/**
* Interface describing an object capable of rendering a border
* around the edges of a swing component.
* <p>
* In the Swing component set, borders supercede Insets as the
* mechanism for creating a (decorated or plain) area around the
* edge of a component.
* <p>
* Usage Notes:
* <ul>
* <li>Use EmptyBorder to create a plain border (this mechanism
* replaces its predecessor, <code>setInsets</code>).
* <li>Use CompoundBorder to nest multiple border objects, creating
* a single, combined border.
* <li>Border instances are designed to be shared. Rather than creating
* a new border object using one of border classes, use the
* BorderFactory methods, which produces a shared instance of the
* common border types.
* <li>Additional border styles include BevelBorder, SoftBevelBorder,
* EtchedBorder, LineBorder, TitledBorder, and MatBorder.
* <li>To create a new border class, subclass AbstractBorder.
* </ul>
