+ * Establishes a relationship between this Property and the given
property by declaring that this Property is only relevant if the given Property
has a value equal to one of the given
+ * {@link DescribedValue} arguments.
+ * If this method is called multiple times, each with a different
dependency, then a relationship is established such that this Property is
relevant only if all dependencies are satisfied.
+ *
+ * In the case that this property is NOT considered to be relevant
(meaning that it depends on a property whose value is not specified, or whose
value does not match one of the given
+ * Described Values), the property will not be shown in the
component's configuration in the User Interface. Additionally, this property's
value will not be considered for
+ * validation. That is, if this property is configured with an invalid
value and this property depends on Property Foo, and Property Foo does not have
a value set, then the component
+ * will still be valid, because the value of this property is
irrelevant.
Review Comment:
I misunderstood the javadoc, no change needed.
