Method Detail

createTree

EventDispatchTree createTree()

mergeTree

EventDispatchTree mergeTree(EventDispatchTree tree)

append

EventDispatchTree append(EventDispatcher eventDispatcher)

Description copied from interface: EventDispatchChain

Appends the specified EventDispatcher to this chain. Returns a reference to the chain with the appended element.

The caller shouldn't assume that this EventDispatchChain remains unchanged nor that the returned value will reference a different chain after the call. All this depends on the EventDispatchChain implementation.

So the call should be always done in the following form: chain = chain.append(eventDispatcher);

Specified by:

append in interface EventDispatchChain

Parameters:

eventDispatcher - the EventDispatcher to append to the chain

Returns:

the chain with the appended event dispatcher

prepend

EventDispatchTree prepend(EventDispatcher eventDispatcher)

Description copied from interface: EventDispatchChain

Prepends the specified EventDispatcher to this chain. Returns a reference to the chain with the prepended element.

The caller shouldn't assume that this EventDispatchChain remains unchanged nor that the returned value will reference a different chain after the call. All this depends on the EventDispatchChain implementation.

So the call should be always done in the following form: chain = chain.prepend(eventDispatcher);

Specified by:

prepend in interface EventDispatchChain

Parameters:

eventDispatcher - the EventDispatcher to prepend to the chain

Returns:

the chain with the prepended event dispatcher
