        public CTabItem​(CTabFolder parent,
                        int style)
        Constructs a new instance of this class given its parent (which must be a CTabFolder) and a style value describing its behavior and appearance. The item is added to the end of the items maintained by its parent.

        The style value is either one of the style constants defined in class SWT which is applicable to instances of this class, or must be built by bitwise OR'ing together (that is, using the int "|" operator) two or more of those SWT style constants. The class description lists the style constants that are applicable to the class. Style bits are also inherited from superclasses.

        Parameters:
        parent - a CTabFolder which will be the parent of the new instance (cannot be null)
        style - the style of control to construct
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException -
        • ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT - if the parent is null
        SWTException -
        • ERROR_THREAD_INVALID_ACCESS - if not called from the thread that created the parent

        Constructs a new instance of this class given its parent (which must be a CTabFolder), a style value describing its behavior and appearance, and the index at which to place it in the items maintained by its parent.

        Parameters:
        parent - a CTabFolder which will be the parent of the new instance (cannot be null)
        style - the style of control to construct
        index - the zero-relative index to store the receiver in its parent
        Throws:
        IllegalArgumentException -
        • ERROR_NULL_ARGUMENT - if the parent is null
        • ERROR_INVALID_RANGE - if the index is not between 0 and the number of elements in the parent (inclusive)

    • Method Detail

      • dispose

        public void dispose()
        Description copied from class: Widget
        Disposes of the operating system resources associated with the receiver and all its descendants. After this method has been invoked, the receiver and all descendants will answer true when sent the message isDisposed(). Any internal connections between the widgets in the tree will have been removed to facilitate garbage collection. This method does nothing if the widget is already disposed.

        NOTE: This method is not called recursively on the descendants of the receiver. This means that, widget implementers can not detect when a widget is being disposed of by re-implementing this method, but should instead listen for the Dispose event.

        Overrides:
        dispose in class Widget

        public void setToolTipText​(String string)
        Sets the receiver's tool tip text to the argument, which may be null indicating that the default tool tip for the control will be shown. For a control that has a default tool tip, such as the Tree control on Windows, setting the tool tip text to an empty string replaces the default, causing no tool tip text to be shown.

        Parameters:
        string - the new tool tip text (or null)
        Throws:
        SWTException -
        • ERROR_WIDGET_DISPOSED - if the receiver has been disposed
