## javax.swing.plaf.metal
Class MetalIconFactory

    java.lang.Object
      javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalIconFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:
  Serializable

    public class MetalIconFactory

extends Object
implements Serializable

Factory object that vends `Icon`s for the JavaTM look and feel (Metal). These icons are used extensively in Metal via the defaults mechanism. While other look and feels often use GIFs for icons, creating icons in code facilitates switching to other themes.

Each method in this class returns either an `Icon` or `null`, where `null` implies that there is no default icon.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeansTM has been added to the `java.beans` package. Please see `XMLEncoder`.
