Class EventQueueEntry

java.lang.Object

org.timothyb89.eventbus.EventQueueEntry

All Implemented Interfaces:

Comparable<EventQueueEntry>

public class EventQueueEntry
extends Object
implements Comparable<EventQueueEntry>

Defines an entry in the event queue for a specific event type. TODO: should we use WeakReferences here? we could potentially avoid having to ever manually deregister a class from event notifications, and just queue "expired" event listeners for removal if we see they've been garbage collected

public EventQueueEntry(Object object,
               Method method,
               int priority,
               boolean vetoable)

Method Detail

compareTo

public int compareTo(EventQueueEntry o)

Specified by:

compareTo in interface Comparable<EventQueueEntry>

notify

public void notify(Event event)

Notifies this queue entry of an event. Note that this blatantly assumes that the passed event is compatible with the method associated with this entry (as it was checked at registration time). As such, any outside invocations of this method will need to manually check this.

Parameters:

event - the event to pass to this queue entry
