Description Joe Winchester CLA 2003-12-01 07:37:41 EST 
Scenario:  Drop Swing model or action, AWT Checkbox group, etc...
Visit property sheet of component and on property model/action/checkboxGroup 
drop down list shows the possible targets.  Select one and code gets generated 
to make association
jLTable.setModel(getTableModel1());
Having enabled this with a property editor that was able to do this kind of 
association the existing palette of JavaBeans would be visited and properties 
added to use this where applicable (the above 3 are just examples)
Comment 1 Ernest Pasour CLA 2006-06-02 09:42:46 EDT 
I am interested in allowing models "hooked up" to views.  This might be accomplished with drag/drop.  Or it might be a context menu item on a viewer that allows me to pick which models can be attached.  I would like to have this be an extension point so that I can control which models can be hooked to a view and what code gets generated.  

This defect sounds like what I want, but I'm not certain.  

Can I currently add my own context menu item to an existing viewer?
