  Description copied from interface: MethodEventSource

  Registers a new event listener with the specified activation method to listen events generated by this component. If the activation method does not have any arguments the event object will not be passed to it when it's called.

  For more information on the inheritable event mechanism see the com.vaadin.event package documentation.

  Specified by:

  addListener in interface MethodEventSource

  Parameters:

  eventType - the type of the listened event. Events of this type or its subclasses activate the listener.

  object - the object instance who owns the activation method.

  method - the activation method.

  Deprecated.

  As of 8.12. Use addListener(Class, SerializableEventListener, Method, String, SharedState) instead

  Registers a new event listener with the specified activation method to listen events generated by this component. If the activation method does not have any arguments the event object will not be passed to it when it's called.

  This method additionally informs the event-api to stop routing events with the given eventIdentifier to the components handleEvent function call.

  The only way to remove the listener is to use the returned Registration. The other methods, e.g. removeAllListeners() do not do that.

  For more information on the inheritable event mechanism see the com.vaadin.event package documentation.

  Parameters:

  eventType - the type of the listened event. Events of this type or its subclasses activate the listener.

  target - the object instance who owns the activation method.

  method - the activation method.

  eventIdentifier - the identifier of the event to listen for

  state - The component State

  Returns:

  a registration object for removing the listener

  Throws:

  IllegalArgumentException - unless method has exactly one match in target

  NullPointerException - if target is null

  Since:

  8.2

  Description copied from interface: MethodEventSource

  Registers a new listener with the specified activation method to listen events generated by this component. If the activation method does not have any arguments the event object will not be passed to it when it's called.

  This version of addListener gets the name of the activation method as a parameter. The actual method is reflected from object, and unless exactly one match is found, java.lang.IllegalArgumentException is thrown.

  For more information on the inheritable event mechanism see the com.vaadin.event package documentation.

  Specified by:

  addListener in interface MethodEventSource

  Parameters:

  eventType - the type of the listened event. Events of this type or its subclasses activate the listener.

  object - the object instance who owns the activation method.

  methodName - the name of the activation method.

  Returns:

  a registration object for removing the listener

  Specified by:

  removeListener in interface MethodEventSource

  Parameters:

  eventType - the exact event type the object listens to.

  target - the target object that has registered to listen to events of type eventType with one or more methods.

• removeAllListeners

  public void removeAllListeners()

  Removes all listeners from event router.

• fireEvent

  public void fireEvent​(EventObject event)

  Sends an event to all registered listeners. The listeners will decide if the activation method should be called or not.

  Parameters:

  event - the Event to be sent to all listeners.

• fireEvent

  public void fireEvent​(EventObject event,
                        ErrorHandler errorHandler)

  If an error handler is set, the processing of other listeners will continue after the error handler method call unless the error handler itself throws an exception.

  Parameters:

  event - the Event to be sent to all listeners.

  errorHandler - error handler to use to handle any exceptions thrown by listeners or null to let the exception propagate to the caller, preventing further listener calls

• hasListeners

  Checks if the given Event type is listened by a listener registered to this router.

  Parameters:

  eventType - the event type to be checked

• getListeners

  public Collection<?> getListeners​(Class<?> eventType)

  Returns all listeners that match or extend the given event type.

  Parameters:

  eventType - The type of event to return listeners for.

  Returns:

  A collection with all registered listeners. Empty if no listeners are found.
