`int`	`getAccessibleChildrenCount(JComponent c)`	Returns the number of accessible children in the object.
`Dimension`	`getPreferredSize(JComponent c)`	Returns the specified component's preferred size appropriate for the look and feel.
`void`	`installUI(JComponent c)`	Configures the specified component appropriately for the look and feel.
`void`	`uninstallUI(JComponent c)`	Reverses configuration which was done on the specified component during `installUI`.
