org.universAAL.ui.handler.gui.swing.Renderer

All Implemented Interfaces:

Runnable

public class Renderer
extends Thread

Coordinator Class for Swing GUI Handler. It will provide all of the needed properties and constants for all other classes, as well as acting as placeholder for all the needed classes to work. This placeholding and mutual reference (between contained and container classes) enables the renderer to be loaded more than once per instance.
