<!-- Question: compat-version

     <question id="compat-version">
            Does your module properly coexists with earlier and future
            versions? Can you correctly read settings? Will future
            versions be able to read settings?
            
            <hint>
            Very helpful for reading settings is to store version number
            there, so future versions can decide whether how to read/convert
            the settings and older versions can ignore the new ones.
            </hint>

Yes it is compatible with older versions.  Legacy settings are supported
for backward compatibility, but ignored.

<api name="PropertyEditorsProperties" category="devel" group="property" type="export"

A variety of hints that can be supplied to property editors to influence their
behavior. The usual usage is to create a feature descriptor and set parameters 
on it:
<pre>
Node.Property prop = new Node.Property (Boolean.TYPE, ...);
prop.setValue ("stringValue", new String[] { "yes", "no" });
</pre>
</api>


<p>The property sheet's display can be customized to a degree by a look and feel
providing netbeans-specific keyed values.  Principally this is useful in that
the XML theme file for metal look and feel can be used to add these values to
any look and feel that subclasses javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel; 
authors of look and feels which wish to provide customizations when their
look and feel is used to provide UI display and behaviors for NetBeans may
also provide custom values for these:</p>
<ul>
<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="javax.swing.UIManager" name="Tree.altbackground">(java.awt.Color)
    UIManager key for a value which, if non null in UIDefaults,
    provides an alternate background color that
    should be used for every other row in the property sheet</api></li>

<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="javax.swing.UIManager" name="PropSheet.selectionBackground">(java.awt.Color)
    UIManager key for a value which, if non null in UIDefaults, sets the
    background color for selected
    properties in the property sheet, overriding the default table selection 
    color if present.  Used to fulfil HIE color requirements on various
    platforms.</api></li>
    
<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="javax.swing.UIManager" name="PropSheet.selectionForeground">(java.awt.Color)
    UIManager key for a value which, if non null in UIDefaults,
    sets foreground color for selected
    properties in the property sheet, overriding the default table selection
    color if present.  Used to fulfil HIE color requirements on various
    platforms.</api></li>

<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="javax.swing.UIManager" name="PropSheet.selectedSetBackground">(java.awt.Color)

    table</api></li>
    
<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="javax.swing.UIManager" name="PropSheet.disabledForeground">(java.awt.Color)
    UIManager key for a value which, if non null in UIDefaults, sets the
    foreground color for disabled 
    properties.  May or may not be used, depending on the look and feel's
    implementation.</api></li>
        
<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="javax.swing.UIManager" name="netbeans.ps.iconmargin">(java.lang.Integer)
    UIManager key for a value which, if non null in UIDefaults, sets the
    integer spacing that should be used to 
    left of the expansion handle for property sets.</api></li>
    
<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="javax.swing.UIManager" name="netbeans.ps.rowheight">(java.lang.Integer)
    UIManager key for a value which, if non null in UIDefaults, sets the

    UIManager key for a value which, if non null in UIDefaults, sets the
    ellipsis icon to use for the custom editor button of the property sheet table</api></li>

</ul>
<p>
Additionally, client properties may be used to affect behavior of PropertyPanel,
a component for displaying individual properties.  They are as follows:
</p>
<ul>
<li><api category="deprecated" type="export" group="property" name="flat">(java.lang.Boolean)
    Client property of PropertyPanel applied using putClientProperty, to instruct a PropertyPanel instance to
    use a borderless UI suitable for use as a table renderer/editor.
    Also affects the behavior of combo boxes, enabling them to open on first click or focus,
    as appropriate for combo boxes displayed in a table.  <i>This property is obsoleted by
    PropertyPanel.PREF_TABLEUI which performs the same function when set as part of the
    PropertyPanel preferences bitmask, but is supported for backward compatibility</i></api></li>
<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="property" name="suppressCustomEditor">(java.lang.Boolean)
    Client property of PropertyPanel applied using putClientProperty, to instruct a PropertyPanel instance to
    suppresses the presence of the custom editor button
    even if the property editor supports a custom editor.</api></li>
<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="property" name="radioButtonMax">(java.lang.Integer n)
    Client property of PropertyPanel applied using putClientProperty, to instruct a PropertyPanel instance to
    use radio buttons
    instead of a combo box for properties whose property editor supports tags but supplies
    less than n tags.</api></li>
<li><api category="friend" type="export" group="property" name="useLabels">(java.lang.Boolean)  
    Client property of PropertyPanel applied using putClientProperty, to instruct a PropertyPanel instance to
    use the property's
    display name as the caption for checkboxes, and as the title of a TitledBorder in the
    case of radiobuttons (this latter usage only applies if radioButtonMax is also used).
    The use of labels is important for checkboxes, as it is the natural way to display
    the meaning of a checkbox in a panel, and the label of a checkbox is what checkboxes
    use to indicate they have keyboard focus.</api></li>
</ul>

