Provides the support classes that define the default areas and actions for components that acquire their Actions via the ActionProviderFramework (APF).

Overview

Generally, these classes are responsible for the following:

1. Defining the general areaTypes in which Actions may be registered. For example, a table support class may define a COLUMN_HEADER_AREA and a DATA_CELL_AREA.

2. Defining the default actionTypes and map each actionType to an instance of an Action that it creates and makes available to an ActionProvider during queries.

3. Providing dynamic attribute values ( those that may vary between queries ) for Actions.

Typically, a single support class manages Actions for a specific viewer-type/model-type combination.
