org.jdesktop.swingx.plaf.basic.SpinningCalendarHeaderHandler

Custom CalendarHeaderHandler which supports year-wise navigation.

The custom component used as header component of this implementation contains month-navigation buttons, a label with localized month text and a spinner for .. well ... spinning the years. There is minimal configuration control via the UIManager:

control the position of the nextMonth button: the default is at the trailing edge of the header. Option is to insert it directly after the month text, to enable set a Boolean.TRUE as value for key ARROWS_SURROUNDS_MONTH.
control the focusability of the spinner's text field: the default is false. To enable set a Boolean.TRUE as value for key FOCUSABLE_SPINNER_TEXT.

Note: this header is not used by default. To make it the per-application default register it with the UIManager, like

 UIManager.put(CalendarHeaderHandler.uiControllerID,  "org.jdesktop.swingx.plaf.basic.SpinningCalendarHeaderHandler");

PENDING JW: implement and bind actions for keyboard navigation. These are potentially different from navigation by mouse: need to move the selection along with the scrolling?

        // create combo model containing handlers to choose
        DefaultComboBoxModel model = new DefaultComboBoxModel();
        model.addElement(new DisplayInfo<CalendarHeaderHandler>("base (does nothing)", null));
        model.addElement(new DisplayInfo<CalendarHeaderHandler>(
                "default",
                new SpinningCalendarHeaderHandler()));
        model.addElement(new DisplayInfo<CalendarHeaderHandler>(
                "default (customized)",
                new DemoCalendarHeaderHandler(true, true)));
        // </snip>
        return model;
