## Class InputHandler

- Object
- - KeyAdapter
  - - InputHandler

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    KeyListener, EventListener
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    DefaultInputHandler

      public abstract class InputHandler
      extends KeyAdapter

  An input handler converts the user's key strokes into concrete actions. It also takes care of macro recording and action repetition.

  This class provides all the necessary support code for an input handler, but doesn't actually do any key binding logic. It is up to the implementations of this class to do so.

    - #### SMART_HOME_END_PROPERTY

          public static final String SMART_HOME_END_PROPERTY

      If this client property is set to Boolean.TRUE on the text area, the home/end keys will support 'smart' BRIEF-like behaviour (one press = start/end of line, two presses = start/end of viewscreen, three presses = start/end of document). By default, this property is not set.

        Constant Field Values

    - #### CONTEXT_AWARE_HOME_END

          public static final String CONTEXT_AWARE_HOME_END

      If this PDE property is set to Boolean.TRUE, the home/end keys will go to the first/last non-whitespace character of the line. If already at the that character, the keypress will move the cursor to the actual start/end of the line. SMART_HOME_END_PROPERTY takes precedence over this property.

    - #### getAction

          public static ActionListener getAction(String name)

      Returns a named text area action.
      Parameters:
        `name` - The action name

    - #### getActionName

          public static String getActionName(ActionListener listener)

      Returns the name of the specified text area action.
      Parameters:
        `listener` - The action

    - #### getActions

          public static Set<String> getActions()

      Returns an enumeration of all available actions.

    - #### addDefaultKeyBindings

          public abstract void addDefaultKeyBindings()

      Adds the default key bindings to this input handler. This should not be called in the constructor of this input handler, because applications might load the key bindings from a file, etc.

    - #### addKeyBinding

          public abstract void addKeyBinding(String keyBinding,
                                             ActionListener action)

      Adds a key binding to this input handler.
      Parameters:
        `keyBinding` - The key binding (the format of this is input-handler specific)
        `action` - The action

    - #### removeKeyBinding

          public abstract void removeKeyBinding(String keyBinding)

      Removes a key binding from this input handler.
      Parameters:
        `keyBinding` - The key binding

    - #### removeAllKeyBindings

          public abstract void removeAllKeyBindings()

      Removes all key bindings from this input handler.

    - #### grabNextKeyStroke

          public void grabNextKeyStroke(ActionListener listener)

      Grabs the next key typed event and invokes the specified action with the key as a the action command.

    - #### isRepeatEnabled

          public boolean isRepeatEnabled()

      Returns if repeating is enabled. When repeating is enabled, actions will be executed multiple times. This is usually invoked with a special key stroke in the input handler.

    - #### setRepeatEnabled

          public void setRepeatEnabled(boolean repeat)

      Enables repeating. When repeating is enabled, actions will be executed multiple times. Once repeating is enabled, the input handler should read a number from the keyboard.

    - #### getRepeatCount

          public int getRepeatCount()

      Returns the number of times the next action will be repeated.

    - #### setRepeatCount

          public void setRepeatCount(int repeatCount)

      Sets the number of times the next action will be repeated.
      Parameters:
        `repeatCount` - The repeat count

    - #### getMacroRecorder

          public InputHandler.MacroRecorder getMacroRecorder()

      Returns the macro recorder. If this is non-null, all executed actions should be forwarded to the recorder.

    - #### setMacroRecorder

          public void setMacroRecorder(InputHandler.MacroRecorder recorder)

      Sets the macro recorder. If this is non-null, all executed actions should be forwarded to the recorder.
      Parameters:
        `recorder` - The macro recorder

    - #### copy

          public abstract InputHandler copy()

      Returns a copy of this input handler that shares the same key bindings. Setting key bindings in the copy will also set them in the original.

    - #### executeAction

          public void executeAction(ActionListener listener,
                                    Object source,
                                    String actionCommand)

      Executes the specified action, repeating and recording it as necessary.
      Parameters:
        `listener` - The action listener
        `source` - The event source
