Interface Action2

All Superinterfaces:

javax.swing.Action, java.awt.event.ActionListener, java.util.EventListener

All Known Implementing Classes:

TextAction2

public interface Action2
extends javax.swing.Action

This is a countermeasure for an improper designing of Action.NAME.

The Action.NAME property is treated as a caption when it is set to a menu item. In the meanwhile, it is treated as its identifier which is used when users need to retrieve the menu items from a list. That means you cannot create two or more menu items which have a same caption string.

Use Action2#NAME property to set an independent caption string. This requires additional process : calling processXXX() methods before the menu item is shown. This is very ugly but I believe the cost is less than its benefit.
