BeanBox: Sun’s tool for testing out a JavaBean to see if it conforms with the conventions. When you go to JavaSoft to download it the instructions say to click a button labeled Download Software, but it is actually labelled continue. See JavaBean, Jar file. When testing a bean, think carefully about the CLASSPATH you use. You don’t want to include anything that users of the bean might not have on their CLASSPATH. The bean should be self-contained, bringing all the classes its needs with it in the surrounding jar file. When the BeanBox complains about a component, it may be that the real problem lies in something that component uses.
