### class:FocusManager [NONE]
- All Implemented Interfaces: KeyEventDispatcher, KeyEventPostProcessor Direct Known Subclasses: DefaultFocusManager
      public abstract class FocusManager
      extends DefaultKeyboardFocusManager
This class has been obsoleted by the 1.4 focus APIs. While client code may still use this class, developers are strongly encouraged to use `java.awt.KeyboardFocusManager` and `java.awt.DefaultKeyboardFocusManager` instead. Please see How to Use the Focus Subsystem , a section in The Java Tutorial , and the Focus Specification for more information. Since: 1.2 See Also: Focus Specification

### field:FOCUS_MANAGER_CLASS_PROPERTY [NONE]
- #### FOCUS_MANAGER_CLASS_PROPERTY
      public static final String FOCUS_MANAGER_CLASS_PROPERTY
This field is obsolete, and its use is discouraged since its specification is incompatible with the 1.4 focus APIs. The current FocusManager is no longer a property of the UI. Client code must query for the current FocusManager using `KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager()`. See the Focus Specification for more information. See Also: `KeyboardFocusManager.getCurrentKeyboardFocusManager()`, Focus Specification , Constant Field Values

### constructor:FocusManager() [NONE]
- #### FocusManager
      public FocusManager()

### method:getCurrentManager() [NONE]
- #### getCurrentManager
      public static FocusManager getCurrentManager()
Returns the current `KeyboardFocusManager` instance for the calling thread's context. Returns: this thread's context's `KeyboardFocusManager` See Also: `setCurrentManager(javax.swing.FocusManager)`

### method:setCurrentManager(javax.swing.FocusManager) [NONE]
- #### setCurrentManager
      public static void setCurrentManager(FocusManager aFocusManager)
                                    throws SecurityException
Sets the current `KeyboardFocusManager` instance for the calling thread's context. If `null` is specified, then the current `KeyboardFocusManager` is replaced with a new instance of `DefaultKeyboardFocusManager`. If a `SecurityManager` is installed, the calling thread must be granted the `AWTPermission` "replaceKeyboardFocusManager" in order to replace the the current `KeyboardFocusManager`. If this permission is not granted, this method will throw a `SecurityException`, and the current `KeyboardFocusManager` will be unchanged. Parameters: `aFocusManager` - the new `KeyboardFocusManager` for this thread's context Throws: `SecurityException` - if the calling thread does not have permission to replace the current `KeyboardFocusManager` See Also: `getCurrentManager()`, `DefaultKeyboardFocusManager`

See Also: `DefaultFocusTraversalPolicy`, `KeyboardFocusManager.setDefaultFocusTraversalPolicy(java.awt.FocusTraversalPolicy)`

### method:isFocusManagerEnabled() [NONE]
- #### isFocusManagerEnabled
      @Deprecated
      public static boolean isFocusManagerEnabled()
