/**
 * Represents an object that is capable of populating an {@link Item} container representing a cell
 * in a {@link DataGridView} with components.
 * <p>
 * Example
 * <p>
 * 
 * <pre>
 * class NamePopulator implements ICellPopulator
 * {
 *    void populateItem(final Item cellItem, final String componentId, final IModel rowModel) {
 *       User user=(User)rowModel.getObject(cellItem);
 *       String name=user.getFirstName()+&quot; &quot;+user.getLastName();
 *       cellItem.add(new Label(componentId, name);
 *     }}
 * </pre>
 * 
 * In this example the IDataProvider assigned to the DataGridView retrieves User objects from the
 * database. The cell populator adds a label to the cell that will display the full name of the
 * user.
