AccImpl is Flex's base accessibility implementation class for MX and Spark components.

It is a subclass of the Flash Player's AccessibilityImplementation class.

When an MX or Spark component is created, its accessibilityImplementation property is set to an instance of a subclass of this class. The Flash Player then uses this object to allow MSAA clients such as screen readers to see and manipulate the component. See the flash.accessibility.AccessibilityImplementation class for additional information about accessibility implementation classes and MSAA.

Children

The Flash Player does not support a true hierarchy of accessible objects. If a DisplayObject has an accessibilityImplementation object, then the accessibilityImplementation objects of its children are ignored. However, the Player does allow a component's accessibility implementation class to expose MSAA information for its internal parts. (For example, a List exposes MSAA information about its items.)

The number of children (internal parts) and the child IDs used to identify them are determined by the getChildIDArray() method. In the Player's AccessibilityImplementation base class, this method simply returns null. Flex's AccImpl class overrides it to return an empty array. It also provides a protected utility method, createChildIDArray() which subclasses with internal parts can use in their overrides.

Role

The MSAA Role of a component and its internal parts is determined by the get_accRole() method. In the Player's AccessibilityImplementation base class, this method throws a runtime error, since subclasses are expected to override it. Flex's AccImpl class has a protected role property which subclasses generally set in their constructor, and it overrides get_accRole() to return this property.

Name

The MSAA Name of a component and its internal parts is determined by the get_accName() method. In the Player's AccessibilityImplementation base class, this method simply returns null. Flex's AccImpl class overrides it to construct a name as follows, starting with an empty string and separating added portions with a single space:

• If a simple child (e.g., combo or list box item) is being requested, only the child's default name is returned. The rest of the steps below apply only to the component itself (childID 0).
• If the component is inside a Form:
  • If the Form has a FormHeading and the component is inside a FormItem, the heading text is added. Developers wishing to avoid this should set the accessibilityName of the FormHeading to a space (" ").
  • If the field is required, the locale-dependent string "required field" is added.
  • If the component is inside a FormItem, the FormItem label text is added. Developers wishing to avoid this should set the accessibilityName of the FormItem to a space (" ").
• The component's name is then determined thus:
  • If the component's accessibilityName (i.e., accessibilityProperties.name) is a space, no component name is added.
  • Otherwise, if the component's name is specified (i.e., is not null and not empty) then it is added.
  • Otherwise, a protected getName() method, defined by AccImpl and implemented by each subclass, is called to provide a default name. (For example, ButtonAccImpl implements getName() to specify that a Button's default name is the label that it displays.) If not empty, the return value of getName() is added.
  • Otherwise (if getName() returned empty), if the component's toolTip property is set, that String is added.
  • If the component's errorString property is set, that String is added.

Description

The MSAA Description is determined solely by a component's accessibilityProperties object and not by its accessibilityImplementation object. Therefore there is no logic in AccessibilityImplementation or AccImpl or any subclasses of AccImpl related to the description. The normal way to set the description in Flex is via the accessibilityDescription property on UIComponent, which simply sets accessibilityProperties.description.

State

The MSAA State of a component and its internal parts is determined by the get_accState() method. In the Player's AccessibilityImplementation base class, this method throws a runtime error, since subclasses are expected to override it. Flex's AccImpl class does not override it, but provides a protected utility method, getState(), for subclasses to use in their overrides. The getState() method determines the state as a combination of

• STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE (when enabled is false on this component or any ancestor)
• STATE_SYSTEM_FOCUSABLE
• STATE_SYSTEM_FOCUSED (when the component itself is focused, not set for any subparts the component may have)

Note that by default all components are assumed to be focusable and thus the accessibility implementation classes for non-focusable components like Label must clear this state flag. When a component has a state of unavailable, the focusable state is removed by the accessibility implementation class.

Value

The MSAA Value of a component and its internal parts is determined by the get_accValue() method. In the Player's AccessibilityImplementation base class, this method simply returns null. Flex's AccImpl class does not override it, but subclasses for components like TextInput do.

Location

The MSAA Location for a component's internal parts, but not the component itself, is determined by the get_accLocation() method. This method is never called with a childID of 0; instead, the Flash Player determines the MSAA Location of a component based on its bounding rectangle as determined by getBounds(). Flex's AccImpl class does not override this method, but subclasses for components with internal parts do.

Default Action

The MSAA DefaultAction for a component and its internal parts is determined by the get_accDefaultAction() method. In the Player's AccessibilityImplementation base class, this method simply returns null. Flex's AccImpl class does not override it, but subclasses with default actions do. These subclasses also override AccessibilityImplementation's accDoDefaultAction() method to perform the default action that they advertise.

Other

The MSAA events EVENT_OBJECT_SHOW and EVENT_OBJECT_HIDE are sent when the object is shown or hidden. The corresponding states for these are covered by the Flash Player which does not render any MSAA components that are hidden. When the component is shown the states mentioned for AccImpl are used.
