package javax.swing;

import javax.swing.event.*;
import java.util.EventObject;
import java.io.Serializable;

A base class for CellEditors, providing default
implementations for the methods in the CellEditor
interface except getCellEditorValue().
Like the other abstract implementations in Swing, also manages a list
of listeners.

Warning:
Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
the same version of Swing.  As of 1.4, support for long term storage
of all JavaBeansTM
has been added to the java.beans package. Please see XMLEncoder.
