Constructs a new instance of this class given its parent and a style value describing its behavior and appearance. <p> The style value is either one of the style constants defined in class <code>SWT</code> which is applicable to instances of this class, or must be built by <em>bitwise OR</em>'ing together (that is, using the <code>int</code> "|" operator) two or more of those <code>SWT</code> style constants. The class description lists the style constants that are applicable to the class. Style bits are also inherited from superclasses. </p>
Adds the listener to the collection of listeners who will be notified when an item in the receiver is expanded or collapsed by sending it one of the messages defined in the <code>ExpandListener</code> interface.
Returns the item at the given, zero-relative index in the receiver. Throws an exception if the index is out of range.
Returns the number of items contained in the receiver.
Returns an array of <code>ExpandItem</code>s which are the items in the receiver. <p> Note: This is not the actual structure used by the receiver to maintain its list of items, so modifying the array will not affect the receiver. </p>
Returns the receiver's spacing.
Searches the receiver's list starting at the first item (index 0) until an item is found that is equal to the argument, and returns the index of that item. If no item is found, returns -1.
Removes the listener from the collection of listeners who will be notified when items in the receiver are expanded or collapsed.
Sets the receiver's spacing. Spacing specifies the number of pixels allocated around each item.
Clears any data that has been cached by a Layout for all widgets that are in the parent hierarchy of the changed control up to and including the receiver. If an ancestor does not have a layout, it is skipped.
Returns the receiver's background drawing mode. This will be one of the following constants defined in class <code>SWT</code>: <code>INHERIT_NONE</code>, <code>INHERIT_DEFAULT</code>, <code>INHERTIT_FORCE</code>.
Returns a (possibly empty) array containing the receiver's children. Children are returned in the order that they are drawn. The topmost control appears at the beginning of the array. Subsequent controls draw beneath this control and appear later in the array. <p> Note: This is not the actual structure used by the receiver to maintain its list of children, so modifying the array will not affect the receiver. </p>
Returns layout which is associated with the receiver, or null if one has not been set.
Returns <code>true</code> if the receiver has deferred the performing of layout, and <code>false</code> otherwise.
Gets the (possibly empty) tabbing order for the control.
Returns <code>true</code> if the receiver or any ancestor up to and including the receiver's nearest ancestor shell has deferred the performing of layouts. Otherwise, <code>false</code> is returned.
If the receiver has a layout, asks the layout to <em>lay out</em> (that is, set the size and location of) the receiver's children. If the receiver does not have a layout, do nothing. <p> This is equivalent to calling <code>layout(true)</code>. </p> <p> Note: Layout is different from painting. If a child is moved or resized such that an area in the parent is exposed, then the parent will paint. If no child is affected, the parent will not paint. </p>
If the receiver has a layout, asks the layout to <em>lay out</em> (that is, set the size and location of) the receiver's children. If the argument is <code>true</code> the layout must not rely on any information it has cached about the immediate children. If it is <code>false</code> the layout may (potentially) optimize the work it is doing by assuming that none of the receiver's children has changed state since the last layout. If the receiver does not have a layout, do nothing. <p> If a child is resized as a result of a call to layout, the resize event will invoke the layout of the child. The layout will cascade down through all child widgets in the receiver's widget tree until a child is encountered that does not resize. Note that a layout due to a resize will not flush any cached information (same as <code>layout(false)</code>). </p> <p> Note: Layout is different from painting. If a child is moved or resized such that an area in the parent is exposed, then the parent will paint. If no child is affected, the parent will not paint. </p>
If the receiver has a layout, asks the layout to <em>lay out</em> (that is, set the size and location of) the receiver's children. If the changed argument is <code>true</code> the layout must not rely on any information it has cached about its children. If it is <code>false</code> the layout may (potentially) optimize the work it is doing by assuming that none of the receiver's children has changed state since the last layout. If the all argument is <code>true</code> the layout will cascade down through all child widgets in the receiver's widget tree, regardless of whether the child has changed size. The changed argument is applied to all layouts. If the all argument is <code>false</code>, the layout will <em>not</em> cascade down through all child widgets in the receiver's widget tree. However, if a child is resized as a result of a call to layout, the resize event will invoke the layout of the child. Note that a layout due to a resize will not flush any cached information (same as <code>layout(false)</code>). </p> <p> Note: Layout is different from painting. If a child is moved or resized such that an area in the parent is exposed, then the parent will paint. If no child is affected, the parent will not paint. </p>
Forces a lay out (that is, sets the size and location) of all widgets that are in the parent hierarchy of the changed control up to and including the receiver. The layouts in the hierarchy must not rely on any information cached about the changed control or any of its ancestors. The layout may (potentially) optimize the work it is doing by assuming that none of the peers of the changed control have changed state since the last layout. If an ancestor does not have a layout, skip it. <p> Note: Layout is different from painting. If a child is moved or resized such that an area in the parent is exposed, then the parent will paint. If no child is affected, the parent will not paint. </p>
Sets the background drawing mode to the argument which should be one of the following constants defined in class <code>SWT</code>: <code>INHERIT_NONE</code>, <code>INHERIT_DEFAULT</code>, <code>INHERIT_FORCE</code>.
Sets the layout which is associated with the receiver to be the argument which may be null.
If the argument is <code>true</code>, causes subsequent layout operations in the receiver or any of its children to be ignored. No layout of any kind can occur in the receiver or any of its children until the flag is set to false. Layout operations that occurred while the flag was <code>true</code> are remembered and when the flag is set to <code>false</code>, the layout operations are performed in an optimized manner. Nested calls to this method are stacked.
Sets the tabbing order for the specified controls to match the order that they occur in the argument list.
Instances of this class support the layout of selectable expand bar items. <p> The item children that may be added to instances of this class must be of type <code>ExpandItem</code>. </p><p> <dl> <dt><b>Styles:</b></dt> <dd>V_SCROLL</dd> <dt><b>Events:</b></dt> <dd>Expand, Collapse</dd> </dl> </p><p> IMPORTANT: This class is <em>not</em> intended to be subclassed. </p>
