Java beans are reusable software components that can be visually manipulated in builder tools. They follow certain rules like implementing Serializable and having a no-argument constructor. Beans have properties that determine their appearance and behavior which can be accessed programmatically or visually in property sheets. Common bean components include buttons, text fields, and lists. Builder tools use reflection to read bean properties and allow visual editing of beans.

3. “It’s a Component Architecture of Java which allow
you to define the Component ”
Java Bean is nothing but the Java Class.
Example:-
Swing are all the Java Bean component
Component (Button,TextField,Label)
4. Java Bean classes follow certain Rule or Condition.
All java Bean classes must Implement the
Serializable Interface.
Component may be used by some apllication
builder.
A bean has a no argument constructor.

5. Java Bean API makes it possible to write the
component s/w in a java programming language.
This package will be used depending upon the need
of the Application (based on funcion of bean classes).
Now when its only the use of the property or the
Getter & Setter Method at that time you might not
even make a use of this package.
6. The component is nothing but the group of classes.
Example:- Jbutton(it’s a component not a class).
In order to a swing Button there are whole lot of
class are involved to build this Jbutton.
Component is a single Functionality provided by
many different classes
Component is a group of classses that interact with
eachother to fulfill the single purpose.
7. Application developer uses different beans in his
application using the Java Beans.
You can build two types of Components.

Represent a single value.Represent a single value.
The accessor methods should follow standard namingThe accessor methods should follow standard naming
conventions.conventions.
public <PropertyType> get<PropertyName>();
public void set<PropertyName>(<PropertyType> value);
Example:
public String getHostName();
public void setHostName( String hostName );
12. 22 BooleanPropertiesBooleanProperties:-:-
They are simple propertiesThey are simple properties
The getter methods follow an optional design patternThe getter methods follow an optional design pattern
public boolean is<PropertyName>();
Example:
public boolean isConnected();
13. 33 Indexed PropertiesProperties:-:-
Represent an array of valuesRepresent an array of values
public <PropertyElement> get<PropertyName>(int index);
public void set<PropertyName>(int index,<PropertyElement> value);
public <PropertyElement>[] get<PropertyName>();
public void set<PropertyName>(<PropertyElement>[] values);
Example:
public Color setPalette(int index);
public void setPalette(int index,Color value);
public Color[] getPalette();
public void setPalette(Color[] values);
14. Bound:-
a bound property notifies other objects when its value
changes
generates a PropertyChange event with property name,
old value and new value
Constrained:-
an object with constrained properties allows other
objects to veto a constrained property value change
Constrained property listeners can veto a change by
throwing a PropertyVetoException
15. Two types of objects are involved:Two types of objects are involved:
““Source” objects.Source” objects.
““Listener” objects.Listener” objects.

17. Persistance
Your Bean should be able to store its state, which
means there should be the serializable interface.
Upon the Bean a builder tool should be able to make a
reflaction and be able to create an object of your
component.
[Ex. Drag and drop a component in to a design area and
the builder tool should be able to create the instance of
that component and be able to display the property of
that bean via reflaction.]
18. Customization
Using the Bean customization, you can specify what
methods or the properties that you want to expose at
rhe run time environment, so such property will be
displayed in the propertysheet.
Introspection
Is nothing but a reflection using which the builder tool
can display all the events and the properties of the
component.
19. Reflection API
It helps us to find out what are the contents of the class,
so you can findout what are the methods, constructors
and variables in the class and you can find out the
details in return.
Due to the process of the reflection builder tool can be
able to display what are the property of the Component
in the property sheet and also provides the details
regarding the Events and methods.
