public class BasicComboPopup
extends JPopupMenu
implements ComboPopup

This is an implementation of the ComboPopup interface. It is primarily for use by BasicComboBoxUI and its subclasses. BasicComboPopup extends JPopupMenu because most combo boxes use a popup menu to display the list of possible selections. BasicComboBoxUI only requires a ComboPopup, so subclasses of BasicComboBoxUI aren't required to use this class. All event handling is handled by createxxxListener() methods and internal classes. You can change the behavior of this class by overriding the createxxxListener() methods and supplying your own event listeners or subclassing from the ones supplied in this class. Inner classes for handling events: InvocationMouseHandler InvocationMouseMotionHandler InvocationKeyHandler ListSelectionHandler ListDataHandler ListMouseHandler ListMouseMotionHandler PropertyChangeHandler ItemHandler

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. A future release of Swing will provide support for long term persistence.
