Class AWTEventMulticaster

    java.lang.Object
      java.awt.AWTEventMulticaster

All Implemented Interfaces:
  ActionListener, AdjustmentListener, ComponentListener, ContainerListener, FocusListener, HierarchyBoundsListener, HierarchyListener, InputMethodListener, ItemListener, KeyListener, MouseListener, MouseMotionListener, MouseWheelListener, TextListener, WindowFocusListener, WindowListener, WindowStateListener, EventListener

    public class AWTEventMulticaster

extends Object
implements ComponentListener, ContainerListener, FocusListener, KeyListener, MouseListener, MouseMotionListener, WindowListener, WindowFocusListener, WindowStateListener, ActionListener, ItemListener, AdjustmentListener, TextListener, InputMethodListener, HierarchyListener, HierarchyBoundsListener, MouseWheelListener

A class which implements efficient and thread-safe multi-cast event dispatching for the AWT events defined in the java.awt.event package. This class will manage an immutable structure consisting of a chain of event listeners and will dispatch events to those listeners. Because the structure is immutable, it is safe to use this API to add/remove listeners during the process of an event dispatch operation. However, event listeners added during the process of an event dispatch operation will not be notified of the event currently being dispatched. An example of how this class could be used to implement a new component which fires "action" events:

     public myComponent extends Component {
         ActionListener actionListener = null;

         public synchronized void addActionListener(ActionListener l) {
               actionListener = AWTEventMulticaster.add(actionListener, l);
         }
         public synchronized void removeActionListener(ActionListener l) {
               actionListener = AWTEventMulticaster.remove(actionListener, l);
         }
         public void processEvent(AWTEvent e) {
             // when event occurs which causes "action" semantic
             ActionListener listener = actionListener;
             if (listener != null) {
                 listener.actionPerformed(new ActionEvent());
             }
         }
     }

  Returns an array of all the objects chained as `FooListener`s by the specified `java.util.EventListener`. `FooListener`s are chained by the `AWTEventMulticaster` using the `addFooListener` method. If a `null` listener is specified, this method returns an empty array. If the specified listener is not an instance of `AWTEventMulticaster`, this method returns an array which contains only the specified listener. If no such listeners are chanined, this method returns an empty array.

  Parameters:
    `l` - the specified `java.util.EventListener`
    `listenerType` - the type of listeners requested; this parameter should specify an interface that descends from `java.util.EventListener`
  Returns:
    an array of all objects chained as `FooListener`s by the specified multicast listener, or an empty array if no such listeners have been chained by the specified multicast listener
  Throws:
    `ClassCastException` - if `listenerType` doesn't specify a class or interface that implements `java.util.EventListener`
