Interface EventFilter
public interface netscape.application.EventFilter
{
/* Methods
*/
public abstract Object filterEvents(Vector);
}
Interface implemented by objects interested in filtering Events.
An EventFilter's filterEvents() method should examine the
contents of the events Vector and modify it as appropriate (add Events,
remove Events, reorder Events, etc.).
Methods
filterEvents
public abstract Object filterEvents(Vector events)
- Called to invoke Event filtering on the collection of Events contained
in events. This method can add, remove, reorder the Vector's
Events. The return value will be the return value from EventLoop's
filterEvents() method.
The implementation of this method should be as simple as possible
since the event queue is locked during its execution. This method
method should not call some IFC widgets methods since a deadlock
can happen in some situations.
