Detailed Description
This sample differs from the basic sample in that it declares (in CustomLedClass) a custom subclass, CustomLed
, of the predefined JTGO business class ilog.tgo.model.IltLed. CustomLed
extends its parent by adding a status
attribute. This attribute is:
- mapped to the foreground color of the LED by a value map associated with the property
foreground
, - used as the tooltip text of the LED with the property
toolTipText
.
