layout manager

A layout manager implements a layout policy that defines relationships between components in a container. The placement and sizing of components, including resizing of the GUI is taken care by layout managers in Java. A layout manager works in conjunction with a container holding the components. The Java AWT provides five layout managers and all implement the Layout Manager interface: FlowLayout , GridLayout , BorderLayout , CardLayout and GridBagLayout.
