Class BorderUIResource.EtchedBorderUIResource

public static class BorderUIResource.EtchedBorderUIResource extends EtchedBorder implements UIResource, Serializable

An {@link javax.swing.border.EtchedBorder} that also implements the {@link UIResource} marker interface. This is useful for implementing pluggable look-and-feels: When switching the current LookAndFeel, only those borders are replaced that are marked as {@link UIResource}. For this reason, a look-and-feel should always install borders that implement UIResource, such as the borders provided by this class.
