Class BioEngine

java.lang.Object
  |
  +--org.concord.biologica.engine.BioEngine

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.io.Serializable

public class BioEngine

extends java.lang.Object

implements java.io.Serializable

This class represents the Java Bean representing all of the BioScope engine. A user of this bean would place it in a beanbox and then use the properties, events and methods of this bean to manipulate the BioScope engine.

In truth, it seems difficult to really do much with the BioScope engine via this Bean, but perhaps it'll have some value in the future that I don't see now.
