/**
The VObjectEventSupport class represents a list of VObjectListeners.
This is also a VObjectListener and will dispatch all VObjectEvents
that it receives.
**/
//
// Implementation note:
//
// THIS APPLIES TO ALL "EVENT SUPPORT" CLASSES IN THIS PACKAGE:
//
// Class A is defined to fire VObjectEvents. As a result, it
// has to maintain a list of the listeners. Since many classes
// in the package have to do this, we provide an "event support"
// class to maintain this list. This is patterened after
// the java.beans.PropertyChangeSupport class provided in the JDK.
//
// public class A
// {
// private VObjectEventSupport eventSupport_ = new VObjectEventSupport (this);
//
// public void addVObjectListener (VObjectListener listener)
// {
// eventSupport_.addVObjectListener (listener);
// }
//
// public void removeVObjectListener (VObjectListener listener)
// {
// eventSupport_.removeVObjectListener (listener);
// }
//
// public void someMethod ()
// {
// ... some code here ...
// eventSupport_.fireObjectChanged (anObject);
// ... some more code here ...
// }
// }
//
// There is another case where class A contains a private instance
// of class B. B fires VObjectEvents, and A needs to listen
// to B and refire all VObjectEvents. In addition, it needs
// to change the source of the event so that it looks like
// A is the source, even though B is the real source. The
// reason for this is that listeners have public access to the
// source of the event, and we don't want them to have access to B.
//
// This is all easy to accompilsh by simply adding the
// event support object as a listener to B. The event
// support object takes care of the rest.
//
// public class A
// {
// private B b_;
// private VObjectEventSupport eventSupport_ = new VObjectEventSupport (this);
//
// public A ()
// {
// b_ = new B ();
// b_.addVObjectListener (eventSupport_);
// }
// }
//
// This type of event dispatching happens all over in the
// vaccess package. This is because of the hierarchy of
// components. Consider an explorer pane that presents
// a view of a directory structure. Here is the hierarchy:
//
// AS400ExplorerPane
// |
// +-- AS400TreePane
// | |
// | +-- AS400TreeModel
// | |
// | +-- VIFSDirectory (root directory) <-----------+
// | | |
// | +-- VIFSDirectory (subdirectory) |
// | | | |
// | | +-- VIFSFile (file in subdirectory) |
// | | |
// | +-- VIFSFile (file in root directory) |
// | |
// +-- AS400DetailsPane |
// | |
// +-- AS400DetailsModel |
// | |
// +----------------------------------------------+
//
// If any object fires certain events, then all objects
// above them in the hierarchy need to hear about it. Rather
// than making all objects specifically listen to all objects
// below them, we just make them listen to the objects
// directly below them. Then they "bubble" (dispatch) them
// up the chain to the parent. All nodes in between can process
// them on the way up.
//
// Now, when one of the VIFSFile's is deleted, it will
// fire a VObjectEvent up the chain, so that:
//
// 1. The VIFSDirectory can modify its list of children.
// 2. The AS400TreeModel can remove the file from the model.
// 3. The AS400TreePane can update its view.
// 4. The AS400DetailsModel can remove the file from the model.
// 5. The AS400DetailsPane can update its view.
// 6. The AS400ExplorerPane can refire the event to its listeners.
// 7. The caller (application) can process it.
