Class DefaultNavigator

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, Navigator
    Direct Known Subclasses:
    DocumentNavigator, DocumentNavigator, DocumentNavigator, DocumentNavigator

    public abstract class DefaultNavigator
    extends java.lang.Object
    implements Navigator
    Default implementation of Navigator.

    This implementation is an abstract class, since some required operations cannot be implemented without additional knowledge of the object model.

    When possible, default method implementations build upon each other, to reduce the number of methods required to be implemented for each object model. All methods, of course, may be overridden, to provide more-efficient implementations.
