Interface EventQueueListener

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, int).

Before registering your listener, you must get a valid unique type using the EventQueue.getNewType() method from the EventQueue class. Then you can register your listener using EventQueue.registerListener(EventQueueListener, int).
