The ManagedContainer control is an extension to the DataContainer control. It adds to the the basic container the automatic management of container items. The managed container provides java.awt.List style access to and maintenance of the container items. Due to this paradigm, the DataContainer Tree view is not allowed.
The managed container has the same visual appearance and behaviour as its DataContainer parent.
The ManagedContainer contains an automatic window refresh switch. By default, whenever any action is taken which implies the need for a repaint of the container, the ManagedContainer will do so. If, however, there is a need for several updates, this would cause an annoying flicker of the window on the screen. So, the setAutoRefresh() and isAutoRefreshEnabled() methods are provided to allow control over the autorefresh feature.
There is only one class involved with this control aside from those required by the DataContainer parent class.
