  • *
  • If any view level listeners have been installed * by previous calls to {@link #subscribeToEvent(Class, Class, * javax.faces.event.SystemEventListener)} on the {@link * javax.faces.component.UIViewRoot}, perform algorithm * traverseListenerList on the list of listeners for that * event installed on the UIViewRoot.

  • *
  • If any Application level listeners have * been installed by previous calls to {@link * #subscribeToEvent(Class, Class, * javax.faces.event.SystemEventListener)}, perform algorithm * traverseListenerList on the list.

  • * *
  • If any Application level listeners have * been installed by previous calls to {@link * #subscribeToEvent(Class, javax.faces.event.SystemEventListener)}, * perform algorithm traverseListenerList on the * list.

  • * *
* *

* *

Algorithm traverseListenerList: For each listener in * the list,

* *
    * *
  • Call {@link * javax.faces.event.SystemEventListener#isListenerForSource}, passing the * source argument. If this returns * false, take no action on the listener.

  • * *
  • Otherwise, if the event to be passed to the listener * instances has not yet been constructed, construct the event, * passing source as the argument to the * one-argument constructor that takes an Object. * This same event instance must be passed to all listener * instances.

  • * *
  • Call {@link javax.faces.event.SystemEvent#isAppropriateListener}, * passing the listener instance as the argument. If this * returns false, take no action on the * listener.
