public interface BorderInterface describing an object capable of rendering a border around the edges of a swing component. For examples of using borders see How to Use Borders, a section in The Java Tutorial.In the Swing component set, borders supercede Insets as the mechanism for creating a (decorated or plain) area around the edge of a component.
Usage Notes:
- Use EmptyBorder to create a plain border (this mechanism
replaces its predecessor,
setInsets). - Use CompoundBorder to nest multiple border objects, creating a single, combined border.
- Border instances are designed to be shared. Rather than creating a new border object using one of border classes, use the BorderFactory methods, which produces a shared instance of the common border types.
- Additional border styles include BevelBorder, SoftBevelBorder, EtchedBorder, LineBorder, TitledBorder, and MatteBorder.
- To create a new border class, subclass AbstractBorder.

paintBorder
void paintBorder(Component c, Graphics g, int x, int y, int width, int height)
Paints the border for the specified component with the specified position and size.- Parameters:

-
getBorderInsets
Insets getBorderInsets(Component c)
Returns the insets of the border.- Parameters:
c- the component for which this border insets value applies
