  Creates a copy of the DefaultFormatter.
Returns: copy of the DefaultFormatter

Invokes commitEdit on the JFormattedTextField.

  Returns whether or not the value being edited is allowed to be invalid for a length of time.

  Returns whether or not the value being edited is allowed to be invalid
for a length of time.
Returns: false if the edited value must always be valid

  Returns when edits are published back to the JFormattedTextField.

  Returns when edits are published back to the
JFormattedTextField.
Returns: true if edits are commited after evey valid edit

  Returns the DocumentFilter used to restrict the characters that can be input into the JFormattedTextField.

  Returns the DocumentFilter used to restrict the characters
that can be input into the JFormattedTextField.
Returns: DocumentFilter to restrict edits

  Returns the initial location to position the cursor at.

  Returns the initial location to position the cursor at. This forwards
the call to getNextNavigatableChar.

  Returns the NavigationFilter used to restrict where the cursor can be placed.

  Returns the NavigationFilter used to restrict where the
cursor can be placed.
Returns: NavigationFilter to restrict navigation

  Returns the next cursor position from offset by incrementing direction.

  Returns the next cursor position from offset by incrementing
direction. This uses
getNextNavigatableChar
as well as constraining the location to the max position.

Finds the next navigatable character.

  Returns the behavior when inserting characters.

  Returns the behavior when inserting characters.
Returns: true if newly inserted characters overwrite existing characters

Returns the ReplaceHolder to track the replace of the specified text.

A convenience methods to return the result of deleting deleteLength characters at offset and inserting replaceString at offset in the current text field.

  Returns that class that is used to create new Objects.

  Returns that class that is used to create new Objects.
Returns: Class used to constuct return value from stringToValue

  Installs the DefaultFormatter onto a particular JFormattedTextField.

  Installs the DefaultFormatter onto a particular JFormattedTextField. This will invoke valueToString to convert the current value from the JFormattedTextField to a String. This will then install the Actions from getActions, the DocumentFilter returned from getDocumentFilter and the NavigationFilter returned from getNavigationFilter onto the JFormattedTextField.

Subclasses will typically only need to override this if they wish to install additional listeners on the JFormattedTextField.

If there is a ParseException in converting the current value to a String, this will set the text to an empty String, and mark the JFormattedTextField as being in an invalid state.

While this is a public method, this is typically only useful for subclassers of JFormattedTextField. JFormattedTextField will invoke this method at the appropriate times when the value changes, or its internal state changes.
Parameters:
- ftf - JFormattedTextField to format for, may be null indicating uninstall from current JFormattedTextField.

  Returns true if the text in text can be inserted.

  Returns true if the text in text can be inserted. This
does not mean the text will ultimately be inserted, it is used if
text can trivially reject certain characters.

  Subclasses should override this if they want cursor navigation to skip certain characters.

  Subclasses should override this if they want cursor navigation
to skip certain characters. A return value of false indicates
the character at offset should be skipped when
navigating throught the field.

NavigationFilter method, subclasses that wish finer control should override this.

Positions the cursor at the initial location.

  If the edit described by rh is legal, this will return true, commit the edit (if necessary) and update the cursor position.

  If the edit described by rh is legal, this will return true, commit the edit (if necessary) and update the cursor position. This forwards to canReplace and isLegalInsertText as necessary to determine if the edit is in fact legal.

All of the DocumentFilter methods funnel into here, you should generally only have to override this.

DocumentFilter method, funnels into replace.

Resets the cursor by using getNextCursorPosition.

  Sets whether or not the value being edited is allowed to be invalid for a length of time (that is, stringToValue throws a ParseException).

  Sets whether or not the value being edited is allowed to be invalid
for a length of time (that is, stringToValue throws
a ParseException).
It is often convenient to allow the user to temporarily input an
invalid value.
Parameters:
- allowsInvalid - Used to indicate if the edited value must always be valid

  Sets when edits are published back to the JFormattedTextField.

  Sets when edits are published back to the
JFormattedTextField. If true, commitEdit
is invoked after every valid edit (any time the text is edited). On
the other hand, if this is false than the DefaultFormatter
does not publish edits back to the JFormattedTextField.
As such, the only time the value of the JFormattedTextField
will change is when commitEdit is invoked on
JFormattedTextField, typically when enter is pressed
or focus leaves the JFormattedTextField.
Parameters:
- commit - Used to indicate when edits are commited back to the JTextComponent

NavigationFilter method, subclasses that wish finer control should override this.

  Configures the behavior when inserting characters.

  Configures the behavior when inserting characters. If
overwriteMode is true (the default), new characters
overwrite existing characters in the model.
Parameters:
- overwriteMode - Indicates if overwrite or overstrike mode is used

  Sets that class that is used to create new Objects.

  Sets that class that is used to create new Objects. If the
passed in class does not have a single argument constructor that
takes a String, String values will be used.
Parameters:
- valueClass - Class used to construct return value from stringToValue

  Converts the passed in String into an instance of getValueClass by way of the constructor that takes a String argument.

  Converts the passed in String into an instance of
getValueClass by way of the constructor that
takes a String argument. If getValueClass
returns null, the Class of the current value in the
JFormattedTextField will be used. If this is null, a
String will be returned. If the constructor thows an exception, a
ParseException will be thrown. If there is no single
argument String constructor, string will be returned.
Returns: Object representation of text
Parameters:
- string - String to convert
Throws:
- ParseException - if there is an error in the conversion

Pushes the value to the JFormattedTextField if the current value is valid and invokes setEditValid based on the validity of the value.

  Pushes the value to the editor if we are to commit on edits.

  Pushes the value to the editor if we are to
commit on edits. If value is null, the current value
will be obtained from the text component.

  Converts the passed in Object into a String by way of the toString method.

  Converts the passed in Object into a String by way of the
toString method.
Returns: String representation of value
Parameters:
- value - Value to convert
Throws:
- ParseException - if there is an error in the conversion
