ActionMap provides mappings from Objects (called keys or Action names) to Actions. An ActionMap is usually used with an InputMap to locate a particular action when a key is pressed. As with InputMap, an ActionMap can have a parent that is searched for keys not defined in the ActionMap.

As with InputMap if you create a cycle, eg:

  ActionMap am = new ActionMap();
  ActionMap bm = new ActionMap():
  am.setParent(bm);
  bm.setParent(am);
some of the methods will cause a StackOverflowError to be thrown.
