/**
 * This class is used to create a multiple-exclusion scope for
 * a set of buttons. Creating a set of buttons with the
 * same <code>ButtonGroup</code> object means that
 * turning "on" one of those buttons 
 * turns off all other buttons in the group.
 * <p>
 * A <code>ButtonGroup</code> can be used with
 * any set of objects that inherit from <code>AbstractButton</code>.
 * Typically a button group contains instances of 
 * <code>JRadioButton</code>,
 * <code>JRadioButtonMenuItem</code>,
 * or <code>JToggleButton</code>.
 * It wouldn't make sense to put an instance of 
 * <code>JButton</code> or <code>JMenuItem</code>
 * in a button group
 * because <code>JButton</code> and <code>JMenuItem</code>
 * don't implement the selected state.
 * <p>
 * Initially, all buttons in the group are unselected. Once any button is
 * selected, one button is always selected in the group. There is no way
 * to turn a button programmatically to "off", in order to clear the button
 * group. To give the appearance of "none selected", add an invisible radio
 * button to the group and then programmatically select that button to 
 * turn off all the displayed radio buttons. For example, a normal button
 * with the label "none" could be wired to select the invisible radio button.
 * <p>
 * For examples and further information on using button groups see
 * <a href="http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/uiswing/components/button.html#radiobutton">How to Use Radio Buttons</a>,
 * a section in <em>The Java Tutorial</em>.
 * <p>
 * <strong>Warning:</strong>
 * Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with
 * future Swing releases. The current serialization support is
 * appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running
 * the same version of Swing.  As of 1.4, support for long term storage
 * of all JavaBeans<sup><font size="-2">TM</font></sup>
 * has been added to the <code>java.beans</code> package.
 * Please see {@link java.beans.XMLEncoder}.
