## Class DefaultDesktopManager

- java.lang.Object
- - javax.swing.DefaultDesktopManager

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    Serializable, DesktopManager

      public class DefaultDesktopManager
      extends Object
      implements DesktopManager, Serializable

  This is an implementation of the `DesktopManager`. It currently implements the basic behaviors for managing `JInternalFrame`s in an arbitrary parent. `JInternalFrame`s that are not children of a `JDesktop` will use this component to handle their desktop-like actions.

  This class provides a policy for the various JInternalFrame methods, it is not meant to be called directly rather the various JInternalFrame methods will call into the DesktopManager.

    `JDesktopPane`, `JInternalFrame`
