20、onal Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established
21、by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work. In the field
22、of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for th
23、e different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives). Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO an
24、d IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

28、 application programming interface (API) Part 6: Java accessibility application programming interface (API) PD ISO/IEC TR 13066-6:2014 ISO/IEC TR 13066-6:2014(E) vi ISO/IEC 2014 All rights reserved Introduction Assistive technology (AT) is specialized information technology (IT) hardware or software
29、 that is added to or incorporated within a system that increases accessibility for an individual. In other words, it is special purpose IT that interoperates with another IT product enabling a person with a disability to use the IT product. Interoperability involves the ability to add or replace Ass
30、istive Technology (AT) to existing components of Information Technology (IT) systems. Interoperability between AT and IT is best facilitated via the use of standardized, public interfaces for all IT components. This part of ISO/IEC 13066 describes the Java accessibility API that can be used as a fra
31、mework to support software to software IT-AT interoperability on the multiple computing platforms. It also describes the Java Access Bridge for Windows for enabling AT on Windows to interoperate with accessible Java applications on the Microsoft Windows platform and the Java Access Bridge for GNOME
32、for enabling AT on UNIX and GNU/Linux platforms running the GNOME graphical desktop to interoperate with accessible Java applications on UNIX and GNU/Linux environments. NOTE 1 GNOME is both a common and accessible graphical desktop for Linux / UNIX graphical environments, as well as an open source
33、project delivering a collection of software libraries and applications. It was formerly an acronym meaning “GNU Network Object Model Environment”. NOTE 2 The code examples contained in this document are illustrative in nature. With rare exception, they do not include error checking or exception hand
34、ling, and should be treated more like pseudo-code than as cookbook templates that can use directly in applications or assistive technologies.

35、ve technology (AT) Part 6: Java accessibility application programming interface (API) 1 Scope This part of ISO/IEC 13066 provides an overview to the structure and terminology of the Java accessibility API It will provide: A description of the overall architecture and terminology of the API; Further
36、introductory explanations regarding the content and use of the API beyond those found in Annex A of ISO/IEC 13066-1; An overview of the main properties, including of: user interface elements; how to get and set focus; of communication mechanisms in the API; a discussion of design considerations for
37、the API (e.g. pointers to external sources of information on accessibility guidance related to using the API); information on extending the API (and where this is appropriate); an introduction to the programming interface of the API (including pointers to external sources of information). an introdu
38、ction to the Java Access Bridge for Windows and the Java Access Bridge for GNOME It will provide this information as an introduction to the Java API to assist: IT system level developers who create custom controls and/or interface to them; AT developers involved in programming “hardware to software“
39、 and “software to software“ interactions 2 Terms and Definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. 2.1 accessible object a part of the user interface that is accessible by and exposes the Java accessibility API Note 1 to entry An accessible object is repre
40、sented by an object of the “AccessibleContext” Java class PD ISO/IEC TR 13066-6:2014 ISO/IEC TR 13066-6:2014(E) 2 ISO/IEC 2014 All rights reserved 2.2 application programming interface API collection of invocation methods and associated parameters used by one piece of software to request actions fro
41、m another piece of software SOURCE: ISO/IEC 18012-1 Information technology Home electronic system Guidelines for product interoperability Introduction, definition 3.1.1 2.3 application software software that is specific to the solution of an application problem SOURCE: ISO/IEC 2381-1, definition 10.
42、04.01 EXAMPLE A spreadsheet program is application software. 2.4 Assistive Technology (AT) hardware or software that is added to or incorporated within a system that increases accessibility for an individual EXAMPLE Braille displays, screen readers, screen magnification software and eye tracking dev
43、ices are assistive technologies. SOURCE: ISO 9241-171, definition 3.5 Note 1 to entry Within this document, where Assistive Technology (and its abbreviation AT) is used, it is to be considered as both singular and plural, without distinction. If it is to be used in the singular only, it will be prec
44、eded by the article “an“ (i.e. an Assistive Technology). If it is to be used in the plural only, it will be preceded by the adjective “multiple“ (i.e. multiple AT). 2.5 class a term from object oriented programming, also used in the Java programming language, denoting the definition/description of a
45、n object containing code (methods) and data (fields) EXAMPLE All objects in object oriented programming belong to a class (e.g. a specific window object is an instance of the window class). Note 1 to entry Much of the Java accessibility API consists of these class definitions, and implementations of
46、 the Java accessibility API are instances of these classes. Note 2 to entry In objected oriented programming and specifically in the Java programming language classes can be “subclassed” (e.g. a dialog box class is a subclass of the more generic window class), and portions of the Java accessibility
47、API are implemented as subclasses (e.g. AccessibleRole, AccessibleState, and AccessibleRelation are all subclasses of the more generic AccessibleBundle class). 2.6 compatibility the capability of a functional unit to meet the requirements of a specified interface without appreciable modification SOU
