ActionMap provides mappings from
Objects
(called keys or Action names)
to Actions.
An ActionMap is usually used with an InputMap
to locate a particular action
when a key is pressed. As with InputMap,
an ActionMap can have a parent
that is searched for keys not defined in the ActionMap.
As with InputMap if you create a cycle, eg:
ActionMap am = new ActionMap(); ActionMap bm = new ActionMap(): am.setParent(bm); bm.setParent(am);some of the methods will cause a StackOverflowError to be thrown.
