Class MathTextListener

java.lang.Object

com.wolfram.jlink.MathListener

com.wolfram.jlink.MathTextListener

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.awt.event.TextListener, java.util.EventListener

public class MathTextListener
extends MathListener
implements java.awt.event.TextListener

This class lets you trigger a call into Mathematica on the occurrence of a particular event. Like all the MathXXXListener classes, it is intended to be used primarily from Mathematica, although it can be used from Java code as well.

In response to a TextEvent, objects of this class send to Mathematica:

     userFunc[theTextEvent]

userFunc is specified as a string, either a function name or an expression (like a pure function "foo[##]&"), via the setHandler() method.

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor and Description
MathTextListener() The constructor that is typically called from Mathematica.
MathTextListener(KernelLink ml) You must use this constructor when using this class in a Java program, because you need to specify the KernelLink that will be used.
MathTextListener(java.lang.String func) Because the TextListener interface has only one method, textValueChanged(), you can specify the Mathematica function to be called with this constructor, rather than having to separately call setHandler().

Constructor Detail

MathTextListener

public MathTextListener()

The constructor that is typically called from Mathematica.

MathTextListener

public MathTextListener(KernelLink ml)

You must use this constructor when using this class in a Java program, because you need to specify the KernelLink that will be used.

Parameters:

ml - The link to which computations will be sent when textValueChanged is called.

MathTextListener

public MathTextListener(java.lang.String func)

Because the TextListener interface has only one method, textValueChanged(), you can specify the Mathematica function to be called with this constructor, rather than having to separately call setHandler(). Use this constructor from Mathematica code only.

Parameters:

func - The Mathematica function to be executed in response to an TextEvent.

Method Detail

textValueChanged

public void textValueChanged(java.awt.event.TextEvent e)

Specified by:

textValueChanged in interface java.awt.event.TextListener
