public class JColorChooser
extends JComponent
implements Serializable

JColorChooser provides pane of controls designed to allow a user to manipulate and select a color. This class provides 3 levels of API:

A static convenience method which shows a modal color-chooser dialog and returns the color selected by the user.
A static convenience method for creating a color-chooser dialog where ActionListeners can be specified to be invoked when the user presses one of the dialog buttons.
The ability to create instances of JColorChooser panes directly (within any container). PropertyChange listeners can be added to detect when the current "color" property changes.

                                String title,
                                Color initialColor)
```
Shows a modal color-chooser dialog and blocks until the dialog is hidden. If the user presses the "OK" button, then this method hides/disposes the dialog and returns the selected color. If the user presses the "Cancel" button or closes the dialog without pressing "OK", then this method hides/disposes the dialog and returns null.

Parameters:
c - the parent component for the dialog
title - the title for the dialog
initialColor - the initial color set when the color-chooser is shown

createDialog
```
 public static JDialog createDialog(Component c,
                                    String title,
                                    boolean modal,
                                    JColorChooser chooserPane,
                                    ActionListener okListener,
                                    ActionListener cancelListener)

Creates and returns a new dialog containing the specified ColorChooser pane along with "OK", "Cancel", and "Reset" buttons. If the "OK" or "Cancel" buttons are pressed, the dialog is automatically hidden (but not disposed).

c - c the parent component for the dialog
title - the title for the dialog
