Method Detail

getMenu

public Menu getMenu()
Returns the receiver's pop up menu if it has one, or null if it does not.

Returns the receiver's overlay image if it has one, or null if it does not.

Returns:
the receiver's overlay image
Throws:

  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver

getOverlayText

public java.lang.String getOverlayText()
Returns the receiver's overlay text, which will be an empty string if it has never been set.

Returns:
the receiver's overlay text
Throws:
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver

getParent

public TaskBar getParent()
Returns the receiver's parent, which must be a TaskBar.

Returns:
the receiver's parent
Throws:
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver

getProgress

public int getProgress()
Returns the receiver's progress.

Returns:
the receiver's progress
Throws:
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver

getProgressState

public int getProgressState()
Returns the receiver's progress state.

Returns:
the receiver's progress state
Throws:
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver

setMenu

public void setMenu(Menu menu)
Sets the receiver's pop up menu to the argument. The way the menu is shown is platform specific.

This feature might not be available for the receiver on all platforms. The application code can check if it is supported by calling the respective get method. When the feature is not available, the get method will always return the NULL.

For better cross platform support, the application code should set this feature on the TaskItem for application.
On Windows, this feature will only work on RCP applications.

The menu should be fully created before this method is called. Dynamic changes to the menu after the method is called will not be reflected in the native menu.

Parameters:
menu - the new pop up menu
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException -
  • ERROR_MENU_NOT_POP_UP - the menu is not a pop up menu
  • ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT - if the menu has been disposed
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver

setOverlayImage

public void setOverlayImage(Image overlayImage)
Sets the receiver's overlay image, which may be null indicating that no image should be displayed. The bounds for the overlay image is determined by the platform and in general it should be a small image.

This feature might not be available for the receiver on all platforms. The application code can check if it is supported by calling the respective get method. When the feature is not available, the get method will always return the NULL.

For better cross platform support, the application code should first try to set this feature on the TaskItem for the main shell then on the TaskItem for the application.

Parameters:
overlayImage - the new overlay image (may be null)
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException -
  • ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT - if the overlayImage has been disposed
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver

setOverlayText

public void setOverlayText(java.lang.String overlayText)
Sets the receiver's overlay text. The space available to display the overlay text is platform dependent and in general it should be no longer than a few characters.

This feature might not be available for the receiver on all platforms. The application code can check if it is supported by calling the respective get method. When the feature is not available, the get method will always return an empty string.

For better cross platform support, the application code should first try to set this feature on the TaskItem for the main shell then on the TaskItem for the application.

Parameters:
overlayText - the new overlay text
Throws:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException -
  • ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT - if the overlayText is null
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver

setProgress

public void setProgress(int progress)
Sets the receiver's progress, the progress represents a percentage and should be in range from 0 to 100. The progress is only shown when the progress state is different than SWT#DEFAULT.

This feature might not be available for the receiver on all platforms. The application code can check if it is supported by calling the respective get method. When the feature is not available, the get method will always return zero.

For better cross platform support, the application code should first try to set this feature on the TaskItem for the main shell then on the TaskItem for the application.

Parameters:
progress - the new progress
Throws:
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
  • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
#see setProgressState(int)

setProgressState

public void setProgressState(int progressState)
Sets the receiver's progress state, the state can be one of the following:

The percentage of progress shown by the states SWT#NORMAL, SWT#PAUSED, SWT#ERROR is set with setProgress().
The state SWT#DEFAULT indicates that no progress should be shown.

This feature might not be available for the receiver on all platforms. The application code can check if it is supported by calling the respective get method. When the feature is not available, the get method will always return SWT#DEFAULT.

For better cross platform support, the application code should first try to set this feature on the TaskItem for the main shell then on the TaskItem for the application.

Parameters:
progressState - the new progress state
Throws:
SWTException -
  • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
