JDK 15
15 b10Fixed

Platform: ALL
JDK: ALL

Class javax.swing.plaf.basic.BasicTreeUI
http://download.java.net/jdk7/docs/api/javax/swing/plaf/basic/BasicTreeUI.html

contains some getters/setters that are not consistent and have specification that says nothing about how they should be used and how do they behave in BasicTreeUI

  setRowHeight() / getRowHeight()
  setShowsRootHandles() / getShowsRootHandles()
  setRootVisible() / isRootVisible()
  setEditable() / isEditable()
  setCellEditor() / getCellEditor()
  setCellRenderer() / getCellRenderer()

Values passed to setter are not equal to those returned from getter. The spec says nothing about this.

While many other properties ( "largeModel", "hashColor", "model" etc) have getter/setter that correspond each other.
