/** This class is a collection of UI convenience methods which provide a
* graphical user dialog for browsing print services looked up through the Java
* Print Service API.
* <p>
* The dialogs follow a standard pattern of acting as a continue/cancel option
*for a user as well as allowing the user to select the print service to use
*and specify choices such as paper size and number of copies.
* <p>
* <p>
* The dialogs are designed to work with pluggable print services though the
* public APIs of those print services.
* <p>
* If a print service provides any vendor extensions these may be made
* accessible to the user through a vendor supplied tab panel Component.
* Such a vendor extension is encouraged to use Swing! and to support its
* accessibility APIs.
* The vendor extensions should return the settings as part of the
* AttributeSet.
* Applications which want to preserve the user settings should use those
* settings to specify the print job.
* Note that this class is not referenced by any other part of the Java
* Print Service and may not be included in profiles which cannot depend
* on the presence of the AWT packages.

public class ServiceUI {
/**
* Presents a dialog to the user for selecting a print service (printer).
* It is displayed at the location specified by the application and
* is modal.
* If the specification is invalid or would make the dialog not visible it
* will be displayed at a location determined by the implementation.
* The dialog blocks its calling thread and is application modal.
* <p>
* The dialog may include a tab panel with custom UI lazily obtained from
* the PrintService's ServiceUIFactory when the PrintService is browsed.
* The dialog will attempt to locate a MAIN_UIROLE first as a JComponent,
* then as a Panel. If there is no ServiceUIFactory or no matching role
* the custom tab will be empty or not visible.
* <p>
* The dialog returns the print service selected by the user if the user
* OK's the dialog and null if the user cancels the dialog.
* <p>
* An application must pass in an array of print services to browse.
* The array must be non-null and non-empty.
* Typically an application will pass in only PrintServices capable
* of printing a particular document flavor.
* <p>
* An application may pass in a PrintService to be initially displayed.
* A non-null parameter must be included in the array of browsable
* services.
* If this parameter is null a service is chosen by the implementation.
* <p>
* An application may optionally pass in the flavor to be printed.
* If this is non-null choices presented to the user can be better
* validated against those supported by the services.
* An application must pass in a PrintRequestAttributeSet for returning
* user choices.
* On calling the PrintRequestAttributeSet may be empty, or may contain
* application-specified values.
* <p>
* These are used to set the initial settings for the initially
* displayed print service. Values which are not supported by the print
* service are ignored. As the user browses print services, attributes
* and values are copied to the new display. If a user browses a
* print service which does not support a particular attribute-value, the
* default for that service is used as the new value to be copied.
* <p>
* If the user cancels the dialog, the returned attributes will not reflect
* any changes made by the user.
