/**
 * <code>JSeparator</code> provides a general purpose component for
 * implementing divider lines - most commonly used as a divider
 * between menu items that breaks them up into logical groupings.
 * Instead of using <code>JSeparator</code> directly,
 * you can use the <code>JMenu</code> or <code>JPopupMenu</code>
 * <code>addSeparator</code> method to create and add a separator.
 * <code>JSeparator</code>s may also be used elsewhere in a GUI
 * wherever a visual divider is useful.
 *
 * <p>
 *
 * For more information and examples see
 * <a
 href="http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/menu.html">How to Use Menus</a>,
 * a section in <em>The Java Tutorial.</em>
 * <p>
 * <strong>Warning:</strong> Swing is not thread safe. For more
 * information see <a
 * href="package-summary.html#threading">Swing's Threading
 * Policy</a>.
 * <p>
 * <strong>Warning:</strong>
 * 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<sup><font size="-2">TM</font></sup>
 * has been added to the <code>java.beans</code> package.
 * Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.
