ibm.techexplorer.awt.event
Interface MouseListener

All Known Subinterfaces:

techexplorerListener

All Known Implementing Classes:

MouseAdaptor, techexplorerAdaptor

public interface MouseListener

Description

This interface defines the methods that a Java object must implement to receive notifications for mouse events (MOUSE_CLICKED, MOUSE_PRESSED, MOUSE_RELEASED, MOUSE_ENTERED, MOUSE_EXITED) on techexplorer instances. When a MouseEvent corresponding to one of the aforementioned types occurs, a techexplorer instance notifies registered listeners by invoking one of the methods defined in the MouseListener interface. The ibm.techexplorer.techexplorer Java reflection of the techexplorer plug-in provides the addMouseListener and removeMouseListener methods for managing MouseListener objects.

The ibm.techexplorer.awt.event.MouseAdaptor class can be used as it provides empty default implementations for each of the methods imposed by the MouseListener interface.
