Interface Summary

Interface	Description
AppDc	A AppDc enhances the basic Dc interface with support for AppEvent's and serves as a dialog coordinator for any number of DialogDc objects.
AppPc	A AppPc enhances the basic Pc interface with support for AppEvent's and an enhanced life cycle.
DialogApplication	A DialogApplication enhances the basic Application interface with support for AppEvent's and a more complex dialog management.
DialogDc	A DialogDc enhances the basic Dc interface with a more powerful dialog lifecycle and support for AppEvent's.
DialogManager.DialogCallback	Callback interface for the opening/closing of a dialog.
DialogPc	A DialogPc enhances the basic Pc interface with support for AppEvent's, a standardized interface for a DialogDc to get the visual presentation for the dialog and a dispose() method for an enhanced lifecycle.
Disposable	The Disposable interface describes a part of a more complex lifecycle, and is used to encapsulate the common life cycle of AppDc, AppPc, DialogDc and DialogPc.
SimpleLifeCycle	The SimpleLifeCycle interface describes a part of a more complex lifecycle, and is used to encapsulate the common life cycle of AppDc and DialogDc.

Class Summary

Class	Description
AbstractAppDc	The AbstractAppDc implements the common stuff (AppEvent handling) of the AppDc interface.
AbstractDialogDc	The AbstractDialogDc implements the common stuff (AppEvent handling, canPassivate check) of the DialogDc interface.
AbstractDialogPc	The AbstractDialogPc implements the common stuff (AppEvent handling) of the DialogPc interface.
BlockEvent	A BlockEvent is used to by a Dc/Pc to signal "the user should not make any further input".
CloseDialogEvent	A CloseDialogEvent signals that a dialog should be closed.
DialogDescription	Small helper class that stores the meta data about a dialog.

Package net.sf.cuf.fw2 Description

This package contains a "medium" sized framework for structuring a Java Swing or JavaFX client, and is based on the interfaces in the net.sf.cuf.fw package. The following stuff was added:

• advanced lifecycle (see SimpleLifeCycle for details)
• integration of the AppEvent library; the chain of responsibility is model from a presentation component to its dialog component and from the dialog component up to its parent dialog component or the application object.
• typical tasks (like a dialog depending menu/toolbar, a status bar, ...) are supported via special AppEvent's (see MenuToolBarEvent, BlockEvent, ShowStatusEvent for details)
