| interface but allows at the same time that that interface is implemented |
| by another class.</p> |
| |
| <p>The distinction between the interfaces <type>XAccessible</type> and |
| <type>XAccessibleContext</type> makes it possible to split up the |
| implementation of the |
| class that is made accessible and the actual accessibility code into two |
| (mostly) independant parts. The only necessary dependance is the |
| <member scope="XAccessible">getAccessibleContext()</member> function |
| that returns the accessible context. This one-way link has to be |
| persistant in some sense: As long as there is at least one reference to |
| a specific <type>XAccessibleContext</type> object the |
| <type>XAccessible</type> object has to return the same context for every |
| call to <member scope="XAccessible">getAccessibleContext()</member>. |
| This is necessary to allow the use of object identity for comparing |
| accessibility contexts for being equal.</p> |
