While adding @param and @return tags to appease doclint, I came across javax.swing.plaf.SplitPanUI.finishedPaintingChildren(). I find the description of this method a little baffling. It's either missing some words or punctuation, or is just simply stated in a confusing manner. Can you offer some explanation for what this method does and maybe suggest a better wording for the description?

    Messaged after the JSplitPane the receiver is providing the look
    and feel for paints its children.


It sounds strange for me too. I think it is better to use the description from the BasicSplitPaneUI.finishedPaintingChildren() method: - Called when the specified split pane has finished painting its children.
http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/javax/swing/plaf/basic/BasicSplitPaneUI.html#finishedPaintingChildren%28javax.swing.JSplitPane,%20java.awt.Graphics%29

However, changing the current description in the SplitPaneUI requires creating the CCC request.

     Thanks,
