Class Description

EOTextArea, a subclass of javax.swing.JScrollPane, is used to represent scrolling text regions. An EOTextArea object uses a JTextArea to do its work. The main business of an EOTextArea is to configure the JTextArea's behavior and appearance. An EOTextArea's JTextArea has a vertical scroll bar but not a horizontal scroll bar and it wraps its lines of text. If you want to perform additional configuration on an EOTextArea's JTextArea, you can access the JTextArea with the method textArea.
