[Java] Class ActionMapAction

java.lang.Object
  javax.swing.AbstractAction
      com.wordpress.tipsforjava.swing.ActionMapAction

public class ActionMapAction
extends AbstractAction

The ActionMapAction class is a convenience class that allows you to use an installed Action as an Action or ActionListener on a separate component. It can be used on components like JButton or JMenuItem that support an Action as a property of the component. Or it can be added to the same above components as an ActionListener. The benefit of this class is that a new ActionEvent will be created such that the source of the event is the component the Action belongs to, not the component that was "clicked". Otherwise in many cases a ClassCastException will be thrown when the Action is invoked.
