public final class Actions
extends java.lang.Object

Provides all UI Actions and their IDs. Therefore it declares static fields for action ids and implementations of the Action interface. These actions are registered to the ActionManager.

This class demos three different styles to implement Action; they differ in readability, number of classes loaded, and the ability to write more or less large action bodies, while preserving good code formatting:

1. anonymous classes: This approach provides a literally compact way to write down a bunch of action implementations, which will work better, if you have tiny method bodys. In our demo, all method bodies just delegate to the application controller. Does not provide human readable name in case of an error and so, may be more difficult to debug. Requires a class for every action.
2. nested top-level classes: This approach requires a little bit more writing than the first approach. Writing larger method bodies does not affect the registering method. The extra class names help you find bugs. Requires a class for every action.
3. instances of a single dispatching class: This approach leads to good readability in the registering method and requires only one class to load for all actions. Works better with small action bodies. May lead to runtime errors, if you haven't defined a dispatch for an action ID.

Method Detail

initializeFor

public static void initializeFor(MainModule mainModule,
                                 MainController controller)

Initializes the actions used in this application. Registers all actions with the ActionManager and observes changes in the main module's selection and project to update the enablement of some actions.

Parameters:

mainModule - provides bound properties for the selection and project

controller - used to forward all action behavior

getController

public MainController getController()
