public class Category
extends CategoryModel
implements ICategory

Convenience implementation of feature category definition.

This class may be instantiated or subclassed by clients.

Note: This class/interface is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is being made available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.

Since:
2.0
