Class AbstractCySwingApp

java.lang.Object
org.cytoscape.app.AbstractCyApp
org.cytoscape.app.swing.AbstractCySwingApp

@Deprecated public abstract class AbstractCySwingApp extends AbstractCyApp
Deprecated.
(As of Cytoscape 3.7) Support for simple apps will be removed in a future version of Cytoscape, please provide an OSGi bundle app instead.
The primary Swing-based app interface for Cytoscape that all Swing-based apps must extend. This extension to AbstractCyApp simply provides access to CySwingAppAdapter, which provides access to Swing specific services. All other services from CyAppAdapter will still be available.

Cytoscape Backwards Compatibility (Abstract Class): This class is abstract and meant to be extended by users. This means that we may add methods for minor version updates. Methods will only be removed for major version updates.
