Java Beans are software components written in the Java programming language.
Naming conventions
The source code of a Java Bean is subject to certain naming conventions. These naming conventions make it easier for beans to be reused, replaced and connected.
The naming conventions are:
- every java bean class should implement java.io.Serializable interface;
- it should have the 0 argument constructor;
- its properties should be accessed using get,set methods;
- it should contain the required event handling methods.
