public class TypeSelector
extends ComponentViewer

Allows user to select among possible instantiations of a particular type, and edit bean properties of these instantiations. Specifically, this lets the user recursively edit objects as follows. A "property" P of an object x is defined by the existence two methods, a getter method Type x.getP() and a setter method x.setP(Type newValue).. Properties can be edited by the user if Type is either boolean, int, double or String, or if Type is one of the validSubclasses passed to the root constructor.

Double-valued properties with names that contain the string "Fraction" are visualized specially--it's assumed that their values are between 0 and 1.0. String-valued properties with names that contain "Filename" are also visualized specially.

If P is a String-valued property and a method x.getAllowedPValues() exists, it will be used to compute possible values for P. The getAllowedPValues method should return an Object array.
