public class JPopupMenu

extends JComponent

implements Accessible, MenuElement

An implementation of a Popup Menu -- a small window which pops up and displays a series of choices. A JPopupMenu is used for the menu that appears when the user selects an item on the menu bar. It is also used for "pull-right" menu that appears when the selects a menu item that activates it. Finally, a JPopupMenu can also be used anywhere else you want a menu to appear -- for example, when the user right-clicks in a specified area.

For the keyboard keys used by this component in the standard Look and Feel (L&F) renditions, see the JPopupMenu key assignments.

Warning: serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between Swing1.0 applications. It will not be possible to load serialized Swing1.0 objects with future releases of Swing. The JDK1.2 release of Swing will be the compatibility baseline for the serialized form of Swing objects.
