Package sos.wizard Description

Provides classes and interfaces for wizard dialogs. A wizard dialog is a sequence of pages that step the user through a difficult or crucial task.

Developers wishing to add a wizard to their applications need to do three things:

1. Create a wizard model. DefaultWizardModel makes it easier to create both static and dynamic page sequences.
   
   
2. Create the JWizard component.
   
   
3. Show the wizard with a call to JWizard.showDialog.

The library allows extensive customization of the wizard component. For more information, see the Wizards Tutorial.
