public class ActionEvent extends AWTEvent
A semantic event which indicates that a component-defined action occurred. This high-level event is generated by a component (such as aButton
) when the component-specific action occurs (such as being pressed). The event is passed to everyActionListener
object that registered to receive such events using the component'saddActionListener
method.Note: To invoke an
ActionEvent
on aButton
using the keyboard, use the Space bar.The object that implements the
ActionListener
interface gets thisActionEvent
when the event occurs. The listener is therefore spared the details of processing individual mouse movements and mouse clicks, and can instead process a "meaningful" (semantic) event like "button pressed".An unspecified behavior will be caused if the
id
parameter of any particularActionEvent
instance is not in the range fromACTION_FIRST
toACTION_LAST
.- Since:

Method Detail
-
getActionCommand
public String getActionCommand()
Returns the command string associated with this action. This string allows a "modal" component to specify one of several commands, depending on its state. For example, a single button might toggle between "show details" and "hide details". The source object and the event would be the same in each case, but the command string would identify the intended action.Note that if a
null
command string was passed to the constructor for thisActionEvent
, this this method returnsnull
.- Returns:
- the string identifying the command for this event
-
getWhen
public long getWhen()
Returns the timestamp of when this event occurred. Because an ActionEvent is a high-level, semantic event, the timestamp is typically the same as an underlying InputEvent.- Returns:
- this event's timestamp
- Since:
- 1.4
-
getModifiers
public int getModifiers()
Returns the modifier keys held down during this action event.- Returns:
- the bitwise-or of the modifier constants
-
paramString
public String paramString()
Returns a parameter string identifying this action event. This method is useful for event-logging and for debugging.- Overrides:
paramString
in classAWTEvent
- Returns:
- a string identifying the event and its associated command
