### Constructor Detail

#### ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints

    public ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints(java.awt.Component component)

Creates an `ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints` object with all of its fields set to their default value. For further information about the default values see `ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints(int, int, int, java.awt.Component)`.

Parameters:
  `component` - The `Component` this constraints object describes

#### ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints

    public ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints(int row,
                                 java.awt.Component component)

Creates an `ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints` object with all of its fields set to their default value except of the row which is specified. For further information about the default values see `ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints(int, int, int, java.awt.Component)`.

Parameters:
  `row` - The row in which a component starts its display area. First row is 0
  `component` - The `Component` this constraints object d describes
Throws:
  `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - If row < 0

#### ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints

    public ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints(int row,
                                 int colspan,
                                 int rowspan,
                                 java.awt.Component component)

Creates an `ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints` object with all of its fields set to the passed-in arguments.

Parameters:
  `row` - The row in which a component starts its display area. First row is 0. Default value is 0.
  `colspan` - The number of cells in a row for the component's display area. Use `REMAINDER` to specify that the component's display area will be from its grid position to the last cell in the row. Default value is 1.
  `rowspan` - The number of cells in a column for the component's display area. Use `REMAINDER` to specify that the component's display area will be from its grid position to the last cell in the column. Default value is 1.
  `component` - The `Component` this constraints object describes
Throws:
  `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - If row < 0
  `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - If colspan < 1
  `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - If rowspan < 1

### Method Detail

#### getRow

    public int getRow()

Returns:
  The row in which the component starts its display area.

#### getCol

    public int getCol()

Returns:
  The column in which the component starts its display area.

#### getColspan

    public int getColspan()

Returns:
  The number of cells in a row for the component's display area or `REMAINDER` if the component's display area will be from its grid position to the last cell in the row.

#### getRowspan

    public int getRowspan()

Returns:
  The number of cells in a column for the component's display area or `REMAINDER` if the component's display area will be from its grid position to the last cell in the column.

#### isPlaceholder

    public boolean isPlaceholder()

Returns:
  Whether this constraints object is a placeholder or not

#### equals

    public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The `equals` method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

- It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value `x`, `x.equals(x)` returns `true`.
- It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values `x` and `y`, `x.equals(y)` returns `true` if and only if `y.equals(x)` returns `true`.
- It is transitive: for any non-null reference values `x`, `y`, and `z`, if `x.equals(y)` returns `true` and `y.equals(z)` returns `true`, then `x.equals(z)` returns `true`.
- It is consistent: for any non-null reference values `x` and `y`, multiple invocations of `x.equals(y)` consistently return `true` or consistently return `false`, provided no information used in `equals` comparisons on the objects is modified.
- For any non-null reference value `x`, `x.equals(null)` returns `false`.

The `equals` method for class `ExtendedGridLayoutConstraints` returns `true` if and only if the constraints objects describe the same `Component`

Overrides:
  `equals` in class `java.lang.Object`
Parameters:
  `o` - the reference object with which to compare.
Returns:
  `true` if this object is the same as the o argument; `false` otherwise.

  `hashCode()`, `java.util.Hashtable`

#### hashCode

    public int hashCode()

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hashtables such as those provided by `java.util.Hashtable`.

The general contract of `hashCode` is:

- Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the `hashCode` method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in `equals` comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
- If two objects are equal according to the `equals(Object)` method, then calling the `hashCode` method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
- It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the `java.lang.Object#equals(java.lang.Object)` method, then calling the `hashCode` method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hashtables.

Overrides:
  `hashCode` in class `java.lang.Object`
Returns:
  a hash code value for this object.
See Also:
  `equals(java.lang.Object)`, `java.util.Hashtable`

#### toString

    public java.lang.String toString()

Returns a string representation of the object. In general, the `toString` method returns a string that "textually represents" this object. The result should be a concise but informative representation that is easy for a person to read.

Overrides:
  `toString` in class `java.lang.Object`
Returns:
  a string representation of the object.
