Package com.install4j.api.styles


package com.install4j.api.styles
This package contains the interface and abstract base class for styles.

See the API overview for general remarks on how to use the install4j API.

The Style interface contains all methods that have to be implemented by an actual style. When you develop your own styles, it is recommended that you extend the abstract base classes in this package rather than implement the interface itself.

Styles can nest other styles with help of the StyleManager. Since there are a number of delegations that have to be implemented correctly and the life-cycle of the style has to be taken into account, it is advisable to use WrapperStyle to nest a single style. To get more help with nesting styles, see NestedStyleContainer.
