Class ProportionalListReportDirectly

java.lang.Object

de.must.appletserver.RemotePrint

de.must.appletserver.ProportionalListReportDirectly

All Implemented Interfaces:

AppTextResource, Controllable, ProportionalListReport

public abstract class ProportionalListReportDirectly
extends RemotePrint
implements ProportionalListReport

Direct print implementation of the report interface for lists with proportional column definition. This is a way of printing by a view lines of code as done in de.must.samples.PrintDirectlySample. Word wrap of continuous text is supported as well as table printing. The paradigm of this sample is - back to the roots: Don't call me, I'll call you. This means e.g., I read some database tables, compute some stuff and put it out in the sequence as I am used to. The result is buffered, at the moment in Vectors. After that the result is provided in a sequence, the renderer (printer) wants to retrieve it (e.g. page 1, page 2, again page 1).

Method Detail

start

public void start(ToAppletWriter out)

isToRun

public boolean isToRun()

getPrinterJobName

public abstract java.lang.String getPrinterJobName()

setConstantItems

public void setConstantItems(boolean constantItems)

Determines whether or not the following items should be printed on each page. Useful for headers and table headers. If page header contains variable data (e.g. group fields), override fillPageHeader instead of switching on constant items.

Parameters:

constantItems - whether or not the following items should be printed on each page

setOnPageInfo

public void setOnPageInfo()

Activates automatic printing of page information at the standard place.

setPageInfoPosition

public void setPageInfoPosition(java.awt.Point pageInfoPosition)

Sets the position where page number information is to be placed.

Parameters:

pageInfoPosition - the ending position of the page information

setDefaultProportion

public void setDefaultProportion(int[] columnProportion)

Sets the column default proportion to influence column width.

Specified by:

setDefaultProportion in interface ProportionalListReport

Parameters:

columnProportion - the proportion usually to be used

setAlignment

protected void setAlignment(int columnIndex,
                            int alignType)

Sets the alignment of a specific column.

Parameters:

columnIndex - the index of the regarded column

alignType - the align type of the specified column

See Also:

ProportionalListReport.ALIGN_LEFT, ProportionalListReport.ALIGN_CENTER, ProportionalListReport.ALIGN_RIGHT

setFont

protected void setFont(FontSpecification newFont)

Overrides:

setFont in class RemotePrint

resetFont

protected void resetFont()

Overrides:

resetFont in class RemotePrint

getDefaultFont

protected FontSpecification getDefaultFont()

add

protected PrintablePage.PrintPosition add(java.lang.String paragraph)

Adds a paragraph. Word wrap is automatically done.

Parameters:

paragraph - the paragraph to be printed

Returns:

the print position of the last line

addTitle

public void addTitle(java.lang.String title)

Adds a title (with special font.

Parameters:

title - the title to be added

addTableHeader

protected PrintablePage.PrintPosition addTableHeader(java.lang.String[] headerValues)

Adds a row of values with meaning table header.

Parameters:

headerValues - the table header values

Returns:

the current print position

addHLine

protected void addHLine()

Adds a horizontal line.

add

protected PrintablePage.PrintPosition add(java.util.Vector<java.lang.String> columnValues)

Adds a table row to the current page.

Overrides:

getTranslation in class RemotePrint

Parameters:

resourceKey - the key of the resource to retrieve

fillList

protected abstract void fillList()

Called when print is called the first time, therefore Graphics is known. Thus, all positions may be computed. Put all your instructions to print (like add...) inside this method. Call start() to start thread in order to trigger fillList() to be called.

Specified by:

addThreadDoneListener in interface Controllable

ThreadDoneEvent

start

public void start()

Description copied from interface: Controllable

Causes this thread to begin execution; the Java Virtual Machine calls the run method of this thread.

The result is that two threads are running concurrently: the current thread (which returns from the call to the start method) and the other thread (which executes its run method).

Specified by:

start in interface Controllable
