//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
// This file defines the view representing the button that sends whatever text is entered in the input
// text field to the the RT processing. This example demonstrates how to extend a Jamba custom control
// (momentary button) and get access to the state. Note how the view simply uses the state and does not
// register any parameter as nothing needs to happen when the values of the parameter it uses changes.
