Package de.esprit.appsuite.database.dbgui.field Description

Contains a set of input fields for user input of various data types. All these fields implement the Field interface and thus can be handled in a common way. For instance they can easily be placed in a FieldPanel for constructing an input form.
Note that for each different type of GUI component used there is a top level abstract class that implements the Field interface. This is done for ease of mainenance - when the field interface changes you might only have to adapt these top level abstract classes.
