public class ObjectOutline
extends OutlineTree
ObjectOutline: displays public fields of objects and elements of Arrays (uncovered using java.lang.reflect and java.lang.Class methods). For collapsed object description, uses method Stringify.printToString() instead of Object.toString() to print up to Stringify.printLength elements of arrays and java.lang.Dictionary's. Generates children for all elements when expanded.
