Tutorial Details:
There are times when you want a modal window that implements window-specific modality rather than the application-wide modality provided by the standard JDialog class. This article explains the workings of the JModalWindow project, which provides two top-level components, called ModalWindows, that introduce such modality. The first ModalWindow class, JModalWindow, is a subclass of JWindow that's generally used for dialogs that block other windows. The second, JModalFrame, is a subclass of JFrame that can be used either as a blocked window or as a blocking window. Both classes implement an interface named InputBlocker.
Why create a ModalWindow instead of using the standard JDialog component? We were working on a pension-planner application to give users insight into their financial situations before and after retirement. This was done with the aid of a financial graphic. Throughout the application, help information for various pension-specific terms was available in a separate help window. In order to make comparisons, the user should be able to change different variables that influence pension savings. While doing this, the underlying financial graphic had to be blocked. A JDialog could have been used, but then the necessary help window would have also been blocked, and thus useless. Furthermore, the title bar presented by JDialog didn't fit in with the rest of the look and feel of the application.
