Interface IPropertyStore

All Superinterfaces:

IPropertyChangeNotifier

public interface IPropertyStore
extends IPropertyChangeNotifier

An IPropertyStore allows to store and retrieve values of named properties, notifying registered PropertyChangeListeners about all (real) changes of property values, i.e. when a value gets set, unset, or changed to a different value.

Any client implementing this interface may internally use an AdaptableSupport as a delegate to easily realize the required functionality.
