public abstract class AbstractSwingHandler<A extends java.lang.annotation.Annotation>
extends java.lang.Object
implements SwingHandler
This class provides a generic implementation of a SwingHandler class. The basic execution flow is the following:
  1. Check if the annotation is present (Exception on failure)
  2. Retrieve the GenericDesc through getDesc(FieldReference, Annotation)
  3. Add the description to the ComponentDesc stored in the FieldReference
  4. Read the contents of the given annotation with GenericDesc.read(Annotation)
  5. Call GenericDesc.applyTo(Component) with the linked component from the FieldReference
The last three points should always be executed to prevent any unknown exceptions would be thrown.

1.0
