/**
 * PropertyChangeEvents are fired in the PropertyChange and VetoableChange
 * event classes.  They represent the old and new values as well as the
 * source Bean. If the old or new value is a primitive type, it must be
 * wrapped in the appropriate wrapper type (java.lang.Integer for int, etc.,
 * etc.).
 *
 * <p>If the old or new values are unknown (although why that would be I do
 * not know), they may be null. Also, if the set of properties itself has
 * changed, the name should be null, and the old and new values may also be
 * null. Right now Sun put in a propagationId, reserved for future use. Read
 * the comments on the constructor and on setPropagationId for more
 * information.
