Class AccessibleRole determines the role of a component.  The role of a
component describes its generic function. (E.G.,
"push button," "table," or "list.")

The toDisplayString method allows you to obtain the localized string
for a locale independent key from a predefined ResourceBundle for the
keys defined in this class.

The constants in this class present a strongly typed enumeration
of common object roles.  A public constructor for this class has been
purposely omitted and applications should use one of the constants
from this class.  If the constants in this class are not sufficient
to describe the role of an object, a subclass should be generated
from this class and it should provide constants in a similar manner.
