Class KeyedComboBoxModel

java.lang.Object

org.jfree.report.modules.gui.swing.common.KeyedComboBoxModel

All Implemented Interfaces:

javax.swing.ComboBoxModel, javax.swing.ListModel

public class KeyedComboBoxModel
extends java.lang.Object
implements javax.swing.ComboBoxModel

The KeyedComboBox model allows to define an internal key (the data element) for every entry in the model.

This class is usefull in all cases, where the public text differs from the internal view on the data. A separation between presentation data and processing data is a prequesite for localizing combobox entries. This model does not allow selected elements, which are not in the list of valid elements.
