQueue")
permission.
Returns:
the EventQueue
object
Throws:
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")
- if a security manager exists and its [SecurityManager.checkAwtEventQueueAccess()](../../java/lang/SecurityManager.html#checkAwtEventQueueAccess%28%29)

addAWTEventListener
public void addAWTEventListener(AWTEventListener listener, long eventMask)
Adds an AWTEventListener to receive all AWTEvents dispatched system-wide that conform to the given eventMask
.
First, if there is a security manager, its checkPermission
method is called with an AWTPermission("listenToAllAWTEvents")
permission. This may result in a SecurityException.
eventMask
is a bitmask of event types to receive. It is constructed by bitwise OR-ing together the event masks defined in AWTEvent
.
Note: event listener use is not recommended for normal application use, but are intended solely to support special purpose facilities including support for accessibility, event record/playback, and diagnostic tracing. If listener is null, no exception is thrown and no action is performed.
Parameters:
listener
- the event listener.
eventMask
- the bitmask of event types to receive
Throws:
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")
- if a security manager exists and its checkPermission
method doesn't allow the operation.
Since:
1.2

removeAWTEventListener
public void removeAWTEventListener(AWTEventListener listener)
Removes an AWTEventListener from receiving dispatched AWTEvents.
First, if there is a security manager, its checkPermission
method is called with an AWTPermission("listenToAllAWTEvents")
permission. This may result in a SecurityException.
Note: event listener use is not recommended for normal application use, but are intended solely to support special purpose facilities including support for accessibility, event record/playback, and diagnostic tracing. If listener is null, no exception is thrown and no action is performed.
Parameters:
listener
- the event listener.
Throws:
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")
- if a security manager exists and its checkPermission
method doesn't allow the operation.

getAWTEventListeners
public AWTEventListener[] getAWTEventListeners()
Returns an array of all the AWTEventListener
s registered on this toolkit. If there is a security manager, its checkPermission
method is called with an AWTPermission("listenToAllAWTEvents")
permission. This may result in a SecurityException. Listeners can be returned within AWTEventListenerProxy
objects, which also contain the event mask for the given listener. Note that listener objects added multiple times appear only once in the returned array.
Returns:
all of the AWTEventListener
s or an empty array if no listeners are currently registered
Throws:
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")
- if a security manager exists and its checkPermission
method doesn't allow the operation.

getAWTEventListeners
public AWTEventListener[] getAWTEventListeners(long eventMask)
Returns an array of all the AWTEventListener
s registered on this toolkit which listen to all of the event types specified in the eventMask
argument. If there is a security manager, its checkPermission
method is called with an AWTPermission("listenToAllAWTEvents")
permission. This may result in a SecurityException. Listeners can be returned within AWTEventListenerProxy
objects, which also contain the event mask for the given listener. Note that listener objects added multiple times appear only once in the returned array.
Parameters:
eventMask
- the bitmask of event types to listen for
Returns:
all of the AWTEventListener
s registered on this toolkit for the specified event types, or an empty array if no such listeners are currently registered
Throws:
[SecurityException](../../java/lang/SecurityException.html "class in java.lang")
- if a security manager exists and its checkPermission
