Interface EventQueueListener

All Known Implementing Classes:

NullEventQueueListener

public interface EventQueueListener

EventQueueListener is an interface to be implemented by parties interested to receive events of a specific type from an EventQueue.

An event queue listener can be registered to an event queue using EventQueue.registerListener(EventQueueListener).

When you register your listener, the EventQueue.registerListener(EventQueueListener) method returns the unique type identifier associated with that listener. This type can then be used to send events to the corresponding listener.
