Hi,

I just noticed you were applying a number of optimizations that aren't really 
needed. Private members are implicitly final methods and thus there is no 
need to redundently mark them as such. Methods declared in a final class are 
also final methods and thus there is no reason to redundently specify final 
in this cas either.

And in a few places you actually put things like

>       /**
>        * Convert to a string
>        */
>       public final String toString()
>       {
>           return new
> StringBuffer().append(m_type).append(":").append(m_value).toString(); }
>   }

which will actually cause a slow down. An optimizing compiler will actually 
work better with 

return m_type + ":" + m_value;

because it is allowed to transform it into


final int size = 
  1 + 
  (( null != m_type ) ? m_type.length : 4) + 
  (( null != m_value ) ? m_value.length : 4)
final StringBuffer sb = new StringBuffer( 9 );
sb.append( m_type );
sb.append( ":" );
sb.append( m_value );

return sb.toString();

And things like

"You cannot lookup components " + "on a disposed ComponentManager"

are merged at compile time into 

"You cannot lookup components on a disposed ComponentManager"

So there is no reason to join them in code - especially if it makes for huge 
long lines.



And things like the following are deliberate attempts to increase readability 
and should not be collapsed into one line.

final String message = 
  "Extension " + extensions[ i ].getExtensionName() + " is not local";
throw new IllegalArgumentException( message );
