Method Detail

copyToClipboard

public static void copyToClipboard(String s)

Copies the given string to the system clipboard.

Parameters:

withConsoleProgressBar

public static <E> E withConsoleProgressBar(int width,
                                           PrintStream strm,
                                           ProgressBarWorker<E> worker)
                                    throws Exception

Execute some expensive work and track its progress with a progress bar on the console. Unlike withProgressBar(java.awt.Frame, java.lang.String, java.lang.String, de.up.ling.irtg.util.ProgressBarWorker, de.up.ling.irtg.util.ValueAndTimeConsumer), the work is performed on the same thread from which the method is called, because this is the typical usecase in a console setting.

Type Parameters:

E -

Parameters:

width -

strm -

worker -

Returns:

Throws:

Exception

withProgressBar

public static <E> void withProgressBar(Frame parent,
                                       String title,
                                       String description,
                                       ProgressBarWorker<E> worker,
                                       ValueAndTimeConsumer<E> andThen)

Execute this on the EDT.

Type Parameters:

E -

Parameters:

parent -

title -

description -

worker -

andThen -

bringToFront

public static void bringToFront(Frame comp)

showError

public static void showError(Component parent,
                             String error)

showError

public static void showError(Throwable error)

getGlobalListener

public static ProgressListener getGlobalListener()

setGlobalListener

public static void setGlobalListener(ProgressListener globalListener)

Sets the global ProgressListener. The preferred method of giving a progress listener to a worker is to pass it as a method argument. This method is only here for cases when this would mess up the code to a terrible extent. You should avoid it whenever possible.

addDebuggingFocusListener

public static void addDebuggingFocusListener(Component comp)

replaceMetaByCtrl

public static void replaceMetaByCtrl(JMenuBar mb)

Replaces the Meta keymask in all menus of this menu bar by Ctrl. Useful if the menu accelerators were defined for Mac, but should be mapped to Ctrl-based accelerators for Windows or Linux.

Parameters:

mb -
