public class DateButton

extends JButton

Custom button for entering dates. The DateButton class
is just a standard button that defines an additional bound
property: "date". The button displays the date property as its
label. When clicked, it does not generate an
ActionEvent, but displays a DateChooser dialog
instead, that allows you to change the date. When the date is
changed, a PropertyChangeEvent is generated, according
the contract for bound properties.
