- All Known Implementing Classes:
ImageIcon.AccessibleImageIcon
public interface AccessibleIcon
The
AccessibleIcon
interface should be supported by any object that
has an associated icon (e.g., buttons). This interface provides the standard
mechanism for an assistive technology to get descriptive information about
icons. Applications can determine if an object supports the
AccessibleIcon
interface by first obtaining its
AccessibleContext
(see Accessible
) and then calling the
AccessibleContext.getAccessibleIcon()
method. If the return value is
not null
, the object supports this interface.- Since:
