| * Validates and updates the properties and layout of this object |

| * if necessary. |
| * |
| * <p>When properties are changed, the new values do not usually have |
| * an immediate effect on the component. |
| * Usually, all of the application code that needs to be run |
| * at that time is executed. Then the LayoutManager starts |
| * calling the <code>validateProperties()</code>, |
| * <code>validateSize()</code>, and <code>validateDisplayList()</code> |
| * methods on components, based on their need to be validated and their |
| * depth in the hierarchy of display list objects.</p> |
| * |
| * <p>For example, setting the <code>width</code> property is delayed, because |
| * it may require recalculating the widths of the object's children |
| * or its parent. |
| * Delaying the processing also prevents it from being repeated |
| * multiple times if the application code sets the <code>width</code> property |
| * more than once. |
| * This method lets you manually override this behavior.</p> |
