043:         * The ComponentOrientation class encapsulates the language-sensitive
044:         * orientation that is to be used to order the elements of a component
045:         * or of text. It is used to reflect the differences in this ordering
046:         * between Western alphabets, Middle Eastern (such as Hebrew), and Far
047:         * Eastern (such as Japanese).
048:         * <p>
049:         * Fundamentally, this governs items (such as characters) which are laid out
050:         * in lines, with the lines then laid out in a block. This also applies
051:         * to items in a widget: for example, in a check box where the box is
052:         * positioned relative to the text.
053:         * <p>
054:         * There are four different orientations used in modern languages
055:         * as in the following table.<br>
056:         * <pre>
057:         * LT          RT          TL          TR   
058:         * A B C       C B A       A D G       G D A
059:         * D E F       F E D       B E H       H E B
060:         * G H I       I H G       C F I       I F C
061:         * </pre><br>
062:         * (In the header, the two-letter abbreviation represents the item direction
063:         * in the first letter, and the line direction in the second. For example,
064:         * LT means "items left-to-right, lines top-to-bottom",
065:         * TL means "items top-to-bottom, lines left-to-right", and so on.)
066:         * <p>
067:         * The orientations are:
068:         * <ul>
069:         * <li>LT - Western Europe (optional for Japanese, Chinese, Korean)
070:         * <li>RT - Middle East (Arabic, Hebrew)
071:         * <li>TR - Japanese, Chinese, Korean
072:         * <li>TL - Mongolian
073:         * </ul>
074:         * Components whose view and controller code depends on orientation
075:         * should use the <code>isLeftToRight()</code> and
076:         * <code>isHorizontal()</code> methods to
077:         * determine their behavior. They should not include switch-like
078:         * code that keys off of the constants, such as:
079:         * <pre>
080:         * if (orientation == LEFT_TO_RIGHT) {
081:         *   ...
082:         * } else if (orientation == RIGHT_TO_LEFT) {
083:         *   ...
084:         * } else {
085:         *   // Oops
086:         * }
087:         * </pre>
088:         * This is unsafe, since more constants may be added in the future and
089:         * since it is not guaranteed that orientation objects will be unique.
