DropDownListAccImpl is the accessibility implementation class
for spark.components.supportClasses.DropDownListBase.
<p>Although ComboBox has its own accessibility implementation subclass,
DropDownList simply uses the one for DropDownListBase.
Therefore, the rest of this description refers to
the commonly-used DropDownList component rather than the DropDownListBase
base class.</p>
<p>When a Spark DropDownList is created,
its <code>accessibilityImplementation</code> property
is set to an instance of this class.
The Flash Player then uses this class to allow MSAA clients
such as screen readers to see and manipulate the DropDownList.
See the mx.accessibility.AccImpl and
flash.accessibility.AccessibilityImplementation classes
for background information about accessibility implementation
classes and MSAA.</p>
<p>
<b>Children</b>
</p>
<p>The MSAA children of a DropDownList are its list items.
The number of children is the number of items
in the <code>dataProvider</code>
not just the number of visible renderers.</p>
<p>As described below, the accessibility of the list items
is managed by the DropDownList;
the <code>accessibilityImplementation</code>
and <code>accessibilityProperties</code> of the item renderers
are ignored by the Flash Player.</p>
<p>
<b>Role</b>
</p>
<p>The MSAA Role of a DropDownList is ROLE_SYSTEM_COMBOBOX.</p>
<p>The Role of each list item is ROLE_SYSTEM_LISTITEM.</p>
<p>
<b>Name</b>
</p>
<p>The MSAA Name of a DropDownList is, by default, an empty string.
When wrapped in a FormItem element, the Name is the FormItem's label.
To override this behavior,
set the DropDownList's <code>accessibilityName</code> property.</p>
<p>The Name of each list item is determined by the DropDownList's
<code>itemToLabel()</code> method.</p>
<p>When the Name of the DropDownList or one of its items changes,
a DropDownList dispatches the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_NAMECHANGE
with the proper childID for a list item or 0 for itself.</p>
<p>
<b>Description</b>
</p>
<p>The MSAA Description of a DropDownList is, by default,
an empty string, but you can set the DropDownList's
<code>accessibilityDescription</code> property.</p>
<p>The Description of each list item is the empty string.</p>
<p>
<b>State</b>
</p>
<p>The MSAA State of a DropDownList is a combination of:
<ul>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_UNAVAILABLE (when enabled is false)</li>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_FOCUSABLE (when enabled is true)</li>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_FOCUSED
(when enabled is true and the DropDownList has focus)</li>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_EXPANDED (when it is open)</li>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_COLLAPSED (when it is closed)</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>The State of a list item is a combination of:
<ul>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_FOCUSABLE</li>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_FOCUSED (when it has focus)</li>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_SELECTABLE</li>
<li>STATE_SYSTEM_SELECTED (when it is selected)</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>When the State of the DropDownList or one of its list items changes,
a DropDownList dispatches the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_STATECHANGE
with the proper childID for the list item or 0 for itself.</p>
<p>
<b>Value</b>
</p>
<p>The MSAA Value of a DropDownList is the MSAA Name
of the currently selected list item.</p>
<p>The Value of each list item is the empty string.</p>
<p>When the Value of the DropDownList changes,
it dispatches the MSAA event EVENT_OBJECT_VALUECHANGE.</p>
<p>
<b>Location</b>
</p>
<p>The MSAA Location of a DropDownList or a list item
is its bounding rectangle.</p>
<p>
<b>Default Action</b>
</p>
<p>A DropDownList does not have an MSAA DefaultAction</p>
<p>The DefaultAction of a list item is "Double click".</p>
<p>
<b>Focus</b>
</p>
<p>The DropDownList itself can receive focus, as well as its list items
(either while the DropDownList is collapsed or expanded).
The EVENT_OBJECT_FOCUS is fired when this happens.</p>
<p>
<b>Selection</b>
</p>
<p>The DropDownList allows a single item to be selected,
in which case an EVENT_OBJECT_SELECTION event is fired.</p>

Enables accessibility in the DropDownListBase class.
<p>This method is called by application startup code
that is autogenerated by the MXML compiler.
Afterwards, when instances of DropDownListBase are initialized,
their <code>accessibilityImplementation</code> property
will be set to an instance of this class.</p>
