An extended version of java.awt.Frame that adds support for
the JFC/Swing component architecture.
You can find task-oriented documentation about using JFrame
in The Java Tutorial, in the section
How to Make Frames.


The JFrame class is slightly incompatible with Frame.
Like all other JFC/Swing top-level containers,
a JFrame contains a JRootPane as its only child.
The content pane provided by the root pane should,
as a rule, contain
all the non-menu components displayed by the JFrame.
This is different from the AWT Frame case. As a convenience, the add, remove, and setLayout methods of this class are overridden, so that they delegate calls to the corresponding methods of the ContentPane. For example, you can add a child component to a frame as follows: 
      frame.add(child);

 And the child will be added to the contentPane. The content pane will always be non-null. Attempting to set it to null will cause the JFrame to throw an exception. The default content pane will have a BorderLayout manager set on it. Refer to RootPaneContainer for details on adding, removing and setting the LayoutManager
of a JFrame.


Unlike a Frame, a JFrame has some notion of how to respond when the user attempts to close the window. The default behavior is to simply hide the JFrame when the user closes the window. To change the default behavior, you invoke the method setDefaultCloseOperation. To make the JFrame behave the same as a Frame
instance, use
setDefaultCloseOperation(WindowConstants.DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE).


For more information on content panes
and other features that root panes provide,
see Using Top-Level Containers in The Java Tutorial.


In a multi-screen environment, you can create a JFrame on a different screen device. See Frame for more information. 

Warning: Swing is not thread safe. For more
information see Swing's Threading
Policy.


Warning:
Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
the same version of Swing.  As of 1.4, support for long term storage
of all JavaBeans™
has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.

Sets the operation that will happen by default when
the user initiates a "close" on this frame.
You must specify one of the following choices:




    

  • DO_NOTHING_ON_CLOSE
(defined in WindowConstants):
Don't do anything; require the
program to handle the operation in the windowClosing
method of a registered WindowListener object.

  • HIDE_ON_CLOSE
(defined in WindowConstants):
Automatically hide the frame after
invoking any registered WindowListener
objects.

  • DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE
(defined in WindowConstants):
Automatically hide and dispose the
frame after invoking any registered WindowListener
objects.

  • EXIT_ON_CLOSE
(defined in JFrame):
Exit the application using the System
exit method.  Use this only in applications.




The value is set to HIDE_ON_CLOSE by default. Changes
to the value of this property cause the firing of a property
change event, with property name "defaultCloseOperation".


Note: When the last displayable window within the
Java virtual machine (VM) is disposed of, the VM may
terminate.  See 
AWT Threading Issues for more information.

Params:
  • operation – the operation which should be performed when the
       user closes the frame
Throws:
  • IllegalArgumentException – if defaultCloseOperation value
            isn't one of the above valid values
  • SecurityException – 
       if EXIT_ON_CLOSE has been specified and the
       SecurityManager will

Sets the transferHandler property, which is a mechanism to support transfer of data into this component. Use null if the component does not support data transfer operations. 
 If the system property suppressSwingDropSupport is false (the default) and the current drop target on this component is either null or not a user-set drop target, this method will change the drop target as follows: If newHandler is null it will clear the drop target. If not null it will install a new DropTarget. 
 Note: When used with JFrame, TransferHandler only provides data import capability, as the data export related methods are currently typed to JComponent.

     * Sets the {@code transferHandler} property, which is a mechanism to
     * support transfer of data into this component. Use {@code null}

     * If the system property {@code suppressSwingDropSupport} is {@code false}
     * (the default) and the current drop target on this component is either
     * {@code null} or not a user-set drop target, this method will change the
