public class Container
A generic Abstract Window Toolkit(AWT) container object is a component that can contain other AWT components.
Components added to a container are tracked in a list. The order of the list will define the components' front-to-back stacking order within the container. If no index is specified when adding a component to a container, it will be added to the end of the list (and hence to the bottom of the stacking order).
Note: For details on the focus subsystem, see How to Use the Focus Subsystem, a section in The Java Tutorial, and the Focus Specification for more information.

public void setComponentZOrder(Component comp, int index)
If the component is a child of some other container, it is
removed from that container before being added to this container.
The important difference between this method and
java.awt.Container.add(Component, int)
is that this method
doesn't call removeNotify
on the component while
removing it from its previous container unless necessary and when
allowed by the underlying native windowing system. This way, if the
component has the keyboard focus, it maintains the focus when
moved to the new position.
This property is guaranteed to apply only to lightweight
non-Container
components.
Note: Not all platforms support changing the z-order of
heavyweight components from one container into another without
the call to removeNotify
. There is no way to detect
whether a platform supports this, so developers shouldn't make
any assumptions.

The constraints are
defined by the particular layout manager being used. For
example, the BorderLayout
class defines five
constraints: BorderLayout.NORTH
,
BorderLayout.SOUTH
, BorderLayout.EAST
,
BorderLayout.WEST
, and BorderLayout.CENTER
.
The GridBagLayout
class requires a
GridBagConstraints
object. Failure to pass
the correct type of constraints object results in an
IllegalArgumentException
.
If the current layout manager implements LayoutManager2
, then
LayoutManager2.addLayoutComponent(Component,Object)
is invoked on
it. If the current layout manager does not implement
LayoutManager2
, and constraints is a String
, then
LayoutManager.addLayoutComponent(String,Component)
is invoked on it.
If the component is not an ancestor of this container and has a non-null parent, it is removed from its current parent before it is added to this container.
This is the method to override if a program needs to track every add request to a container as all other add methods defer to this one. An overriding method should usually include a call to the superclass's version of the method:
super.addImpl(comp, constraints, index)

public void setFocusTraversalKeys(int id, Set<? extends AWTKeyStroke> keystrokes)
The default values for a Container's focus traversal keys are implementation-dependent. Sun recommends that all implementations for a particular native platform use the same default values. The recommendations for Windows and Unix are listed below. These recommendations are used in the Sun AWT implementations.
Identifier | Meaning | Default | |
---|---|---|---|
KeyboardFocusManager.FORWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS | Normal forward keyboard traversal | TAB on KEY_PRESSED, CTRL-TAB on KEY_PRESSED | |
KeyboardFocusManager.BACKWARD_TRAVERSAL_KEYS | Normal reverse keyboard traversal | SHIFT-TAB on KEY_PRESSED, CTRL-SHIFT-TAB on KEY_PRESSED | |
KeyboardFocusManager.UP_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS | Go up one focus traversal cycle | none | |
KeyboardFocusManager.DOWN_CYCLE_TRAVERSAL_KEYS | Go down one focus traversal cycle | none |
Using the AWTKeyStroke API, client code can specify on which of two specific KeyEvents, KEY_PRESSED or KEY_RELEASED, the focus traversal operation will occur. Regardless of which KeyEvent is specified, however, all KeyEvents related to the focus traversal key, including the associated KEY_TYPED event, will be consumed, and will not be dispatched to any Container. It is a runtime error to specify a KEY_TYPED event as mapping to a focus traversal operation, or to map the same event to multiple default focus traversal operations.
If a value of null is specified for the Set, this Container inherits the Set from its parent. If all ancestors of this Container have null specified for the Set, then the current KeyboardFocusManager's default Set is used.
