Package java.beans.beancontext Description

Provides classes and interfaces relating to bean context. A bean context is a container for beans and defines the execution environment for the beans it contains. There can be several beans in a single bean context, and a bean context can be nested within another bean context. This package also contains events and listener interface for beans being added and removed from a bean context.

Since:
1.2

Perhaps, in the future, something Like Spring will become the defacto Javabean container model?
