31  * This class allows to specify the children of an entity.<br>
32  * In order to define a context, you can have a look to the corresponding
33  * <a HREF="../../../../../../resources/browser_dtd.html#wrapper">DTD element</a> or to
34  * an <a HREF="package-summary.html#xml">XML example.</a>
35  * </p>
36  *
37  * <p>
38  * Example:
39  * <pre>
40  * public Entry[]
41  * getEntries()
42  * {
43  * Entry[] entries = new Entry[properties_.size()];
44  * Enumeration keys = properties_.keys();
45  * Enumeration elements = properties_.elements();
46  * for (int i = 0; i &lt; entries.length; i++) {
47  * entries[i] = new DefaultEntry(elements.nextElement(),new DefaultName((String) keys.nextElement()),this);
48  * }
49  * return entries;
50  * }
51  * </pre>
52  * This context provides the list of properties registered in a <code>java.util.Properties<code> object.
