/**
 * Utility class to perform asynchronous event dispatch.
 * it provides a simple mechanism to allow dispatch of events using the
 * single method call {@link #dispatchEvent(EventObject)}, which schedules the event
 * to be propagated to the registered listeners in a separate thread.
 * The mechanism of actual event notification is specified using an
 * implementation of {@link EventNotifier}.
 * The {@link EventListener} list provided on creation should ideally
 * be an instance of {@link CopyOnWriteArrayList}, which allows safe iteration
 * without making a copy. If this type is not used, a copy of of the listeners
 * is taken each time an event dispatch is performed, synchronizing on the list
 * instance during the copy.
