/**
* A lightweight container
* that uses a BoxLayout object as its layout manager.
* Box provides several class methods
* that are useful for containers using BoxLayout --
* even non-Box containers.
*
* <p>
* The <code>Box class can create several kinds
* of invisible components
* that affect layout:
* glue, struts, and rigid areas.
* If all the components your <code>Box contains
* have a fixed size,
* you might want to use a glue component
* (returned by <code>createGlue)
* to control the components' positions.
* If you need a fixed amount of space between two components,
* try using a strut
* (<code>createHorizontalStrut or createVerticalStrut).
* If you need an invisible component
* that always takes up the same amount of space,
* get it by invoking <code>createRigidArea.
* <p>
* If you are implementing a <code>BoxLayout you
* can find further information and examples in
* <a
href="http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/uiswing/layout/box.html">How to Use BoxLayout</a>,
* a section in <em>The Java Tutorial.
* <p>
* <strong>Warning:
* Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
* future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
* appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
* the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage
* of all JavaBeans™
* has been added to the <code>java.beans package.
* Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.

* as being a gooey substance
* that expands as much as necessary
* to fill the space between its neighboring components.
*
* <p>
*
* For example, suppose you have
* a horizontal box that contains two fixed-size components.
* If the box gets extra space,
* the fixed-size components won't become larger,
* so where does the extra space go?
* Without glue,
* the extra space goes to the right of the second component.
* If you put glue between the fixed-size components,
* then the extra space goes there.
* If you put glue before the first fixed-size component,
* the extra space goes there,
* and the fixed-size components are shoved against the right
* edge of the box.
* If you put glue before the first fixed-size component
* and after the second fixed-size component,
* the fixed-size components are centered in the box.
*
* <p>
*
* To use glue,
* call <code>Box.createGlue
* and add the returned component to a container.
* The glue component has no minimum or preferred size,
* so it takes no space unless excess space is available.
