/**
 * The Introspector class provides a standard way for tools to learn about
 * the properties, events, and methods supported by a target Java Bean.
 * <p>
 * For each of those three kinds of information, the Introspector will
 * separately analyze the bean's class and superclasses looking for
 * either explicit or implicit information and use that information to
 * build a BeanInfo object that comprehensively describes the target bean.
 * <p>
 * For each class "Foo", explicit information may be available if there exists
 * a corresponding "FooBeanInfo" class that provides a non-null value when
 * queried for the information.   We first look for the BeanInfo class by
 * taking the full package-qualified name of the target bean class and
 * appending "BeanInfo" to form a new class name.  If this fails, then
 * we take the final classname component of this name, and look for that
 * class in each of the packages specified in the BeanInfo package search
 * path.
 * <p>
 * Thus for a class such as "sun.xyz.OurButton" we would first look for a
 * BeanInfo class called "sun.xyz.OurButtonBeanInfo" and if that failed we'd
 * look in each package in the BeanInfo search path for an OurButtonBeanInfo
 * class.  With the default search path, this would mean looking for
 * "sun.beans.infos.OurButtonBeanInfo".
 * <p>
 * If a class provides explicit BeanInfo about itself then we add that to
 * the BeanInfo information we obtained from analyzing any derived classes,
 * but we regard the explicit information as being definitive for the current
 * class and its base classes, and do not proceed any further up the superclass
 * chain.
 * <p>
 * If we don't find explicit BeanInfo on a class, we use low-level
 * reflection to study the methods of the class and apply standard design
 * patterns to identify property accessors, event sources, or public
 * methods.  We then proceed to analyze the class's superclass and add
 * in the information from it (and possibly on up the superclass chain).
 *
 * <p>
 * Because the Introspector caches BeanInfo classes for better performance,
 * take care if you use it in an application that uses
 * multiple class loaders.
 * In general, when you destroy a <code>ClassLoader</code>
 * that has been used to introspect classes,
 * you should use the
 * {@link #flushCaches <code>Introspector.flushCaches</code>}
 * or
 * {@link #flushFromCaches <code>Introspector.flushFromCaches</code>} method
 * to flush all of the introspected classes out of the cache.
 *
 * <P>
 * For more information about introspection and design patterns, please
 * consult the
 *  <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/javabeans/docs/index.html">JavaBeans specification</a>.
