LuciadLightspeedInterface ILcyApplicationPaneFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

TLcyDockableApplicationPaneFactory

public interface ILcyApplicationPaneFactory

The factory that creates ILcyApplicationPane's. An ILcyApplicationPane shall always be created using a factory.

Note that there is no operation to add an application pane to Lucy's environment. The creation of a pane will add it to the (visible) Lucy's environment right away. This means all swing operations (like add, remove, ...) on the content pane of an application pane need to be performed on the event dispatch thread (swing is designed to be single threaded).
