GraphicsDevice
class describes the graphics devices
that might be available in a particular graphics environment. These
include screen and printer devices. Note that there can be many screens
and many printers in an instance of GraphicsEnvironment
. Each
graphics device has one or more GraphicsConfiguration
objects
associated with it. These objects specify the different configurations
in which the GraphicsDevice
can be used.
In a multi-screen environment, the GraphicsConfiguration
objects can be used to render components on multiple screens. The
following code sample demonstrates how to create a JFrame
object for each GraphicsConfiguration
on each screen
device in the GraphicsEnvironment
:
GraphicsEnvironment ge = GraphicsEnvironment. getLocalGraphicsEnvironment(); GraphicsDevice[] gs = ge.getScreenDevices(); for (int j = 0; j < gs.length; j++) { GraphicsDevice gd = gs[j]; GraphicsConfiguration[] gc = gd.getConfigurations(); for (int i=0; i < gc.length; i++) { JFrame f = new JFrame(gs[j].getDefaultConfiguration()); Canvas c = new Canvas(gc[i]); Rectangle gcBounds = gc[i].getBounds(); int xoffs = gcBounds.x; int yoffs = gcBounds.y; f.getContentPane().add(c); f.setLocation((i*50)+xoffs, (i*60)+yoffs); f.show(); } }
The equals
method implements an equivalence relation
on non-null object references:
x
, x.equals(x)
should return
true
.
x
and y
, x.equals(y)
should return true
if and only if
y.equals(x)
returns true
.
x
, y
, and z
, if
x.equals(y)
returns true
and
y.equals(z)
returns true
, then
x.equals(z)
should return true
.
x
and y
, multiple invocations of
x.equals(y) consistently return true
or consistently return false
, provided no
information used in equals
comparisons on the
objects is modified.
x
,
x.equals(null)
should return false
.
The equals method for class Object
implements
the most discriminating possible equivalence relation on objects;
that is, for any non-null reference values x
and
y
, this method returns true
if and only
if x
and y
refer to the same object
(x == y
has the value true
).
Note that it is generally necessary to override the hashCode method whenever this method is overridden, so as to maintain the general contract for the hashCode method, which states that equal objects must have equal hash codes.

A particular program might use more than one
GraphicsDevice
in a GraphicsEnvironment

This method returns a String
identifying a
particular GraphicsDevice
in the local
GraphicsEnvironment
. Although there is
no public method to set this String
, a programmer can
use the String
for debugging purposes. Vendors of
the JavaTM Runtime Environment can
format the return value of the String
. To determine
how to interpret the value of the String
, contact the
vendor of your Java Runtime. To find out who the vendor is, from
your program, call the
getProperty
method of the
System class with "java.vendor".

The general contract of hashCode
is:
hashCode
method on each of
the two objects must produce the same integer result.
As much as is reasonably practical, the hashCode method defined by class Object does return distinct integers for distinct objects. (This is typically implemented by converting the internal address of the object into an integer, but this implementation technique is not required by the JavaTM programming language.)

methods.
The awakened thread will not be able to proceed until the current thread relinquishes the lock on this object. The awakened thread will compete in the usual manner with any other threads that might be actively competing to synchronize on this object; for example, the awakened thread enjoys no reliable privilege or disadvantage in being the next thread to lock this object.
This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. A thread becomes the owner of the object's monitor in one of three ways:
synchronized
statement
that synchronizes on the object.
Class,
by executing a
synchronized static method of that class.
Only one thread at a time can own an object's monitor.

methods.
The awakened threads will not be able to proceed until the current thread relinquishes the lock on this object. The awakened threads will compete in the usual manner with any other threads that might be actively competing to synchronize on this object; for example, the awakened threads enjoy no reliable privilege or disadvantage in being the next thread to lock this object.
This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner
of this object's monitor. See the notify
method for a
description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of
a monitor.
If isFullScreenSupported
returns true
, full
screen mode is considered to be exclusive, which implies:
Component.enableInputMethods(false)
to make a component
a non-client of the input method framework.
If isFullScreenSupported
returns
false
, full-screen exclusive mode is simulated by resizing
the window to the size of the screen and positioning it at (0,0).
When entering full-screen exclusive mode, if the window to be used as the full-screen window is not visible, this method will make it visible. It will remain visible when returning to windowed mode.
When returning to windowed mode from an exclusive full-screen window, any
display changes made by calling setDisplayMode
are
automatically restored to their original state.
toString
method returns a string that
"textually represents" this object. The result should
be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a
person to read.
It is recommended that all subclasses override this method.
The toString
method for class Object
returns a string consisting of the name of the class of which the
object is an instance, the at-sign character `@
', and
the unsigned hexadecimal representation of the hash code of the
object. In other words, this method returns a string equal to the
value of:
getClass().getName() + '@' + Integer.toHexString(hashCode())
The current thread must own this object's monitor. The thread
releases ownership of this monitor and waits until another thread
notifies threads waiting on this object's monitor to wake up
either through a call to the notify
method or the
notifyAll
method. The thread then waits until it can
re-obtain ownership of the monitor and resumes execution.
As in the one argument version, interrupts and spurious wakeups are possible, and this method should always be used in a loop:
synchronized (obj) { while (<condition does not hold>) obj.wait(); ... // Perform action appropriate to condition }This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the
notify
method for a
description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of
a monitor.The current thread must own this object's monitor.
This method causes the current thread (call it T) to place itself in the wait set for this object and then to relinquish any and all synchronization claims on this object. Thread T becomes disabled for thread scheduling purposes and lies dormant until one of four things happens:
A thread can also wake up without being notified, interrupted, or timing out, a so-called spurious wakeup. While this will rarely occur in practice, applications must guard against it by testing for the condition that should have caused the thread to be awakened, and continuing to wait if the condition is not satisfied. In other words, waits should always occur in loops, like this one:
synchronized (obj) { while (<condition does not hold>) obj.wait(timeout); ... // Perform action appropriate to condition }(For more information on this topic, see Section 3.2.3 in Doug Lea's "Concurrent Programming in Java (Second Edition)" (Addison-Wesley, 2000), or Item 50 in Joshua Bloch's "Effective Java Programming Language Guide" (Addison-Wesley, 2001).
If the current thread is interrupted by another thread while it is waiting, then an InterruptedException is thrown. This exception is not thrown until the lock status of this object has been restored as described above.
Note that the wait method, as it places the current thread into the wait set for this object, unlocks only this object; any other objects on which the current thread may be synchronized remain locked while the thread waits.
This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner
of this object's monitor. See the notify
method for a
description of the ways in which a thread can become the owner of
a monitor.
This method is similar to the wait
method of one
argument, but it allows finer control over the amount of time to
wait for a notification before giving up. The amount of real time,
measured in nanoseconds, is given by:
1000000*timeout+nanos
In all other respects, this method does the same thing as the method of one argument. In particular, wait(0, 0) means the same thing as wait(0).
The current thread must own this object's monitor. The thread releases ownership of this monitor and waits until either of the following two conditions has occurred:
notify
method
or the notifyAll
method.
timeout
milliseconds plus nanos
nanoseconds arguments, has
elapsed.
The thread then waits until it can re-obtain ownership of the monitor and resumes execution.
As in the one argument version, interrupts and spurious wakeups are possible, and this method should always be used in a loop:
synchronized (obj) { while (<condition does not hold>) obj.wait(timeout, nanos); ... // Perform action appropriate to condition }This method should only be called by a thread that is the owner of this object's monitor. See the
notify
method for a
