BeanInfo

  • The BeanInfo interface provides information about a Java Bean, such as its properties, methods, and events.

  • It includes methods for retrieving bean descriptors, property descriptors, method descriptors, and event set descriptors.

  • BeanInfo defines constants for representing different types of icons associated with the bean.

  • Developers can extend the SimpleBeanInfo class for easier implementation of the BeanInfo interface.

  • The getAdditionalBeanInfo method allows for retrieving additional bean information from other sources.
