Package java.beans.beancontext

Provides classes and interfaces relating to bean context. A bean context is a container for beans and defines the execution environment for the beans it contains. There can be several beans in a single bean context, and a bean context can be nested within another bean context. This package also contains events and listener interface for beans being added and removed from a bean context.

Since:: 1.2

Interface Summary
Interface	Description
BeanContext	The BeanContext acts a logical hierarchical container for JavaBeans.
BeanContextChild	JavaBeans wishing to be nested within, and obtain a reference to their execution environment, or context, as defined by the BeanContext sub-interface shall implement this interface.
BeanContextChildComponentProxy	This interface is implemented by `BeanContextChildren` that have an AWT `Component` associated with them.
BeanContextContainerProxy	This interface is implemented by BeanContexts' that have an AWT Container associated with them.
BeanContextMembershipListener	Compliant BeanContexts fire events on this interface when the state of the membership of the BeanContext changes.
BeanContextProxy	This interface is implemented by a JavaBean that does not directly have a BeanContext(Child) associated with it (via implementing that interface or a subinterface thereof), but has a public BeanContext(Child) delegated from it.
BeanContextServiceProvider	One of the primary functions of a BeanContext is to act a as rendezvous between JavaBeans, and BeanContextServiceProviders.
BeanContextServiceProviderBeanInfo	A BeanContextServiceProvider implementor who wishes to provide explicit information about the services their bean may provide shall implement a BeanInfo class that implements this BeanInfo subinterface and provides explicit information about the methods, properties, events, etc, of their services.
BeanContextServiceRevokedListener	The listener interface for receiving `BeanContextServiceRevokedEvent` objects.
BeanContextServices	The BeanContextServices interface provides a mechanism for a BeanContext to expose generic "services" to the BeanContextChild objects within.
BeanContextServicesListener	The listener interface for receiving `BeanContextServiceAvailableEvent` objects.

Class Summary
Class	Description
BeanContextChildSupport	This is a general support class to provide support for implementing the BeanContextChild protocol.
BeanContextEvent	`BeanContextEvent` is the abstract root event class for all events emitted from, and pertaining to the semantics of, a `BeanContext`.
BeanContextMembershipEvent	A `BeanContextMembershipEvent` encapsulates the list of children added to, or removed from, the membership of a particular `BeanContext`.
BeanContextServiceAvailableEvent	This event type is used by the BeanContextServicesListener in order to identify the service being registered.
BeanContextServiceRevokedEvent	This event type is used by the `BeanContextServiceRevokedListener` in order to identify the service being revoked.
BeanContextServicesSupport	This helper class provides a utility implementation of the java.beans.beancontext.BeanContextServices interface.
BeanContextServicesSupport.BCSSServiceProvider	subclasses may subclass this nested class to add behaviors for each BeanContextServicesProvider.
BeanContextSupport	This helper class provides a utility implementation of the java.beans.beancontext.BeanContext interface.
BeanContextSupport.BCSIterator	protected final subclass that encapsulates an iterator but implements a noop remove() method.
