/**
 * The <code>Action</code> interface provides a useful extension to the
 * <code>ActionListener</code>
 * interface in cases where the same functionality may be accessed by
 * several controls.
 * <p>
 * In addition to the <code>actionPerformed</code> method defined by the
 * <code>ActionListener</code> interface, this interface allows the
 * application to define, in a single place:
 * <ul>
 * <li>One or more text strings that describe the function. These strings
 *     can be used, for example, to display the flyover text for a button
 *     or to set the text in a menu item.
 * <li>One or more icons that depict the function. These icons can be used
 *     for the images in a menu control, or for composite entries in a more
 *     sophisticated user interface.
 * <li>The enabled/disabled state of the functionality. Instead of having
 *     to separately disable the menu item and the toolbar button, the
 *     application can disable the function that implements this interface.
 *     All components which are registered as listeners for the state change
 *     then know to disable event generation for that item and to modify the
 *     display accordingly.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * This interface can be added to an existing class or used to create an
 * adapter (typically, by subclassing <code>AbstractAction</code>).
 * The <code>Action</code> object
 * can then be added to multiple <code>Action</code>-aware containers
 * and connected to <code>Action</code>-capable
 * components. The GUI controls can then be activated or
 * deactivated all at once by invoking the <code>Action</code> object's
 * <code>setEnabled</code> method.
 * <p>
 * Note that <code>Action</code> implementations tend to be more expensive
 * in terms of storage than a typical <code>ActionListener</code>,
 * which does not offer the benefits of centralized control of
 * functionality and broadcast of property changes.  For this reason,
 * you should take care to only use <code>Action</code>s where their benefits
 * are desired, and use simple <code>ActionListener</code>s elsewhere.
 * <br>
 *
 * <h3><a name="buttonActions"></a>Swing Components Supporting <code>Action</code></h3>
 * <p>
 * Many of Swing's components have an <code>Action</code> property.  When
 * an <code>Action</code> is set on a component, the following things
 * happen:
 * <ul>
 * <li>The <code>Action</code> is added as an <code>ActionListener</code> to
 *     the component.
 * <li>The component configures some of its properties to match the
 *      <code>Action</code>.
 * <li>The component installs a <code>PropertyChangeListener</code> on the
 *     <code>Action</code> so that the component can change its properties
 *     to reflect changes in the <code>Action</code>'s properties.
 * </ul>
 * <p>
 * The following table describes the properties used by
 * <code>Swing</code> components that support <code>Actions</code>.
 * In the table, <em>button</em> refers to any
 * <code>AbstractButton</code> subclass, which includes not only
 * <code>JButton</code> but also classes such as
 * <code>JMenuItem</code>. Unless otherwise stated, a
 * <code>null</code> property value in an <code>Action</code> (or a
 * <code>Action</code> that is <code>null</code>) results in the
 * button's corresponding property being set to <code>null</code>.
 *

 *          of the <code>Action</code>, set the property
 *          <code>hideActionText</code> to <code>true</code>.  If
 *          <code>hideActionText</code> is <code>true</code>, setting the
 *          <code>Action</code> changes the text of the button to
 *          <code>null</code> and any changes to <code>NAME</code>
 *          are ignored.  <code>hideActionText</code> is useful for
 *          tool bar buttons that typically only show an <code>Icon</code>.
 *          <code>JToolBar.add(Action)</code> sets the property to
 *          <code>true</code> if the <code>Action</code> has a
 *          non-<code>null</code> value for <code>LARGE_ICON_KEY</code> or

 *          <code>Action</code> is <code>null</code>, the displayed
 *          mnemonic index is not updated.  In any subsequent changes to

 *          is treated as -1.

 *      <td><code>SELECTED_KEY</code>
 *      <td>Components that honor this property only use

 *          you set an {@code Action} that has a {@code null}
 *          value for {@code SELECTED_KEY} on a {@code JToggleButton}, the
 *          {@code JToggleButton} will not update it's selected state in
 *          any way. Similarly, any time the {@code JToggleButton}'s
 *          selected state changes it will only set the value back on
 *          the {@code Action} if the {@code Action} has a {@code non-null}
 *          value for {@code SELECTED_KEY}.
 *          <br>
 *          Components that honor this property keep their selected state
 *          in sync with this property. When the same {@code Action} is used
 *          with multiple components, all the components keep their selected
 *          state in sync with this property. Mutually exclusive
 *          buttons, such as {@code JToggleButton}s in a {@code ButtonGroup},
 *          force only one of the buttons to be selected. As such, do not
 *          use the same {@code Action} that defines a value for the
 *          {@code SELECTED_KEY} property with multiple mutually
 *          exclusive buttons.
 * </table>
 * <p>
 * <code>JPopupMenu</code>, <code>JToolBar</code> and <code>JMenu</code>
 * all provide convenience methods for creating a component and setting the
 * <code>Action</code> on the corresponding component.  Refer to each of
 * these classes for more information.
 * <p>
 * <code>Action</code> uses <code>PropertyChangeListener</code> to
 * inform listeners the <code>Action</code> has changed.  The beans
 * specification indicates that a <code>null</code> property name can
 * be used to indicate multiple values have changed.  By default Swing
 * components that take an <code>Action</code> do not handle such a
 * change.  To indicate that Swing should treat <code>null</code>
 * according to the beans specification set the system property
 * <code>swing.actions.reconfigureOnNull</code> to the <code>String</code>
 * value <code>true</code>.
