A generic interface for a mutable collection of unique attributes. Implementations will probably want to provide a constructor of the form:

public XXXAttributeSet(ConstAttributeSet source);

public interface MutableAttributeSet extends AttributeSet {
Creates a new attribute set similar to this one except that it contains an attribute with the given name and value. The object must be immutable, or not mutated by any client.
Params:
  • name – the name
  • value – the value

Params:
  • attributes – the set of attributes

public void addAttributes(AttributeSet attributes);
Removes an attribute with the given name.
Params:
  • name – the attribute name
/** * Removes an attribute with the given {@code name}. * * @param name the attribute name */
public void removeAttribute(Object name);
Removes an attribute set with the given names.
Params:
  • names – the set of names
/** * Removes an attribute set with the given {@code names}. * * @param names the set of names */
public void removeAttributes(Enumeration<?> names);
Removes a set of attributes with the given name.
Params:
  • attributes – the set of attributes
/** * Removes a set of attributes with the given {@code name}. * * @param attributes the set of attributes */
public void removeAttributes(AttributeSet attributes);
Sets the resolving parent. This is the set of attributes to resolve through if an attribute isn't defined locally.
Params:
  • parent – the parent
/** * Sets the resolving parent. This is the set * of attributes to resolve through if an attribute * isn't defined locally. * * @param parent the parent */
