A widget that represents a simple <a> element.

If you want use this anchor only for changing history states, use Hyperlink instead.

Built-in Bidi Text Support

This widget is capable of automatically adjusting its direction according to its content. This feature is controlled by setDirectionEstimator(boolean) or passing a DirectionEstimator parameter to the constructor, and is off by default.

public boolean getWordWrap()

Description copied from interface: HasWordWrap

Gets whether word-wrapping is enabled.

Specified by:

getWordWrap in interface HasWordWrap

Returns:

true if word-wrapping is enabled.

setAccessKey

public void setAccessKey(char key)

Description copied from interface: Focusable

Sets the widget's 'access key'. This key is used (in conjunction with a browser-specific modifier key) to automatically focus the widget.

Specified by:

setAccessKey in interface Focusable

Overrides:

setAccessKey in class FocusWidget

Parameters:

key - the widget's access key

setDirection

@Deprecated
public void setDirection(HasDirection.Direction direction)

Deprecated. Use setDirectionEstimator(boolean) and / or pass explicit direction to setText(java.lang.String), setHTML(com.google.gwt.safehtml.shared.SafeHtml) instead

Description copied from interface: HasDirection

Sets the directionality for a widget.

Specified by:

setDirection in interface HasDirection

Parameters:

direction - RTL if the directionality should be set to right-to-left, LTR if the directionality should be set to left-to-right DEFAULT if the directionality should not be explicitly set

setDirectionEstimator

public void setDirectionEstimator(boolean enabled)

Toggles on / off direction estimation.

See note at setDirectionEstimator(DirectionEstimator).

Specified by:

setDirectionEstimator in interface HasDirectionEstimator

Parameters:

enabled - Whether to enable direction estimation. If true, sets the DirectionEstimator object to a default DirectionEstimator.

setDirectionEstimator

public void setDirectionEstimator(DirectionEstimator directionEstimator)

Sets the DirectionEstimator object.

Note: DirectionEstimator should be set before the widget has any content; it's highly recommended to set it using a constructor. Reason: if the widget already has non-empty content, this will update its direction according to the new estimator's result. This may cause flicker, and thus should be avoided.

Specified by:

setDirectionEstimator in interface HasDirectionEstimator

Parameters:

directionEstimator - The DirectionEstimator to be set. null means turning off direction estimation.

setFocus

public void setFocus(boolean focused)

Description copied from interface: Focusable

Explicitly focus/unfocus this widget. Only one widget can have focus at a time, and the widget that does will receive all keyboard events. NOTE: Most browsers fire FocusEvents asynchronously. Especially within GWT tests, you'll need to make your test asynchronous to properly do verifications. See GWTTestCase#delayTestFinish for more information on how to do this.

Specified by:

setFocus in interface Focusable

Overrides:

setFocus in class FocusWidget

Parameters:

focused - whether this widget should take focus or release it

setHorizontalAlignment

public void setHorizontalAlignment(HasHorizontalAlignment.HorizontalAlignmentConstant align)

Description copied from interface: HasHorizontalAlignment

Sets the horizontal alignment.

Use null to clear horizontal alignment, allowing it to be determined by the standard HTML mechanisms such as inheritance and CSS rules.

Specified by:

setHorizontalAlignment in interface HasHorizontalAlignment

Parameters:

align - the horizontal alignment ( HasHorizontalAlignment.ALIGN_LEFT, HasHorizontalAlignment.ALIGN_CENTER, HasHorizontalAlignment.ALIGN_RIGHT, HasHorizontalAlignment.ALIGN_JUSTIFY, HasHorizontalAlignment.ALIGN_LOCALE_START, or HasHorizontalAlignment.ALIGN_LOCALE_END).

setHref

public void setHref(SafeUri href)

Sets the anchor's href (the url to which it links).

Parameters:

href - the anchor's href

setHref

public void setHref(java.lang.String href)

Sets the anchor's href (the url to which it links).

Parameters:

href - the anchor's href

setHTML

public void setHTML(SafeHtml html)

Description copied from interface: HasSafeHtml

Sets this object's contents via known-safe HTML.

The object will behave exactly the same as when a widget's HasHTML.setHTML(String) method is invoked; however the SafeHtml passed to this method observes the contract that it can be used in an HTML context without causing unsafe script execution. Thus, unlike HasHTML.setHTML(String), using this method cannot result in Cross-Site Scripting security vulnerabilities.

Specified by:

setHTML in interface HasSafeHtml

Parameters:

html - the object's new HTML, represented as a SafeHtml object

setHTML

public void setHTML(java.lang.String html)

Description copied from interface: HasHTML

Sets this object's contents via HTML. Use care when setting an object's HTML; it is an easy way to expose script-based security problems. Consider using HasText.setText(String) whenever possible.

Specified by:

setHTML in interface HasHTML

Parameters:

html - the object's new HTML

setHTML

public void setHTML(SafeHtml html,
                    HasDirection.Direction dir)

Description copied from interface: HasDirectionalSafeHtml

Sets this object's html, also declaring its direction.

Specified by:

setHTML in interface HasDirectionalSafeHtml

Parameters:

html - the object's new html

dir - the html's direction

setName

public void setName(java.lang.String name)

Description copied from interface: HasName

Sets the widget's name.

Specified by:

setName in interface HasName

Parameters:

name - the widget's new name

setTabIndex

public void setTabIndex(int index)

Description copied from interface: Focusable

Sets the widget's position in the tab index. If more than one widget has the same tab index, each such widget will receive focus in an arbitrary order. Setting the tab index to -1 will cause this widget to be removed from the tab order.

Specified by:

setTabIndex in interface Focusable

Overrides:

setTabIndex in class FocusWidget

Parameters:

index - the widget's tab index

setTarget

public void setTarget(java.lang.String target)

Sets the anchor's target frame (the frame in which navigation will occur when the link is selected).

Parameters:

target - the target frame

setText

public void setText(java.lang.String text)

Description copied from interface: HasText

Sets this object's text.

Specified by:

setText in interface HasText

Parameters:

text - the object's new text

setText

public void setText(java.lang.String text,
                    HasDirection.Direction dir)

Specified by:

setText in interface HasDirectionalText

Parameters:

text - the object's new text

dir - the text's direction

setWordWrap

public void setWordWrap(boolean wrap)

Description copied from interface: HasWordWrap

Sets whether word-wrapping is enabled.
