public class Popup extends Object
Component
to the user, typically on top of all the other Component
s in a particular containment hierarchy. Popup
s have a very small life cycle. Once you have obtained a Popup
, and hidden it (invoked the hide
method), you should no longer invoke any methods on it. This allows the PopupFactory
to cache Popup
s for later use. The general contract is that if you need to change the size of the Component
, or location of the Popup
, you should obtain a new Popup
.
Popup
does not descend from Component
, rather implementations of Popup
are responsible for creating and maintaining their own Component
s to render the requested Component
to the user.
You typically do not explicitly create an instance of Popup
, instead obtain one from a PopupFactory
.

Popup
for the Component owner
containing the Component contents
. owner
is used to determine which Window
the new Popup
will parent the Component
the Popup
creates to. A null owner
implies there is no valid parent. x
and y
specify the preferred initial location to place the Popup
at. Based on screen size, or other parameters, the Popup
may not display at x
and y

. Once a Popup
has been disposed you should no longer invoke methods on it. A dispose
d Popup
may be reclaimed and later used based on the PopupFactory
. As such, if you invoke methods on a disposed
Popup
, indeterminate behavior will result.
