public ThreadSafeListenableImpl()

Method Detail

addListener

public void addListener(ListenerT listener)

Register new listener.

Specified by:

addListener in interface Listenable<ListenerT>

Parameters:

listener - Listener.

removeListener

public ListenerT removeListener(ListenerT listener)

Unregister listener. Due to implementation specifics, the listener may get notified a few more times after it is unregistered. It is guaranteed that the listener will not get notified after it is removed, if you have only one notification thread ( visitListeners(ThrowingVisitor) is called always by the same thread) and removal happens on that notification thread.

Specified by:

removeListener in interface Listenable<ListenerT>

Parameters:

listener - Registered listener.

Returns:

the actual listener being registered. This is useful when the passed in instance is only used for identification and the actual listener needs to be properly disposed of.

visitListeners

public void visitListeners(ThreadSafeListenableImpl.ThrowingVisitor<ListenerT> visitor)
                    throws Exception

Visit registered listeners with the specified visitor.

Parameters:

visitor - Visitor.

Throws:

Exception - Error thrown by the visitor.

visitListeners

public void visitListeners(ThreadSafeListenableImpl.Visitor<ListenerT> visitor)

Visit registered listeners with the specified visitor.

Parameters:

visitor - Visitor.
