public java.lang.Object getComponent(CustomAttributeEditorEnvironment environment)

environment - The environment with information about where the editor will be used.

Returns:

an instance of Component to be used as an editor.

showEditor

public void showEditor(CustomAttributeEditorEnvironment environment)

Description copied from interface: CustomAttributeEditor

This method will be invoked to initiate the editing process. For all those editors which are standalone this call is useful to open the frame, window,dialog or whatever is used to realize the editor. This method has to be synchronous, so that the method will return after editing is completely finished.

Specified by:

showEditor in interface CustomAttributeEditor

Parameters:

environment - The environment with information about where the editor will be used.

wasCanceled

public boolean wasCanceled()

Description copied from interface: CustomAttributeEditor

Specified by:

wasCanceled in interface CustomAttributeEditor

Returns:

true, if the editor was canceled.
