+/** describes a controller which can be used to browse and modify properties of form controls.
+
+ <p>The controller can be plugged into an <type scope="com::sun::star::frame">XFrame</type>, and will
+ provide a visual component for inspecting control properties. This means it allows to interactively control
+ several aspects of a <type>FormControlModel</type> or <type>DataAwareControlModel</type>, such as it's
+ data binding, it's layout, and it's event binding</p>
+
+ <p>For using a PropertyBrowserController, you need to
+ <ul><li>instatiate it at a service factory of your choice</li>
+ <li>attach it to an empty frame of your choice</li>
+ <li>set the IntrospectedObject property to the control model which you wish to analyze</li>
+ </ul>
+ </p>
+
+ @example Java
+ <listing>
+ XFrame xFrame = getNewEmptyFrame();
+ XMultiServiceFactory xORB = getORB();
+ XPropertySet xControlModel = getMyControlModel();
+
+ // instantiate the controller
+ XController xController = (XController)UnoRuntime.queryInterface( XController.class,
+ xORB.createInstance( "com.sun.star.form.PropertyBrowserController" ) );
+
+ // marry the controller and the frame. This will cause the controller
+ // to create a visual component within the frame to inspect our object
+ xController.attachFrame( xFrame )
+
+ // tell the controller which object to inspect
+ XPropertySet xControllerProps = (XPropertySet)UnoRuntime.queryInterface(
+ XPropertySet.class, xController );
+
+ xControllerProps.setPropertyValue( "IntrospectedObject", xControlModel );
+ </listing>
+
+ @see com::sun::star::frame::XController
+
+ @deprecated
+ <p>Note that nowadays, this service is only a legacy wrapper using the
+ <type scope="com::sun::star::inspection">ObjectInspector</type> and the
+ <type scope="com::sun::star::form::inspection">DefaultFormComponentInspectorModel</type> services, and knitting them together.</p>
