Class PropertyMap

java.lang.Object

org.esa.beam.util.PropertyMap

public class PropertyMap
extends Object

The PropertyMap class can be used instead of the standard JDK java.util.Properties class.PropertyMap provides a generally more useful interface by adding a couple type conversion methods for a set of most frequently used data types, such as Boolean, Integer, Double, Color and Font.

Additionally the class provides property change support.
