GraphicsConfigTemplate (Java SE 10 & JDK 10 )

java.lang.Object
- java.awt.GraphicsConfigTemplate

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable
```
public abstract class GraphicsConfigTemplate
extends Object
implements Serializable
```
The GraphicsConfigTemplate class is used to obtain a valid GraphicsConfiguration. A user instantiates one of these objects and then sets all non-default attributes as desired. The GraphicsDevice.getBestConfiguration(java.awt.GraphicsConfigTemplate) method found in the GraphicsDevice class is then called with this GraphicsConfigTemplate. A valid GraphicsConfiguration is returned that meets or exceeds what was requested in the GraphicsConfigTemplate.

Since:

1.2

- Field Detail
  - REQUIRED
```
public static final int REQUIRED
```
    Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. States that this feature is required for the GraphicsConfiguration object. If this feature is not available, do not select the GraphicsConfiguration object.
    
    See Also:
    
    Constant Field Values
  - PREFERRED
```
public static final int PREFERRED
```
    Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. States that this feature is desired for the GraphicsConfiguration object. A selection with this feature is preferred over a selection that does not include this feature, although both selections can be considered valid matches.
    
    See Also:
    
    Constant Field Values
  - UNNECESSARY
```
public static final int UNNECESSARY
```
    Value used for "Enum" (Integer) type. States that this feature is not necessary for the selection of the GraphicsConfiguration object. A selection without this feature is preferred over a selection that includes this feature since it is not used.

  - getBestConfiguration
```
public abstract GraphicsConfiguration getBestConfiguration(GraphicsConfiguration[] gc)
```
    Returns the "best" configuration possible that passes the criteria defined in the GraphicsConfigTemplate.
    
    Parameters:
    
    gc - the array of GraphicsConfiguration objects to choose from.
    
    Returns:
    
    a GraphicsConfiguration object that is the best configuration possible.

  - isGraphicsConfigSupported
```
public abstract boolean isGraphicsConfigSupported(GraphicsConfiguration gc)
```
    Returns a boolean indicating whether or not the specified GraphicsConfiguration can be used to create a drawing surface that supports the indicated features.
    
    Parameters:
    
    gc - the GraphicsConfiguration object to test
    
    Returns:
    
    true if this GraphicsConfiguration object can be used to create surfaces that support the indicated features; false if the GraphicsConfiguration can not be used to create a drawing surface usable by this Java(tm) API.
