* This adapter class provides default implementations for the

* <p>
* Classes that wish to deal with <code>AccessibleControlEvent</code>s can

* Note: Accessibility clients use child identifiers to specify
* whether they want information about a control or one of its children.
* Child identifiers are increasing integers beginning with 0.
* The identifier CHILDID_SELF represents the control itself.
* When returning a child identifier to a client, you may use CHILDID_NONE
* to indicate that no child or control has the required information.
* </p><p>
* Note: This adapter is typically used by implementors of
* a custom control to provide very detailed information about
* the control instance to accessibility clients.
