/**
 * The EventHandler class provides
 * support for dynamically generating event listeners whose methods
 * execute a simple statement involving an incoming event object
 * and a target object.
 * 

* The EventHandler class is intended to be used by interactive tools, such as * application builders, that allow developers to make connections between * beans. Typically connections are made from a user interface bean * (the event source) * to an application logic bean (the target). The most effective * connections of this kind isolate the application logic from the user * interface. For example, the EventHandler for a * connection from a JCheckBox to a method * that accepts a boolean value can deal with extracting the state * of the check box and passing it directly to the method so that * the method is isolated from the user interface layer. *

* Inner classes are another, more general way to handle events from * user interfaces. The EventHandler class * handles only a subset of what is possible using inner * classes. However, EventHandler works better * with the long-term persistence scheme than inner classes. * Also, using EventHandler in large applications in * which the same interface is implemented many times can * reduce the disk and memory footprint of the application. *

* The reason that listeners created with EventHandler * have such a small * footprint is that the Proxy class, on which * the EventHandler relies, shares implementations * of identical * interfaces. For example, if you use * the EventHandler create methods to make * all the ActionListeners in an application, * all the action listeners will be instances of a single class * (one created by the Proxy class). * In general, listeners based on * the Proxy class require one listener class * to be created per listener type (interface), * whereas the inner class * approach requires one class to be created per listener * (object that implements the interface). * *

* You don't generally deal directly with EventHandler * instances. * Instead, you use one of the EventHandler * create methods to create * an object that implements a given listener interface. * This listener object uses an EventHandler object * behind the scenes to encapsulate information about the * event, the object to be sent a message when the event occurs, * the message (method) to be sent, and any argument * to the method. * The following section gives examples of how to create listener * objects using the create methods. * *

Examples of Using EventHandler

* * The simplest use of EventHandler is to install * a listener that calls a method on the target object with no arguments. * In the following example we create an ActionListener * that invokes the toFront method on an instance * of javax.swing.JFrame. * *
*
 *myButton.addActionListener(
 *    (ActionListener)EventHandler.create(ActionListener.class, frame, "toFront"));
 *
*
* * When myButton is pressed, the statement * frame.toFront() will be executed. One could get * the same effect, with some additional compile-time type safety, * by defining a new implementation of the ActionListener * interface and adding an instance of it to the button: * *
*
//Equivalent code using an inner class instead of EventHandler.
 *myButton.addActionListener(new ActionListener() {
 *    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
 *        frame.toFront();
 *    }
 *});
 *
*
* * The next simplest use of EventHandler is * to extract a property value from the first argument * of the method in the listener interface (typically an event object) * and use it to set the value of a property in the target object. * In the following example we create an ActionListener that * sets the nextFocusableComponent property of the target * (myButton) object to the value of the "source" property of the event. * *
*
 *EventHandler.create(ActionListener.class, myButton, "nextFocusableComponent", "source")
 *
*
* * This would correspond to the following inner class implementation: * *
*
//Equivalent code using an inner class instead of EventHandler.
 *new ActionListener() {
 *    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
 *        myButton.setNextFocusableComponent((Component)e.getSource());
 *    }
 *}
 *
*
* * It's also possible to create an EventHandler that * just passes the incoming event object to the target's action. * If the fourth EventHandler.create argument is * an empty string, then the event is just passed along: * *
*
 *EventHandler.create(ActionListener.class, target, "doActionEvent", "")
 *
*
* * This would correspond to the following inner class implementation: * *
*
//Equivalent code using an inner class instead of EventHandler.
 *new ActionListener() {
 *    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
 *        target.doActionEvent(e);
 *    }
 *}
 *
*
* * Probably the most common use of EventHandler * is to extract a property value from the * source of the event object and set this value as * the value of a property of the target object. * In the following example we create an ActionListener that * sets the "label" property of the target * object to the value of the "text" property of the * source (the value of the "source" property) of the event. * *
*
 *EventHandler.create(ActionListener.class, myButton, "label", "source.text")
 *
*
* * This would correspond to the following inner class implementation: * *
*
//Equivalent code using an inner class instead of EventHandler.
 *new ActionListener {
 *    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
 *        myButton.setLabel(((JTextField)e.getSource()).getText());
 *    }
 *}
 *
*
* * The event property may be "qualified" with an arbitrary number * of property prefixes delimited with the "." character. The "qualifying" * names that appear before the "." characters are taken as the names of * properties that should be applied, left-most first, to * the event object. *

