/**
* JXTaskPaneContainer provides an elegant view
* to display a list of tasks ordered by groups ({@link org.jdesktop.swingx.JXTaskPane}s).
*
*
* Although {@link org.jdesktop.swingx.JXTaskPane} can be added to any other
* container, the JXTaskPaneContainer will provide better
* fidelity when it comes to matching the look and feel of the host operating
* system than any other panel. As example, when using on a Windows platform,
* the JXTaskPaneContainer will be painted with a light gradient
* background. Also JXTaskPaneContainer takes care of using the
* right {@link java.awt.LayoutManager} (as required by
* {@link org.jdesktop.swingx.JXCollapsiblePane}) so that
* {@link org.jdesktop.swingx.JXTaskPane} behaves correctly when collapsing and
* expanding its content.
*
*
* JXTaskPaneContainer can be added to a JScrollPane.
*
*
* Example:
*
*
* JXFrame frame = new JXFrame();
*
* // a container to put all JXTaskPane together
* JXTaskPaneContainer taskPaneContainer = new JXTaskPaneContainer();
*
* // add JXTaskPanes to the container
* JXTaskPane actionPane = createActionPane();
* JXTaskPane miscActionPane = createMiscActionPane();
* JXTaskPane detailsPane = createDetailsPane();
* taskPaneContainer.add(actionPane);
* taskPaneContainer.add(miscActionPane);
* taskPaneContainer.add(detailsPane);
*
* // put the action list on the left in a JScrollPane
* // as we have several taskPane and we want to make sure they
* // all get visible.
* frame.add(new JScrollPane(taskPaneContainer), BorderLayout.EAST);
*
* // and a file browser in the middle
* frame.add(fileBrowser, BorderLayout.CENTER);
*
* frame.pack().
* frame.setVisible(true);
