The BeanInfo Editor dialog box enables you to edit the elements of a BeanInfo class. To open this dialog box, right-click the Bean Patterns node of the class whose BeanInfo you want to create or update. Then choose BeanInfo Editor from the pop-up menu.

The IDE searches through the class hierarchy of the selected class for elements that match bean-naming conventions. All matching elements are displayed in the left of the BeanInfo Editor dialog box. You can select any element's node to view and edit its properties in the right of the dialog box.

Included in BeanInfo icon appears next to the subnode if the property, event source, or method is designated to be in the BeanInfo class.

Not included in BeanInfo icon appears next to the subnode if the property, event source, or method is designated to be excluded from the BeanInfo class.

BeanInfo elements are organized under the following nodes:
