android.graphics.NinePatch

java.lang.Object
	android.graphics.NinePatch

The NinePatch class permits drawing a bitmap in nine sections. The four corners are unscaled; the four edges are scaled in one axis, and the middle is scaled in both axes. Normally, the middle is transparent so that the patch can provide a selection about a rectangle.

	Object	clone()
		Answers a new instance of the same class as the receiver, whose slots have been filled in with the values in the slots of the receiver.
	boolean	equals(Object o)
		Compares the argument to the receiver, and answers true if they represent the same object using a class specific comparison.
	void	finalize()
		Called by the virtual machine when there are no longer any (non-weak) references to the receiver.
final	Class	getClass()
		Answers the unique instance of java.lang.Class which represents the class of the receiver.
	int	hashCode()
		Answers an integer hash code for the receiver.
final	void	notify()
		Causes one thread which is `wait` ing on the receiver to be made ready to run.
final	void	notifyAll()
		Causes all threads which are `wait` ing on the receiver to be made ready to run.
	String	toString()
		Answers a string containing a concise, human-readable description of the receiver.
final	void	wait(long time, int frac)
		Causes the thread which sent this message to be made not ready to run either pending some change in the receiver (as indicated by `notify` or `notifyAll`) or the expiration of the timeout.
final	void	wait(long time)
		Causes the thread which sent this message to be made not ready to run either pending some change in the receiver (as indicated by `notify` or `notifyAll`) or the expiration of the timeout.
final	void	wait()
