BasicComponentFinder

protected BasicComponentFinder(ComponentHierarchy hierarchy,
 Settings settings)

Creates a new BasicComponentFinder.

hierarchy - the component hierarchy to use.

settings - the configuration settings to use. It can be null.

Method Details

finderWithNewAwtHierarchy

public static ComponentFinder finderWithNewAwtHierarchy()

Creates a new BasicComponentFinder with a new AWT hierarchy. Components created before the created BasicComponentFinder cannot be accessed by the created BasicComponentFinder.

public ComponentPrinter printer()

Returns the ComponentPrinter in this finder.

Specified by:

printer in interface ComponentFinder

Returns:

the ComponentPrinter in this finder.

findByType

public <T extends Component> T findByType(Class<T> type)

Finds a Component by type. If this finder is attached to a Robot, it will use the component lookup scope in the Robot's Settings to determine whether the component to find should be showing or not. If this finder is not attached to any Robot, the component to find does not have to be showing.

Example:

 JTextField textbox = finder.findByType(JTextField.class);
 

Specified by:

findByType in interface ComponentFinder

Type Parameters:

T - the parameterized type of the component to find.

Parameters:

type - the type of the component to find.

Returns:

the found component.

See Also:

• Robot.settings()
• Settings.componentLookupScope()
• ComponentLookupScope

findByType

@RunsInEDT
public <T extends Component> T findByType(Class<T> type,
 boolean showing)

Finds a Component by type. For example:

Specified by:

findByType in interface ComponentFinder

Type Parameters:

• ComponentFinder.findByType(Class)

findByType

@RunsInEDT
public <T extends Component> T findByType(Container root,
 Class<T> type)

Finds a Component by type in the hierarchy under the given root. If this finder is attached to a Robot, it will use the component lookup scope in the Robot's Settings to determine whether the component to find should be showing or not. If this finder is not attached to any Robot, the component to find does not have to be showing.

Let's assume we have the following JFrame containing a JTextField:

 JFrame myFrame = new JFrame();
 myFrame.add(new JTextField());
 

If we want to get a reference to the JTextField in that particular JFrame without going through the whole AWT component hierarchy, we could simply specify:

 JTextField textbox = finder.findByType(myFrame, JTextField.class);
 

Specified by:

findByType in interface ComponentFinder

Type Parameters:

T - the parameterized type of the component to find.

Parameters:

root - the root used as the starting point of the search.

type - the type of the component to find.

Returns:

the found component.
