<div class="block">GroupLayout is a LayoutManager that hierarchically groups components to
achieve common, and not so common, layouts. Grouping is done by instances
of the Group class. GroupLayout supports two types of groups:
<table>
<tr><td valign=top>Sequential:<td>A sequential group positions its child
elements sequentially, one after another.
<tr><td valign=top>Parallel:<td>A parallel group positions its child
elements in the same space on top of each other. Parallel groups
can also align the child elements along their baseline.
</table>
Each Group can contain any number of child groups, Components or gaps.
GroupLayout treats each axis independently. That is, there is a group
representing the horizontal axis, and a separate group representing the
vertical axis. The horizontal group is responsible for setting the x
and width of its contents, where as the vertical group is responsible for
setting the y and height of its contents.
<p>
The following code builds a simple layout consisting of two labels in
one column, followed by two textfields in the next column:
<pre>
JComponent panel = ...;
GroupLayout layout = new GroupLayout(panel);
panel.setLayout(layout);
layout.setAutocreateGaps(true);
layout.setAutocreateContainerGaps(true);
GroupLayout.SequentialGroup hGroup = layout.createSequentialGroup();
hGroup.add(layout.createParallelGroup().add(label1).add(label2)).
add(layout.createParallelGroup().add(tf1).add(tf2));
layout.setHorizontalGroup(hGroup);
GroupLayout.SequentialGroup vGroup = layout.createSequentialGroup();
vGroup.add(layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.BASELINE).add(label1).add(tf1)).
add(layout.createParallelGroup(GroupLayout.BASELINE).add(label2).add(tf2));
layout.setVerticalGroup(vGroup);
</pre>
<p>
This layout consists of the following:
<ul><li>The horizontal axis consists of a sequential group containing two
parallel groups. The first parallel group consists of the labels,
with the second parallel group consisting of the text fields.
<li>The vertical axis similarly consists of a sequential group
containing two parallel groups. The parallel groups align their
contents along the baseline. The first parallel group consists
of the first label and text field, and the second group consists
of the second label and text field.
</ul>
There are a couple of things to notice in this code:
<ul>
<li>You need not explicitly add the components to the container, this
is indirectly done by using one of the <code>add</code> methods.
<li>The various <code>add</code> methods of <code>Groups</code> return
themselves. This allows for easy chaining of invocations. For
example, <code>group.add(label1).add(label2);</code> is equivalent to
<code>group.add(label1);group.add(label2);</code>.
<li>There are no public constructors for the Groups, instead
use the create methods of <code>GroupLayout</code>.
</ul>
GroupLayout offer the ability to automatically insert the appropriate gap
between components. This can be turned on using the
<code>setAutocreateGaps()</code> method. Similarly you can use
the <code>setAutocreateContainerGaps()</code> method to insert gaps
between the components and the container.</div>
