All Implemented Interfaces:

public class LabelHandler

extends ComponentHandler

implements java.io.Serializable

This class handles the requirements for the manipulation of the packets moving to and from a label component. It is designed to look like a standard Label and interacts with the ApplicationInterface as if the label was running on the server rather than the Browser.

The remote client class also responds to information stored in the parameters field of the XYConstraints object when this handler is added to a panel. The allowed parameters are separated in the string by '|' characters. Any unused trailing parameters are optional and will assume default values, however the parameter order is fixed.

For example, if the component takes 4 parameters which are ints, a valid parameter string would be:

"1|2|3"

In this case the fourth parameter would assume the default value.

The parameter elements for this component are:

Component Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Repeats	Default
Label	String	The label displayed in the label	No

                    ApplicationInterface pageHandler)

The initialising constructor.

Parameters:

id - The int containing the id of the corresponding remote component residing on the browser.

pageHandler - The handle to the main ApplicationInterface which handles the functions of page overall.
