Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods Default Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`void`	`addSettingsChangedListener(java.lang.Runnable runnable)` Add listeners to be triggered when fields state change
`default java.util.List<<any>>`	`getAliases()` Provide pair(s) of legacy name and current name for this credentials element if there are any.
`java.awt.Container`	`getCompoundComponent()` Returns the component itself.
`java.util.Map<java.lang.String,CredentialsSerializationField>`	`getValues()` gets values for `CredentialsComponent` elements.
`void`	`setValues(java.util.Map<java.lang.String,CredentialsSerializationField> values)` sets values for `CredentialsComponent` elements while restoring saved values.

- Method Detail
  - getCompoundComponent
```
java.awt.Container getCompoundComponent()
```
    Returns the component itself. Compound here means that a typical CredentialsComponent will contain one or more elements like a JTextField or a JComboBox and optionally a JLabel or anything else
  - addSettingsChangedListener
```
void addSettingsChangedListener(java.lang.Runnable runnable)
```
    Add listeners to be triggered when fields state change
  - getValues
```
java.util.Map<java.lang.String,CredentialsSerializationField> getValues()
```
    gets values for CredentialsComponent elements. Keys are names for CredentialsComponent elements. While logging in, an adapter will get a ExtendedLoginData object which will contain this map (values may be updated by the user)
  - setValues
```
void setValues(java.util.Map<java.lang.String,CredentialsSerializationField> values)
```
    sets values for CredentialsComponent elements while restoring saved values.
  - getAliases
```
default java.util.List<<any>> getAliases()
```
    Provide pair(s) of legacy name and current name for this credentials element if there are any. Used for compatibility with an older credentials element names. If "current name" (second element in a pair) does not have a corresponding value stored in the settings yet, value will be taken from "legacy name". There might be multiple pairs mapping to the same "current name", in which case only the first matched one will have effect.
    
    If an adapter is switched to extended credentials for the first time common old names for login, password and demo check box are found in CredentialsComponentUtil
