## Class SwingConfigurationManager

- java.lang.Object
- - gr.zeus.ui.typesafe.SwingConfigurationManager

-     public final class SwingConfigurationManager
      extends java.lang.Object

  This class is the central point of execution for all the classes inside `gr.zeus.ui.typesafe` package. Although each class can be used as standalone, the SwingConfigurationManager provides an easy way to configure multiple swing components within many forms via a property file. You can have as many instances of this class as you need, just keep in mind that each instance is attached to a single property file. The property file can also exist inside a ResourceBundle. Aside the constructors the main methods are: applyFocus(), initializes the focus for a container and configComponent(), that configures all the swing components. Property file format example:
  customfocustraversalpolicy=true/false
  (tagname).(param)=(value)

  Note: Due to the internal design of the JFormattedTextField, the TypeSafeTextDocumentFilter is not applied (see Sun's javadocs). Only the Verifier's functionality is applied.
