Defines a framework for structured drawing editors and provides default implementations.

Package Contents

All key contracts of the framework are defined by Java interfaces. For each interface exists an abstract class, which implements the event handling contract of the interface. And finally, there is at least one default implementation of each interface.

The key interfaces for the representation of a drawing are:

• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.Drawing}
• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.Figure}
• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.CompositeFigure}
• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.ConnectionFigure}
• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.Connector}

The key interface for displaying a drawing on screen is:

• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.DrawingView}

The key interfaces for editing a drawing are:

• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.DrawingEditor}
• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.Tool}
• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.Handle}

The key interfaces for loading and saving a drawing, and for providing copy and paste functionality are:

• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.InputFormat}
• {@link org.jhotdraw.draw.OutputFormat}
