java.lang.Object

org.mmbase.core.event.EventManager

All Implemented Interfaces:

EventListener, SystemEventListener, WeightEventListener

public class EventManager
extends Object
implements SystemEventListener

This class manages all event related stuff. it is the place to register event brokers, and it will propagate all events. The class is set up as a singleton. When the manager is instantiated, event brokers are added for Event, NodeEvent and RelationEvent

Method Detail

getInstance

public static EventManager getInstance()

use this metod to get an instance of the event manager

notify

public void notify(SystemEvent se)

Specified by:

notify in interface SystemEventListener

getWeight

public int getWeight()

Specified by:

getWeight in interface WeightEventListener

configure

protected void configure(String resource)

getBrokers

public Collection<EventBroker> getBrokers()

addEventBroker

public void addEventBroker(EventBroker broker)

add an event broker for a specific type of event

Parameters:

broker -

removeEventBroker

public void removeEventBroker(EventBroker broker)

remove a broker for a specific type of event

Parameters:

broker -

addEventListener

public void addEventListener(EventListener listener)

addEventListener

protected void addEventListener(EventListener listener,
                                boolean propagateToCollected)

Parameters:

listener -

removeEventListener

public void removeEventListener(EventListener listener)

Parameters:

listener -

propagateEvent

public void propagateEvent(Event event)

This method will propagate the given event to all the aproprate listeners. what makes a listener apropriate is determined by it's type (class) and by possible constraint properties (if the handling broker supports those

Parameters:

event -

AbstractEventBroker

propagateEvent

public void propagateEvent(Event event,
                           boolean asynchronous)

Like propagateEvent(org.mmbase.core.event.Event) but with an extra argument 'asynchronous'.

Parameters:

asynchronous - If true, execute the propagation in a different thread, and don't let this thread wait for the result.
