/**
 * The ActionManager manages sets of javax.swing.Actions for an
 * application. There are convenience methods for getting and setting the state
 * of the action.
 * All of these elements have a unique id tag which is used by the ActionManager
 * to reference the action. This id maps to the Action.ACTION_COMMAND_KEY
 * on the Action.
 * 

 * The ActionManager may be used to conveniently register callback methods
 * on BoundActions.
 * 

 * A typical use case of the ActionManager is:
 * 

 *  
 *   ActionManager manager = ActionManager.getInstance();
 *
 *   // load Actions
 *   manager.addAction(action);
 *
 *   // Change the state of the action:
 *   manager.setEnabled("new-action", newState);
 * 

 *
 * The ActionManager also supports Actions that can have a selected state
 * associated with them. These Actions are typically represented by a
 * JCheckBox or similar widget. For such actions the registered method is
 * invoked with an additional parameter indicating the selected state of
 * the widget. For example, for the callback handler:
 *

 * 
 *  public class Handler {
 *      public void stateChanged(boolean newState);
 *   }
 * 

 * The registration method would look similar:
 * 
 *  manager.registerCallback("select-action", new Handler(), "stateChanged");
 * 

 *

 * The stateChanged method would be invoked as the selected state of
 * the widget changed. Additionally if you need to change the selected
 * state of the Action use the ActionManager method setSelected.
 * 

 * The ActionContainerFactory uses the managed Actions in a
 * ActionManager to create user interface components. It uses the shared
 * instance of ActionManager by default. For example, to create a JMenu based on an
 * action-list id:
 * 
 * ActionContainerFactory factory = new ActionContainerFactory();
 * JMenu file = factory.createMenu(list);
 *
