TabItem
Constructs a new instance of this class given its parent (which must be aTabFolder
) and a style value describing its behavior and appearance. The item is added to the end of the items maintained by its parent.The style value is either one of the style constants defined in class
SWT
which is applicable to instances of this class, or must be built by bitwise OR'ing together (that is, using theint
"|" operator) two or more of thoseSWT
style constants. The class description lists the style constants that are applicable to the class. Style bits are also inherited from superclasses.- Parameters:
parent
- a composite control which will be the parent of the new instance (cannot be null)style
- the style of control to construct- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
-- ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT - if the parent is null
SWTException
-- ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the parent
- ERROR_INVALID_SUBCLASS - if this class is not an allowed subclass

checkSubclass
protected void checkSubclass()Description copied from class:Widget
Checks that this class can be subclassed.The SWT class library is intended to be subclassed only at specific, controlled points (most notably,
Composite
andCanvas
when implementing new widgets). This method enforces this rule unless it is overridden.IMPORTANT: By providing an implementation of this method that allows a subclass of a class which does not normally allow subclassing to be created, the implementer agrees to be fully responsible for the fact that any such subclass will likely fail between SWT releases and will be strongly platform specific. No support is provided for user-written classes which are implemented in this fashion.
The ability to subclass outside of the allowed SWT classes is intended purely to enable those not on the SWT development team to implement patches in order to get around specific limitations in advance of when those limitations can be addressed by the team. Subclassing should not be attempted without an intimate and detailed understanding of the hierarchy.
- Overrides:
checkSubclass

-
getControl
Returns the control that is used to fill the client area of the tab folder when the user selects the tab item. If no control has been set, returnnull
.- Returns:
- the control
- Throws:
SWTException
-- ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
- ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
-
getBounds
Returns a rectangle describing the receiver's size and location relative to its parent.- Returns:
- the receiver's bounding rectangle
- Throws:
SWTException
-- ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
- ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
- Since:
- 3.4
-
getParent
Returns the receiver's parent, which must be aTabFolder
.- Returns:
- the receiver's parent
- Throws:
SWTException
-- ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
- ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
-
getToolTipText
Returns the receiver's tool tip text, or null if it has not been set.- Returns:
- the receiver's tool tip text
- Throws:
SWTException
-- ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
- ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
-
setControl
Sets the control that is used to fill the client area of the tab folder when the user selects the tab item.- Parameters:
control
- the new control (or null)- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
-- ERROR_INVALID_ARGUMENT - if the control has been disposed
- ERROR_INVALID_PARENT - if the control is not in the same widget tree
SWTException
-- ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
- ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
-
setImage
Description copied from class:Item
Sets the receiver's image to the argument, which may be null indicating that no image should be displayed. -
setText
Sets the receiver's text. The string may include the mnemonic character.Mnemonics are indicated by an '&' that causes the next character to be the mnemonic. When the user presses a key sequence that matches the mnemonic, a selection event occurs. On most platforms, the mnemonic appears underlined but may be emphasised in a platform specific manner. The mnemonic indicator character '&' can be escaped by doubling it in the string, causing a single '&' to be displayed.
- Overrides:
setText
in classItem
- Parameters:
string
- the new text- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException
-- ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT - if the text is null
SWTException
-- ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
- ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
-
setToolTipText
Sets the receiver's tool tip text to the argument, which may be null indicating that the default tool tip for the control will be shown. For a control that has a default tool tip, such as the Tree control on Windows, setting the tool tip text to an empty string replaces the default, causing no tool tip text to be shown.The mnemonic indicator (character '&') is not displayed in a tool tip. To display a single '&' in the tool tip, the character '&' can be escaped by doubling it in the string.
NOTE: This operation is a hint and behavior is platform specific, on Windows for CJK-style mnemonics of the form " (&C)" at the end of the tooltip text are not shown in tooltip.
- Parameters:
string
- the new tool tip text (or null)- Throws:
SWTException
-- ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
- ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the receiver
