37  * A container is a component that can contain components and other containers.
  38  * A container can also have a layout manager that controls the visual placement
  39  * of components in the container. The AWT package contains several layout
  40  * manager classes and an interface for building your own layout manager. See
  41  * Container and LayoutManager for more information.
  42  * <p>
  43  * Each {@code Component} object is limited in its maximum size and its location
  44  * because the values are stored as an integer. Also, a platform may further
  45  * restrict maximum size and location coordinates. The exact maximum values are
  46  * dependent on the platform. There is no way to change these maximum values,
  47  * either in Java code or in native code. These limitations also impose
  48  * restrictions on component layout. If the bounds of a Component object exceed
  49  * a platform limit, there is no way to properly arrange them within a Container
  50  * object. The object's bounds are defined by any object's coordinate in
  51  * combination with its size on a respective axis.
