pack-privatefinal void detachDispatchThread ()

protected void dispatchEvent (AWTEvent event)

Dispatches an event.

Dispatches an event. The manner in which the event is dispatched depends upon the type of the event and the type of the event's source object:

Event Type	Source Type	Dispatched To
ActiveEvent	Any	event.dispatch()
Other	Component	source.dispatchEvent(AWTEvent)
Other	MenuComponent	source.dispatchEvent(AWTEvent)
Other	Other	No action (ignored)

Parameters:
- event - an instance of java.awt.AWTEvent, or a subclass of it
Throws:
- NullPointerException - if event is null
Since: 1.2

publicstatic AWTEvent getCurrentEvent ()

Returns the the event currently being dispatched by the EventQueue associated with the calling thread.

Returns the the event currently being dispatched by the
EventQueue associated with the calling thread. This is
useful if a method needs access to the event, but was not designed to
receive a reference to it as an argument. Note that this method should
only be invoked from an application's event dispatching thread. If this
method is invoked from another thread, null will be returned.
Returns: the event currently being dispatched, or null if this method is invoked on a thread other than an event dispatching thread
Since: 1.4

pack-privatefinal EventDispatchThread getDispatchThread ()

publicstatic long getMostRecentEventTime ()

Returns the timestamp of the most recent event that had a timestamp, and that was dispatched from the EventQueue associated with the calling thread.

Returns the timestamp of the most recent event that had a timestamp, and
that was dispatched from the EventQueue associated with the
calling thread. If an event with a timestamp is currently being
dispatched, its timestamp will be returned. If no events have yet
been dispatched, the EventQueue's initialization time will be
returned instead.In the current version of
the JDK, only InputEvents,
ActionEvents, and InvocationEvents have
timestamps; however, future versions of the JDK may add timestamps to
additional event types. Note that this method should only be invoked
from an application's event dispatching thread. If this method is
invoked from another thread, the current system time (as reported by
System.currentTimeMillis()) will be returned instead.
Returns: the timestamp of the last InputEvent, ActionEvent, or InvocationEvent to be dispatched, or System.currentTimeMillis() if this method is invoked on a thread other than an event dispatching thread
Since: 1.4

public AWTEvent getNextEvent () throws InterruptedException

Removes an event from the EventQueue and returns it.

Removes an event from the EventQueue and
returns it. This method will block until an event has
been posted by another thread.
Returns: the next AWTEvent
Throws:
- InterruptedException - if any thread has interrupted this thread

pack-private AWTEvent getNextEvent (int id) throws InterruptedException

pack-privatefinal void initDispatchThread ()

publicstatic void invokeAndWait (Runnable runnable) throws InterruptedException InvocationTargetException

Causes runnable to have its run method called in the dispatch thread of the system EventQueue.

Causes runnable to have its run
method called in the dispatch thread of
the system EventQueue.
This will happen after all pending events are processed.
The call blocks until this has happened. This method
will throw an Error if called from the event dispatcher thread.
Parameters:
- runnable - the Runnable whose run method should be executed synchronously on the EventQueue
Throws:
- InterruptedException - if any thread has interrupted this thread
- InvocationTargetException - if an throwable is thrown when running runnable
Since: 1.2
See Also: EventQueue.invokeLater(java.lang.Runnable),

publicstatic void invokeLater (Runnable runnable)

Causes runnable to have its run method called in the dispatch thread of the system EventQueue.

Causes runnable to have its run
method called in the dispatch thread of
the system EventQueue.
This will happen after all pending events are processed.
Parameters:
- runnable - the Runnable whose run method should be executed synchronously on the EventQueue
Since: 1.2
See Also: EventQueue.invokeAndWait(java.lang.Runnable),

publicstatic boolean isDispatchThread ()

Returns true if the calling thread is the current AWT EventQueue's dispatch thread.

Returns true if the calling thread is the current AWT
EventQueue's dispatch thread. Use this
call the ensure that a given
task is being executed (or not being) on the current AWT
EventDispatchThread.
Returns: true if running on the current AWT EventQueue's dispatch thread
Since: 1.2

publicsynchronized AWTEvent peekEvent ()

Returns the first event on the EventQueue without removing it.

Returns the first event on the EventQueue
without removing it.
Returns: the first event

publicsynchronized AWTEvent peekEvent (int id)

Returns the first event with the specified id, if any.

Returns the first event with the specified id, if any.
Returns: the first event of the specified id or null if there is no such event
Parameters:
- id - the id of the type of event desired

protected void pop () throws EmptyStackException

Stops dispatching events using this EventQueue.

Stops dispatching events using this EventQueue. Any pending events are transferred to the previous EventQueue for processing.

Warning: To avoid deadlock, do not declare this method synchronized in a subclass.
Throws:
- EmptyStackException - if no previous push was made on this EventQueue
Since: 1.2
See Also: EventQueue.push(java.awt.EventQueue),

public void postEvent (AWTEvent theEvent)

Posts a 1.1-style event to the EventQueue.

Posts a 1.1-style event to the EventQueue.
If there is an existing event on the queue with the same ID
and event source, the source Component's
coalesceEvents method will be called.
Parameters:
- theEvent - an instance of java.awt.AWTEvent, or a subclass of it
Throws:
- NullPointerException - if theEvent is null

pack-privatefinal void postEventPrivate (AWTEvent theEvent)

Posts a 1.1-style event to the EventQueue.

Posts a 1.1-style event to the EventQueue.
If there is an existing event on the queue with the same ID
and event source, the source Component's
coalesceEvents method will be called.
Parameters:
- theEvent - an instance of java.awt.AWTEvent, or a subclass of it

publicsynchronized void push (EventQueue newEventQueue)

Replaces the existing EventQueue with the specified one.

Replaces the existing EventQueue with the specified one.
Any pending events are transferred to the new EventQueue
for processing by it.
Parameters:
- newEventQueue - an EventQueue (or subclass thereof) instance to be use
Throws:
- NullPointerException - if newEventQueue is null
Since: 1.2