* For example, the following action listener * *

*
 *EventHandler.create(ActionListener.class, target, "a", "b.c.d")
 *
*
* * might be written as the following inner class * (assuming all the properties had canonical getter methods and * returned the appropriate types): * *
*
//Equivalent code using an inner class instead of EventHandler.
 *new ActionListener {
 *    public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
 *        target.setA(e.getB().getC().isD());
 *    }
 *}
 *
*
* The target property may also be "qualified" with an arbitrary number * of property prefixs delimited with the "." character. For example, the * following action listener: *
 *   EventHandler.create(ActionListener.class, target, "a.b", "c.d")
 * 
* might be written as the following inner class * (assuming all the properties had canonical getter methods and * returned the appropriate types): *
 *   //Equivalent code using an inner class instead of EventHandler.
 *   new ActionListener {
 *     public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
 *         target.getA().setB(e.getC().isD());
 *    }
 *}
 *
*

* As EventHandler ultimately relies on reflection to invoke * a method we recommend against targeting an overloaded method. For example, * if the target is an instance of the class MyTarget which is * defined as: *

 *   public class MyTarget {
 *     public void doIt(String);
 *     public void doIt(Object);
 *   }
 * 
* Then the method doIt is overloaded. EventHandler will invoke * the method that is appropriate based on the source. If the source is * null, then either method is appropriate and the one that is invoked is * undefined. For that reason we recommend against targeting overloaded * methods. * * @see java.lang.reflect.Proxy * @see java.util.EventObject * * @since 1.4 * * @author Mark Davidson * @author Philip Milne * @author Hans Muller * */ public class EventHandler implements InvocationHandler { private Object target; private String action; private final String eventPropertyName; private final String listenerMethodName; private final AccessControlContext acc = AccessController.getContext(); /** * Creates a new EventHandler object; * you generally use one of the create methods * instead of invoking this constructor directly.

* The eventPropertyName string is used to extract a value * from the incoming event object that is passed to the target * method. The common case is the target method takes no arguments, in * which case a value of null should be used for the * eventPropertyName. Alternatively if you want * the incoming event object passed directly to the target method use * the empty string. * The format of the eventPropertyName string is a sequence of * methods or properties where each method or * property is applied to the value returned by the preceding method * starting from the incoming event object. * The syntax is: propertyName{.propertyName}* * where propertyName matches a method or * property. For example, to extract the point * property from a MouseEvent, you could use either * "point" or "getPoint" as the * eventPropertyName. To extract the "text" property from * a MouseEvent with a JLabel source use any * of the following as eventPropertyName: * "source.text", * "getSource.text" "getSource.getText" or * "source.getText". If a method can not be found, or an * exception is generated as part of invoking a method a * RuntimeException will be thrown at dispatch time. For * example, if the incoming event object is null, and * eventPropertyName is non-null and not empty, a * RuntimeException will be thrown. *

* The action argument is of the same format as the * eventPropertyName argument where the last property name * identifies either a method name or writable property. *

* If the listenerMethodName is null * all methods in the interface trigger the action to be * executed on the target. *

* For example, to create a MouseListener that sets the target * object's origin property to the incoming MouseEvent's * location (that's the value of mouseEvent.getPoint()) each * time a mouse button is pressed, one would write: *

*
     *EventHandler.create(MouseListener.class, target, "origin", "point", "mousePressed");

* * This is comparable to writing a MouseListener in which all * of the methods except mousePressed are no-ops: * *
