                     maximum=int)  public    protect 

Sets the values for this Scrollbar. This method enforces the following constraints:

• The maximum must be greater than the minimum
• The value must be greater than or equal to the minumum and less than or equal to the maximum minus the visible amount
• The visible amount must be greater than 1 and less than or equal to the difference between the maximum and minimum values.

Values which do not meet these criteria are quietly coerced to the appropriate boundary value.

Parameters:

value - is the position in the current window.

visible - is the amount visible per page

minimum - is the minimum value of the scrollbar

maximum - is the maximum value of the scrollbar

    method addAdjustmentListener(l=AdjustmentListener)  public     

Adds the specified adjustment listener to recieve adjustment events from this scrollbar.

Parameters:

l - the adjustment listener

    method removeAdjustmentListener(l=AdjustmentListener)  public     

Removes the specified adjustment listener so that it no longer receives adjustment events from this scrollbar..

    method processEvent(e=AWTEvent)  Inheritable     

Processes events on this scrollbar. If the event is an AdjustmentEvent, it invokes the processAdjustmentEvent method, else it invokes its superclass's processEvent.

Parameters:

e - the event

Overrides:

processEvent in class Component

    method processAdjustmentEvent(e=AdjustmentEvent)  Inheritable     

Processes adjustment events occurring on this scrollbar by dispatching them to any registered AdjustmentListener objects. NOTE: This method will not be called unless adjustment events are enabled for this component; this happens when one of the following occurs: a) An AdjustmentListener object is registered via addAdjustmentListener() b) Adjustment events are enabled via enableEvents()

Parameters:

e - the adjustment event
