26 /**
27  * Synth is a skinnable look and feel in which all painting is delegated. Synth
28  * does not provide a default look. In order to use Synth you need to specify a
29  * <a href="doc-files/synthFileFormat.html">file</a>, or provide a
30  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthStyleFactory}. Both configuration options
31  * require an understanding of the synth architecture, which is described below,
32  * as well as an understanding of Swing's architecture.
33  * <p>
34  * Unless otherwise specified null is not a legal value to any of the methods
35  * defined in the synth package and if passed in will result in a
36  * {@code NullPointerException}.
37  *
38  * <h2>Synth</h2>
39  * Each {@link javax.swing.plaf.ComponentUI} implementation in Synth associates
40  * itself with one {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthStyle} per
41  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.Region}, most {@code Components} only have one
42  * {@code Region} and therefor only one {@code SynthStyle}. {@code SynthStyle}
43  * is used to access all style related properties: fonts, colors
44  * and other {@code Component} properties. In addition {@code SynthStyle}s are
45  * used to obtain {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthPainter}s for painting the
46  * background, border, focus and other portions of a {@code Component}. The
47  * {@code ComponentUI}s obtain {@code SynthStyle}s from a
48  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthStyleFactory}. A {@code SynthStyleFactory}
49  * can be provided directly by way of
50  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthLookAndFeel#setStyleFactory(javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthStyleFactory)},
51  * or indirectly by way of {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthLookAndFeel#load}.
52  * The following example uses the {@code SynthLookAndFeel.load()} method to
53  * configure a {@code SynthLookAndFeel} and sets it as the current look and
54  * feel:
55  * <div class="example">
56  * <pre>{@code
57  *     SynthLookAndFeel laf = new SynthLookAndFeel();
58  *     laf.load(MyClass.class.getResourceAsStream("laf.xml"), MyClass.class);
59  *     UIManager.setLookAndFeel(laf);
60  * }</pre>
61  * </div>
62  * <p>
63  * Many {@code JComponent}s are broken down into smaller pieces and identified
64  * by the type safe enumeration in {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.Region}. For
65  * example, a {@code JTabbedPane} consists of a {@code Region} for the
66  * {@code JTabbedPane}({@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.Region#TABBED_PANE}), the
67  * content area ({@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.Region#TABBED_PANE_CONTENT}), the
68  * area behind the tabs
69  * ({@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.Region#TABBED_PANE_TAB_AREA}), and the tabs
70  * ({@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.Region#TABBED_PANE_TAB}). Each
71  * {@code Region} of each {@code JComponent} will have a {@code SynthStyle}.
72  * This allows you to customize individual pieces of each region of each
73  * {@code JComponent}.
74  * <p>
75  * Many of the Synth methods take a {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthContext}.
76  * This is used to provide information about the current {@code Component} and
77  * includes: the {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthStyle} associated with the
78  * current {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.Region}, the state of the
79  * {@code Component} as a bitmask (refer to
80  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthConstants} for the valid states), and a
81  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.Region} identifying the portion of the
82  * {@code Component} being painted.
83  * <p>
84  * All text rendering by non-{@code JTextComponent}s is delegated to a
85  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthGraphicsUtils}, which is obtained using
86  * the {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthStyle} method
87  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthStyle#getGraphicsUtils}. You can customize
88  * text rendering by supplying your own
89  * {@link javax.swing.plaf.synth.SynthGraphicsUtils}.
90  *
91  * <h2>Notes on specific components</h2>
92  * <h3>JTree</h3>
93  * Synth provides a region for the cells of a tree:
94  * {@code Region.TREE_CELL}. To specify the colors of the
95  * renderer you'll want to provide a style for the
96  * {@code TREE_CELL} region. The following illustrates this:
97  * <pre>{@code
98  *   <style id="treeCellStyle">
99  *     <opaque value="TRUE"/>
100  *     <state>
101  *       <color value="WHITE" type="TEXT_FOREGROUND"/>
102  *       <color value="RED" type="TEXT_BACKGROUND"/>
103  *     </state>
104  *     <state value="SELECTED">
105  *       <color value="RED" type="TEXT_FOREGROUND"/>
106  *       <color value="WHITE" type="BACKGROUND"/>
107  *     </state>
108  *   </style>
109  *   <bind style="treeCellStyle" type="region" key="TreeCell"/>
110  * }</pre>
111  * <p>
112  * This specifies a color combination of red on white, when selected, and white
113  * on red when not selected. To see the background you need to specify that
114  * labels are not opaque. The following XML fragment does that:
115  * <pre>{@code
116  *   <style id="labelStyle">
117  *     <opaque value="FALSE"/>
118  *   </style>
119  *   <bind style="labelStyle" type="region" key="Label"/>
120  * }</pre>
121  *
122  * <h3>JList and JTable</h3>
123  * The colors that the renderers for JList and JTable use are specified by way
124  * of the list and table Regions. The following XML fragment illustrates how to
125  * specify red on white, when selected, and white on red when not selected:
126  * <pre>{@code
127  *   <style id="style">
128  *     <opaque value="TRUE"/>
129  *     <state>
130  *       <color value="WHITE" type="TEXT_FOREGROUND"/>
131  *       <color value="RED" type="TEXT_BACKGROUND"/>
132  *       <color value="RED" type="BACKGROUND"/>
133  *     </state>
134  *     <state value="SELECTED">
135  *       <color value="RED" type="TEXT_FOREGROUND"/>
136  *       <color value="WHITE" type="TEXT_BACKGROUND"/>
137  *     </state>
138  *   </style>
139  *   <bind style="style" type="region" key="Table"/>
140  *   <bind style="style" type="region" key="List"/>
141  * }</pre>
