Typically components provide api 0N/A * to automate the process of using <code>ToolTip</code>s. 0N/A * For example, any Swing component can use the <code>JComponent</code> 0N/A * <code>setToolTipText</code> method to specify the text 0N/A * for a standard tooltip. A component that wants to create a custom 0N/A * <code>ToolTip</code> 0N/A * display can override <code>JComponent</code>'s <code>createToolTip</code> 0N/A * method and use a subclass of this class. 0N/A * in <em>The Java Tutorial</em> 0N/A * for further documentation. 0N/A * <strong>Warning:</strong> Swing is not thread safe.
