java.awt.BorderLayout (JDK 1.0)

This class implements the LayoutManager interface to lay out Component objects in a Container. The BorderLayout arranges components that have been added to their Container (using the Container.add() method) with the names "North," "South," "East," "West," and "Center." These named components are arranged along the edges and in the center of the container. The hgap and vgap arguments to the BorderLayout constructor specify the desired horizontal and vertical spacing between adjacent components.

Note that applications should never call the LayoutManager methods of this class directly; the Container for which the BorderLayout is registered does this.

 // Public Constructors public BorderLayout();
