 *
 * Zaval Light-Weight Visual Components Library (LwVCL) is a pure Java
 * alternative to humble AWT-based and SWING-based GUI interfaces for
 * wide ranges of platforms, including J2SE, PersonalJava and J2ME.
 *
 * Designed as light-weight but, alternatively to Swing, built separately
 * from AWT (not on top of the java.awt library like Swing), the LwVCL is
 * the good alternative to highly performant, memory-efficient, flexible
 * GUI solution for embedded, stand-alone and applet applications.
 *

 * (It comes within this package).
 * The latest product version is always available from the product's homepage:
 * http://www.zaval.org/products/lwvcl/
 * and from the SourceForge:
