Properties of a random component about swinglibrary

[jussimalinen]

How should this keyword work under the hood? Call the method getBackground? http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/awt/Component.html#getBackground()

Should this somehow use reflection to allow accessing functions starting with "get"?

Or do you want this to call the getClientProperty keyword? (But you would not get the background color in general case from there, would you?)

In the meantime I'm using a custom keyword (the component under test actually is inherited from JTextfield and has further properties that I need to evaluate).
I /do/ use getBackground(). I'm not sure if that's the best way to do it because iirc some swing components have some weird set/getBackground bevaviour, but in my case, everything works as expected.

I think this does make sense. It could be something like:

Get property locale # calls getLocale()
Get property rectangle # calls getRectangle()

The toString method in the returned objects for the swing functions I took a look at seems sane enough to make this work. Cant promise when we get around making this, but in the meanwhile pull requests are appreciated :)

I think this has now been implemented in #65
