Package net.sf.jguiraffe.gui.builder.components.tags

A package with tag handler classes for creating GUI components.

The most classes in this package are Jelly tag handler classes that are responsible for the creation of GUI components. The base class FormBaseTag spans a hierarchy that is divided in pure graphical components (derived from SimpleComponentTag) and components that gather user input (derived from InputComponentTag).

These tags do not create the corresponding input components themselves; they rather represent a description of components. A concrete implementation of the ComponentManager interface (defined in the parent package) knows how to create real widgets from such a description.
