Method Detail

isCompleteCheck

public boolean isCompleteCheck()

Initially there was a rule that it is safe to create and use Swing components until they are realized but this rule is not valid any more, and now it is recommended to interact with Swing from EDT only.

That's why completeCheck flag is used - if you test the old program switch it to false, but new applications should be tested with completeCheck set to true*

Returns:

true or false. By default, it is false.

setCompleteCheck

public void setCompleteCheck(boolean completeCheck)

Parameters:

completeCheck - true or false.
