Bug 5485

Duplicated with #5719

Priority is changed to P4 (normal).

comment from the user laurent.sauvage@forlog.fr


In Bean Customizer:
The Serialize As command fails to serialize a bean.
This because there's a PropertyChangeListener (probably Bean Customizer itself)
in the PropertyChangeSupport listener list that isn't serializable.
Imagine a bean extending standard JButton.
Because of PropertyChangeSupport changeSupport is not transient in Component.
All PropertyChangeListener must be serialized.

Sample failing code:
import java.beans.*;
import java.io.*;
import javax.swing.JButton;

public class ProgressionButton extends JButton implements java.io.Serializable {


    /** Creates new ProgressionButton */
    public ProgressionButton() {
    }

    public void addPropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)
    {
        super.addPropertyChangeSupport(listener);
    }
    public void removePropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)
    {
       super.removePropertyChangeSupport(listener);
    }
}
********************
this code fails to be serialized using BeanCustomizer.
simply put in comments calls to super methods so the ProgressionButton can be
serialized.

I checked this bug in the latest build and it looks like fixed, however it is
still appears in FFJ 2.0
