Parameters:

methodName - the name of a Java method. The method must be public, take a single Object parameter and return Boolean.

Method Detail

vetoableChange

public void vetoableChange(PropertyChangeEvent evObj)

Invokes validateValue() on a value contained in a constrained property.

Specified by:
