org.refcodes.eventbus

Interface EventBus<E extends Event<?>,O extends Observer<E>,EM extends EventMatcher<E>,H>

All Superinterfaces:

EventBusObservable<E,O,EM,H>, EventBusPublisher<E>, EventMatcher<E>, HandleLookup<H,O>, org.refcodes.matcher.Matcher<E>, Publisher<E>

All Known Implementing Classes:

EventBusImpl

public interface EventBus<E extends Event<?>,O extends Observer<E>,EM extends EventMatcher<E>,H>
extends EventBusPublisher<E>, EventBusObservable<E,O,EM,H>

The EventBus is the (virtual) machine wide manager for ActionEvent handling.

TIPP: In order to distinguish MetaDataEventImpl instances from each other, create an actions enumeration, enumerating the various event actions you support. Pass the actual action you intend to notify upon to the according constructor, as an Observer you may use the declarative method EventMatcherByDeclaration.actionEqualWith(Object) to test whether your action was notified (or a simple switch case statement).
