Many of the JList properties are related to the process of selection. For instance,
anchorSelectionIndex , leadSelectionIndex , maxSelectionIndex , minSelectionIndex ,
selectedIndex , and selectedIndices deal with the indices of the selected rows, while
selectedValue and selectedValues relate to the contents of the selected elements.
The anchorSelectionIndex is the most recent index0 of a ListDataEvent , whereas the
leadSelectionIndex is the most recent index1 .
