weka.gui.visualize.JComponentWriter

Direct Known Subclasses:

BMPWriter, JPEGWriter, PNGWriter, PostscriptWriter

public abstract class JComponentWriter
extends java.lang.Object

This class takes any JComponent and outputs it to a file. Scaling is by default enabled. Derived classes only need to override the following methods:

• getDescription()
• getExtension()
• generateOutput()

toOutput

public void toOutput()
              throws java.lang.Exception

saves the current component to the currently set file.

Note: this method calls generateOutput() which needs to be overriden in subclasses!

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if either the file or the component is null

toOutput

public static void toOutput(JComponentWriter writer,
                            javax.swing.JComponent comp,
                            java.io.File file)
                     throws java.lang.Exception

outputs the given component with the given writer in the specified file

Parameters:

writer - the writer to use

comp - the component to output

file - the file to store the output in

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if component of file are null

toOutput

public static void toOutput(JComponentWriter writer,
                            javax.swing.JComponent comp,
                            java.io.File file,
                            int width,

                     throws java.lang.Exception

outputs the given component with the given writer in the specified file. If width and height are different from -1 then these sizes are used, otherwise the current ones of the component

Parameters:

writer - the writer to use

comp - the component to output

file - the file to store the output in

width - custom width, -1 uses the component's one

height - custom height, -1 uses the component's one

Throws:

java.lang.Exception - if component or file are null
