All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable

public class InternalFrameEvent
extends AWTEvent

An `AWTEvent` that adds support for `JInternalFrame` objects as the event source. This class has the same event types as `WindowEvent`, although different IDs are used. Help on handling internal frame events is in How to Write an Internal Frame Listener, a section in The Java Tutorial.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the `java.beans` package. Please see `XMLEncoder`.

  `WindowEvent`, `WindowListener`, `JInternalFrame`, `InternalFrameListener`

Field Detail

### INTERNAL_FRAME_FIRST

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_FIRST

  The first number in the range of IDs used for internal frame events.

    Constant Field Values

### INTERNAL_FRAME_LAST

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_LAST

  The last number in the range of IDs used for internal frame events.

  See Also:
    Constant Field Values

### INTERNAL_FRAME_OPENED

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_OPENED

  The "window opened" event. This event is delivered only the first time the internal frame is made visible.

  See Also:
    `JInternalFrame.show()`, Constant Field Values

### INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSING

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSING

  The "window is closing" event. This event is delivered when the user attempts to close the internal frame, such as by clicking the internal frame's close button, or when a program attempts to close the internal frame by invoking the `setClosed` method.

  See Also:
    `JInternalFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(int)`, `JInternalFrame.doDefaultCloseAction()`, `JInternalFrame.setClosed(boolean)`, Constant Field Values

### INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSED

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_CLOSED

  The "window closed" event. This event is delivered after the internal frame has been closed as the result of a call to the `setClosed` or `dispose` method.

  See Also:
    `JInternalFrame.setClosed(boolean)`, `JInternalFrame.dispose()`, Constant Field Values

### INTERNAL_FRAME_ICONIFIED

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_ICONIFIED

  The "window iconified" event. This event indicates that the internal frame was shrunk down to a small icon.

  See Also:
    `JInternalFrame.setIcon(boolean)`, Constant Field Values

### INTERNAL_FRAME_DEICONIFIED

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_DEICONIFIED

  The "window deiconified" event type. This event indicates that the internal frame has been restored to its normal size.

  See Also:
    `JInternalFrame.setIcon(boolean)`, Constant Field Values

### INTERNAL_FRAME_ACTIVATED

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_ACTIVATED

  The "window activated" event type. This event indicates that keystrokes and mouse clicks are directed towards this internal frame.

  See Also:
    `JInternalFrame.show()`, `JInternalFrame.setSelected(boolean)`, Constant Field Values

### INTERNAL_FRAME_DEACTIVATED

    public static final int INTERNAL_FRAME_DEACTIVATED

  The "window deactivated" event type. This event indicates that keystrokes and mouse clicks are no longer directed to the internal frame.
