com.sptci.echo
Class AbstractFrame<H extends AbstractHeader>

java.lang.Object
  nextapp.echo.app.Component
      nextapp.echo.app.ContentPane
          com.sptci.echo.AbstractFrame<H>

Type Parameters:

H - The header component to display adjacent to the logo.

All Implemented Interfaces:

View, Serializable, Pane, PaneContainer, RenderIdSupport

Direct Known Subclasses:

Frame, MenuFrame

public abstract class AbstractFrame<H extends AbstractHeader>
extends ContentPane
implements View

A standard content pane that displays a AbstractHeader component at the top. Note that in general it is not easy to over-ride the init() method of this component due to the over-ridden add(nextapp.echo.app.Component) methods.

Note: Style properties are based on the class name of Frame for simplicity and backwards compatibility with original Frame only implementation.
