Method Detail

createTableau

public Tableau createTableau(Effigy effigy)
                      throws java.lang.Exception
If the specified effigy already contains a tableau named "plotTableau", then return that tableau; otherwise, create a new instance of PlotTableau in the specified effigy, and name it "plotTableau". If the specified effigy is not an instance of PlotEffigy, then do not create a tableau and return null. It is the responsibility of callers of this method to check the return value and call show().

Overrides:
createTableau in class TableauFactory
Parameters:
effigy - The effigy.
Returns:
A plot tableau, or null if one cannot be found or created.
Throws:
java.lang.Exception - If the factory should be able to create a tableau for the effigy, but something goes wrong.
