abstract protected  void buildChooser()
Builds a new chooser panel.

 protected Color getColorFromModel() 
{
        return getColorSelectionModel().getSelectedColor();
}

Returns the color that is currently selected.

 public ColorSelectionModel getColorSelectionModel() 
{
        return chooser.getSelectionModel();
}

Returns the model that the chooser panel is editing.

 abstract public String getDisplayName()
Returns a string containing the display name of the panel.

 public int getDisplayedMnemonicIndex() 
{
        return -1;
}

Provides a hint to the look and feel as to the index of the character in getDisplayName that should be visually identified as the mnemonic. The look and feel should only use this if getMnemonic returns a value > 0.

The return value here is a hint, it is ultimately up to the look and feel to honor the return value in some meaningful way. For example, a look and feel may wish to render each AbstractColorChooserPanel in a JTabbedPane, and further use this return value to underline a character in the getDisplayName.

This implementation returns -1, indicating the AbstractColorChooserPanel does not support a mnemonic, subclasses wishing a mnemonic will need to override this.

 int getInt(Object key,
    int defaultValue) 
{
        Object value = UIManager.get(key, getLocale());
        if (value instanceof Integer) {
            return ((Integer)value).intValue();
        }
        if (value instanceof String) {
            try {
                return Integer.parseInt((String)value);
            } catch (NumberFormatException nfe) {}
        }
        return defaultValue;
}

Returns an integer from the defaults table. If key does not map to a valid Integer, default is returned.

 abstract public Icon getLargeDisplayIcon()
Returns the large display icon for the panel.

 public int getMnemonic() 
{
        return 0;
}

Provides a hint to the look and feel as to the KeyEvent.VK constant that can be used as a mnemonic to access the panel. A return value <= 0 indicates there is no mnemonic.

The return value here is a hint, it is ultimately up to the look and feel to honor the return value in some meaningful way.

This implementation returns 0, indicating the AbstractColorChooserPanel does not support a mnemonic, subclasses wishing a mnemonic will need to override this.

 abstract public Icon getSmallDisplayIcon()
Returns the small display icon for the panel.

 public  void installChooserPanel(JColorChooser enclosingChooser) 
{
        if (chooser != null) {
            throw new RuntimeException ("This chooser panel is already installed");
        }
        chooser = enclosingChooser;
        buildChooser();
        updateChooser();
}

Invoked when the panel is added to the chooser. If you override this, be sure to call super.

 public  void paint(Graphics g) 
{
        super.paint(g);
}

Draws the panel.

 public  void uninstallChooserPanel(JColorChooser enclosingChooser) 
{
        chooser = null;
}

Invoked when the panel is removed from the chooser. If override this, be sure to call super.

 abstract public  void updateChooser()
Invoked automatically when the model's state changes.
It is also called by installChooserPanel to allow
you to set up the initial state of your chooser.
Override this method to update your ChooserPanel.
