/**
* A component interface to control the attributes of the component to which it
* belongs. More precisely this interface denotes the component interfaces that
* can control component attributes: a component interface whose Java type
* is a Java interface that extends this Java interface is indeed considered as
* an interface to control the attributes of the component to which it belongs.
* Such interfaces must only contain getter and setter methods, such
* as int getX (); void setX (int x), double getSize (); void
* setSize (double x), and so on. These methods should only be used to
* configure "primitive" values such as integers or strings: they must not be
* used to configure bindings (this is the role of the {@link BindingController}
* interface). For example, they can be used to configure the size of a cache
* component, the load factor of a hashtable component, the label or color of a
* button component...
