Interface GraphKeys

All Known Implementing Classes:
GraphKeysPDK, GraphKeysXML

public interface GraphKeys

This is a marker interface, it defines no methods. It is intended to mark classes used to hold static constants but it is by no means limited to this. A GraphKeys instance can be used for any class that provides something useful or necessary to a graphing implementation.

One possible use of GraphKeys is as a Rendering Context Object. If an implementation has some context requirements but they are not complicated, the necessary machinery can be built into a class which in turn implements this interface. Alternately, if rendering context requirements are more complex, the GraphKeys class can be used to create or provide them.
