I'm curious.  I am in need of a dialog with which the user can restore
the original state of the components.  For example, say I have a
jcheckbox, a jcombobox and a jlist that are in a certain state upon
creation of the dialog.  I want to save their state upon creation.
The user can click away and change the component states, but when they
click the Restore Defaults button, I want to restore the state of
those components to when the dialog was first created.

I know I can do it in a brute-force way but, I'm wondering if there
are any ideas out there to handle this generically (maybe using
reflection) where the method can apply to any number of components in
any dialog.

Ideas?


Thanks,

Tim