Further, there are a few properties what affect the behaviors of inline editors in the
property sheet:
<ul>
<li><api category="devel" type="export" group="property" name="postSetAction">
(javax.swing.Action) Object which, if provided from <code>Property.getValue(&quot;postSetAction&quot;)</code>
will be run if and when the user changes the property value via the property sheet.</api></li>

<li><api category="devel" type="export" group="property" name="initialEditValue">
(java.lang.String) String which, if provided from <code>Property.getValue(&quot;initialEditValue&quot;)</code>
will be used as the initial value when the user initiates editing the property.  This is used
to, for example, suggest values for code completion, without showing the suggested value
when the property sheet is simply painted</api>api></li>
</ul>

        <p>
            <strong>XXX</strong> document the following keys passed sometimes to
            <code>Feature.getValue(String)</code> from <code>org.openide.explorer.propertysheet</code> code:
            <code>stringValues</code>, <code>valueIcon</code>, <code>nodeDescription</code>,

            Does your code uses java.lang.reflect to execute some other code?
            <hint>
            This usually indicates a missing or unsufficient API in the other
            part of the system. If the other side is not aware of your dependency
            this contract can be easily broken.
            </hint>
        </question>
-->
<answer id="exec-reflection">
Reflection is used to invoke JavaHelp if present, when the user invokes help.
Reflection is used to try to attach action listeners to the component supplied
by legacy (deprecated) EnhancedPropertyEditor implementations to supply their
own inline editor component. Reflection is used by the deprecated 
DefaultPropertyModel to attempt to locate getter and setter methods on a random
bean. Reflection is used during decision-making whether "Restore Default Value"
Action should be disabled or enabled. This is due to the backward compatibility
with properties in old modules (or new incorrectly implemented properties). See
<a href="http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=51907">#51907</a> for
detailed description why we do so.

            <hint>Typically they are tasks like connecting over
            network, computing huge amount of data, compilation.
            Such communication should be done asynchronously (for example
            using <code>RequestProcessor</code>), definitively it should 
            not block AWT thread.

            Please include some estimates.
        </question>
-->
<answer id="perf-scale">
The property sheet is designed to perform minimal memory consumption
as it paints, by reusing renderers, etc., and by and large it is
quite efficient.

<br/>  There may be some overhead to selecting a large 
number of objects with some common properties, since the property
sheet will display the intersection of properties common to all
selected nodes.  In practice it is unusual for more than a few
objects to be simultaneously selected.

<!-- Question: resources-file

     <question id="resources-file">
            Does your module use <code>java.io.File</code> directly?
            
            <hint>
            NetBeans provide a logical wrapper over plain files called 
            <code>org.openide.filesystems.FileObject</code> that
            provides uniform access to such resources and is the prefered
            way that should be used. But of course there can be situations when
            this is not suitable.

<!-- Question: resources-layer

     <question id="resources-layer">
            Does your module provide own layer? Does it create some files or
            folders on it? What it is trying to communicate by that and with which 
            component?
            
            <hint>
            NetBeans allows automatic and declarative installation of resources 
            by module layers. Module register files into appropriate places
            and other components use that information to perform their task
            (build menu, toolbar, window layout, list of templates, set of
            options, etc.).

            module layer? 
            
            <hint>
            If you mask a file provided by another module, you probably depend
            on that and do not want the other module to (for example) change
            the file's name. That module shall thus make that file available as an API
            of some stability category.
            </hint>

No.

<!-- Question: resources-read

     <question id="resources-read">
            Does your module read any resources from layers? For what purpose?
            
            <hint>
            As this is some kind of intermodule dependency, it is a kind of API.
