Annotation Interface SwingContainer
An annotation used to specify some swing-related information
for the automatically generated
BeanInfo classes.
This annotation is not used if the annotated class
has a corresponding user-defined BeanInfo class,
which does not imply the automatic analysis.
The isContainer feature attribute was introduced primarily for the Swing library.
All Swing components extend the Container
class by design, so the builder tool assumes that all Swing components
are containers. The BeanInfo classes
with the isContainer attribute allow to directly specify
whether a Swing component is a container or not.
