/**
 * 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);
