Interface SurfaceUI

All Superinterfaces:

Surface, SurfaceWrapper

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractSurfaceUI, SurfaceUIFactory.SurfaceUIImpl

public interface SurfaceUI
extends Surface, SurfaceWrapper

The SurfaceUI interface is implemented by classes that represent a Surface object that can be used in an application with a user interface.

Method Summary

void	draw(Graphics g, Camera camera) Draws a simple representation of the Surface represented by this SurfaceUI object on the specified Graphics object using the viewing settings of the specified Camera object.
Dialog	getDialog() Returns a Dialog object that can be used to specify extra information about this SurfaceUI object, or null if no such dialog is required.
Icon	getIcon()
String	getName() Returns the name of this SurfaceUI object as a String object.
String	getType() Returns the name of the type of surface that this SurfaceUI object represents as a String object.
boolean	hasDialog() Returns true if extra information about this SurfaceUI object can be specified through a dialog, false otherwise.
void	setName(String name) Sets the name of this SurfaceUI object to the name specified.
