Interface EditorModel

public interface EditorModel

Implemented by objects which are capable of creating GUI editors for themselves.

If a object is capable of providing a GUI editor of itself, it should implement this interface. GUI builders can then dynamically create to necessary editors at run time for these types of objects.

I really need to provide an example of this. However one might picture a GUI interface that has a tree representation of objects on the left side, and when the user selects an object, the appropriate editor for the object is automatically created.
