/**
* A <em>component</em> is an object having a graphical representation
* that can be displayed on the screen and that can interact with the
* user. Examples of components are the buttons, checkboxes, and scrollbars
* of a typical graphical user interface. <p>
* The <code>Component</code> class is the abstract superclass of
* the nonmenu-related Abstract Window Toolkit components. Class
* <code>Component</code> can also be extended directly to create a
* lightweight component. A lightweight component is a component that is
* not associated with a native opaque window.
* <p>
* <h3>Serialization</h3>
* It is important to note that only AWT listeners which conform
* to the <code>Serializable</code> protocol will be saved when
* the object is stored. If an AWT object has listeners that
* aren't marked serializable, they will be dropped at
* <code>writeObject</code> time. Developers will need, as always,
* to consider the implications of making an object serializable.
* One situation to watch out for is this:
* <pre>
* import java.awt.*;
* import java.awt.event.*;
* import java.io.Serializable;
*
* class MyApp implements ActionListener, Serializable
* {
* BigObjectThatShouldNotBeSerializedWithAButton bigOne;
* Button aButton = new Button();
*
* MyApp()
* {
* // Oops, now aButton has a listener with a reference
* // to bigOne!
* aButton.addActionListener(this);
* }
*
* public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
* {
* System.out.println("Hello There");
* }
* }
* </pre>
* In this example, serializing <code>aButton</code> by itself
* will cause <code>MyApp</code> and everything it refers to
* to be serialized as well. The problem is that the listener
* is serializable by coincidence, not by design. To separate
* the decisions about <code>MyApp</code> and the
* <code>ActionListener</code> being serializable one can use a
* nested class, as in the following example:
* <pre>
* import java.awt.*;
* import java.awt.event.*;
* import java.io.Serializable;
*
* class MyApp java.io.Serializable
* {
* BigObjectThatShouldNotBeSerializedWithAButton bigOne;
* Button aButton = new Button();
*
* class MyActionListener implements ActionListener
* {
* public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
* {
* System.out.println("Hello There");
* }
* }
*
* MyApp()
* {
* aButton.addActionListener(new MyActionListener());
* }
* }
* </pre>
* <p>

* by AWT and Swing, including information on how to write the most
* efficient painting code, see
