    - #### getAccessibleText

          public AccessibleText getAccessibleText()

      Description copied from class: `JTextComponent.AccessibleJTextComponent`
      Get the AccessibleText associated with this object. In the implementation of the Java Accessibility API for this class, return this object, which is responsible for implementing the AccessibleText interface on behalf of itself.
      Overrides:
        `getAccessibleText` in class `JTextComponent.AccessibleJTextComponent`
      Returns:
        this object
      See Also:
        `AccessibleText`

    - #### getAccessibleChildrenCount

          public int getAccessibleChildrenCount()

      Returns the number of accessible children of the object.
      Overrides:
        `getAccessibleChildrenCount` in class `JComponent.AccessibleJComponent`
      Returns:
        the number of accessible children of the object.

    - #### getAccessibleChild

          public Accessible getAccessibleChild(int i)

      Returns the specified Accessible child of the object. The Accessible children of an Accessible object are zero-based, so the first child of an Accessible child is at index 0, the second child is at index 1, and so on.
      Overrides:
        `getAccessibleChild` in class `JComponent.AccessibleJComponent`
      Parameters:
        `i` - zero-based index of child
      Returns:
        the Accessible child of the object
      See Also:
        `getAccessibleChildrenCount()`

    - #### getAccessibleAt

          public Accessible getAccessibleAt(Point p)

      Returns the Accessible child, if one exists, contained at the local coordinate Point.
      Specified by:
        `getAccessibleAt` in interface `AccessibleComponent`
      Overrides:
        `getAccessibleAt` in class `Container.AccessibleAWTContainer`
      Parameters:
        `p` - The point relative to the coordinate system of this object.
      Returns:
        the Accessible, if it exists, at the specified location; otherwise null
