-------------------------------------

Hi Dart....

Regarding #2... for now we'll need to create a static Map of some sort inside the editor code.  In future, I hope to add this info as annotations on the DataDecoder impls.

As I was thinking about it, the Map would be keyed by the DataDecoder type, with the values being the names of the decodeParams supported by it (including default vals).

So perhaps something like....
class DecodeParamValueConfig {
    String name;
    String defaultVal;
}

static Map<Class<DataDecoder>, DecodeParamValueConfig[]> decodeParamsConfig = new HashMap<Class<DataDecoder>, DecodeParamValueConfig[]>();

static {
    decodeParamsConfig.put(DateDecoder.class, new DecodeParamValueConfig[] {new DecodeParamValueConfig(...), new DecodeParamValueConfig(...)})
    decodeParamsConfig.put(CalendarDecoder.class, ....
}

> The editor supports decode parameter config through a properties sheet activated by selecting the bean property.  However, at the moment, the user needs to know the names of the decode params relevant to the decoder being used to decode the data for that specific binding.
> Would make a big difference to the user (and shouldn't be too difficult to add) if the editor automatically provided the decode params relevant to the binding.  Also... make the decode params the appear by default, when you select the properties of a bean property.
