31 * The PropertyEditorManager can be used to locate a property editor for
32 * any given type name. This property editor must support the
33 * java.beans.PropertyEditor interface for editing a given object.
34 * <P>
35 * The PropertyEditorManager uses three techniques for locating an editor
36 * for a given type. First, it provides a registerEditor method to allow
37 * an editor to be specifically registered for a given type. Second it
38 * tries to locate a suitable class by adding "Editor" to the full
39 * qualified classname of the given type (e.g. "foo.bah.FozEditor").
40 * Finally it takes the simple classname (without the package name) adds
41 * "Editor" to it and looks in a search-path of packages for a matching
42 * class.
43 * <P>
44 * So for an input class foo.bah.Fred, the PropertyEditorManager would
45 * first look in its tables to see if an editor had been registered for
46 * foo.bah.Fred and if so use that. Then it will look for a
47 * foo.bah.FredEditor class. Then it will look for (say)
48 * standardEditorsPackage.FredEditor class.
49 * <p>
50 * Default PropertyEditors will be provided for the Java primitive types
51 * "boolean", "byte", "short", "int", "long", "float", and "double"; and
52 * for the classes java.lang.String. java.awt.Color, and java.awt.Font.
