This is a Jolt-aware extension of java.awt.TextField and Swing JTextfield. JoltTextField contains parts of the input for a service. A JoltServiceBean can listen to events raised by a JoltTextField. JoltTextField sends JoltInputEvents to its listeners (typically JoltServiceBeans) when its contents changes.

JoltTextField displays output from a service. In this case, JoltTextField listens to JoltOutputEvents from JoltServiceBeans and updates its contents according to the occurrence of the field to which it is linked.
