Interface OnShowingTask

All Known Implementing Classes:
OnStartMessageNotifier.ShowMessagesTask, StartupShutdownSongManager.OpenFilesAtStartupTask
public interface OnShowingTask
A startup task which will be executed by StartupManager in priority ascending order when Netbeans UI is ready.

NOTE: OnShowingTasks are run one by one in a dedicated thread, so they can be (reasonably) long. The @onShowing position attribute also allows ordering but it executes tasks on the EDT so tasks must be short.
