I work a long time with Netbeans (since developerX2). I've written a
framework to bind the components with my data objects. But it's very simple
and works with all kind of gui components. I use the name property to set a
unique name. And I've a simple recursive loop over all received components
from Container.getComponents. 

JTextField input = new JTextField();
input.setName ("Username");

With my recursive loop I get all "data-aware" components dynamically at
runtime.

HTH, best regards,
