## Uses of Class
java.awt.AWTEvent

Packages that use AWTEvent
java.awt | Contains all of the classes for creating user interfaces and for painting graphics and images.
java.awt.event | Provides interfaces and classes for dealing with different types of events fired by AWT components.
java.awt.im | Provides classes and interfaces for the input method framework.
java.awt.im.spi | Provides interfaces that enable the development of input methods that can be used with any Java runtime environment.
javax.swing.event | Provides for events fired by Swing components.

Uses of AWTEvent in java.awt

Methods in java.awt that return AWTEvent
`protected AWTEvent` | `Component.coalesceEvents(AWTEvent existingEvent, AWTEvent newEvent)` Potentially coalesce an event being posted with an existing event.
`static AWTEvent` | `EventQueue.getCurrentEvent()` Returns the the event currently being dispatched by the `EventQueue` associated with the calling thread.
`AWTEvent` | `EventQueue.getNextEvent()` Removes an event from the `EventQueue` and returns it.
`AWTEvent` | `EventQueue.peekEvent()` Returns the first event on the `EventQueue` without removing it.
`AWTEvent` | `EventQueue.peekEvent(int id)` Returns the first event with the specified id, if any.

Methods in java.awt with parameters of type AWTEvent
`protected AWTEvent` | `Component.coalesceEvents(AWTEvent existingEvent, AWTEvent newEvent)` Potentially coalesce an event being posted with an existing event.
`abstract boolean` | `KeyboardFocusManager.dispatchEvent(AWTEvent e)` This method is called by the AWT event dispatcher requesting that the current KeyboardFocusManager dispatch the specified event on its behalf.
`boolean` | `DefaultKeyboardFocusManager.dispatchEvent(AWTEvent e)` This method is called by the AWT event dispatcher requesting that the current KeyboardFocusManager dispatch the specified event on its behalf.
`protected void` | `EventQueue.dispatchEvent(AWTEvent event)` Dispatches an event.
`void` | `MenuComponent.dispatchEvent(AWTEvent e)`
`void` | `Component.dispatchEvent(AWTEvent e)` Dispatches an event to this component or one of its sub components.
`void` | `EventQueue.postEvent(AWTEvent theEvent)` Posts a 1.1-style event to the `EventQueue`.
`protected void` | `CheckboxMenuItem.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this check box menu item.
`protected void` | `Choice.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this choice.
`protected void` | `Scrollbar.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this scroll bar.
`protected void` | `Checkbox.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this check box.
`protected void` | `List.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this scrolling list.
`protected void` | `TextComponent.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this text component.
`protected void` | `TextField.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this text field.
`protected void` | `Button.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this button.
`protected void` | `MenuComponent.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events occurring on this menu component.
`protected void` | `MenuItem.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this menu item.
`protected void` | `Component.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events occurring on this component.
`protected void` | `Container.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this container.
`protected void` | `Window.processEvent(AWTEvent e)` Processes events on this window.
`void` | `KeyboardFocusManager.redispatchEvent(Component target, AWTEvent e)` Redispatches an AWTEvent in such a way that the AWT event dispatcher will not recursively request that the KeyboardFocusManager, or any installed KeyEventDispatchers, dispatch the event again.

Uses of AWTEvent in java.awt.event

Subclasses of AWTEvent in java.awt.event
`class` | `ActionEvent` A semantic event which indicates that a component-defined action occurred.
`class` | `AdjustmentEvent` The adjustment event emitted by Adjustable objects.
`class` | `ComponentEvent` A low-level event which indicates that a component moved, changed size, or changed visibility (also, the root class for the other component-level events).
`class` | `ContainerEvent` A low-level event which indicates that a container's contents changed because a component was added or removed.
`class` | `FocusEvent` A low-level event which indicates that a Component has gained or lost the input focus.
`class` | `HierarchyEvent` An event which indicates a change to the `Component` hierarchy to which a `Component` belongs.
`class` | `InputEvent` The root event class for all component-level input events.
`class` | `InputMethodEvent` Input method events contain information about text that is being composed using an input method.
`class` | `InvocationEvent` An event which executes the `run()` method on a `Runnable` when dispatched by the AWT event dispatcher thread.
`class` | `ItemEvent` A semantic event which indicates that an item was selected or deselected.
`class` | `KeyEvent` An event which indicates that a keystroke occurred in a component.
`class` | `MouseEvent` An event which indicates that a mouse action occurred in a component.
`class` | `MouseWheelEvent` An event which indicates that the mouse wheel was rotated in a component.
`class` | `PaintEvent` The component-level paint event.
`class` | `TextEvent` A semantic event which indicates that an object's text changed.
`class` | `WindowEvent` A low-level event that indicates that a window has changed its status.

Methods in java.awt.event with parameters of type AWTEvent
`void` | `AWTEventListenerProxy.eventDispatched(AWTEvent evt)` Forwards the property change event to the listener delegate.
`void` | `AWTEventListener.eventDispatched(AWTEvent event)` Invoked when an event is dispatched in the AWT.

Uses of AWTEvent in java.awt.im

Methods in java.awt.im with parameters of type AWTEvent
`void` | `InputContext.dispatchEvent(AWTEvent event)` Dispatches an event to the active input method.

Uses of AWTEvent in java.awt.im.spi

Methods in java.awt.im.spi with parameters of type AWTEvent
