Reference API as HTML:
Feedback from Internal Review (25 July 2006):
- JavaBean should have protected fire methods instead of public
- Maybe rename JavaBean to AbstractBean
More thoughts
- Need to have VetoablePropertyChange support as well
- Should also optionally support ensuring that property change events are fired on the EDT
Notes/API for Internal Review 10 August 2006
Just a quick email internal review for JavaBean. The API can be found here JavaBean. Notable differences: feedback from last time was applied, and methods to support Vetoable notification was added.
Feedback from Internal Review (10 August 2006):
- the "has" methods should be protected
- Desire to split JavaBean into a JavaBean interface and AbstractJavaBean? implementation
Decisions
- Leave the API generally as it is (add final in a few more places)
- Change the name to AbstractBean?, and move to org.jdesktop.beans (matching java.beans)
- Since an interface can be added at any time, no interface will be added at this time (see thread for details).
- Adding a new constructor that takes a PropertyChangeSupport? and VetoableChangeSupport? so you can swap out the delegate, if you so choose
