Summary

You've learned how to select Beans from the ToolBox and place them in the BeanBox. Once in the BeanBox, you can use the Bean's Property sheet and property editors to change its appearance. You can also use the BeanBox menu options to connect events from one Bean to another, to initiate and control Bean actions.

Keep in mind that the BeanBox is not an application builder tool. Its main purpose is to test Beans and verify that introspection and event hookup works properly. You would not really use the BeanBox to build and run an application.

Instead, think of the BeanBox as a reference builder tool. If your bean runs properly in the BeanBox, and it reports the proper events that you want your bean to fire as well as the proper event handlers for events you want it to respond to, you can be confident that your bean will work properly in other Beans-enabled builder tools.
