 The event management model

 Sursă de evenimente: any graphical component.

 Eveniment: object launched by a source of events. The event is of a type

that specializes in the AWTEvent class.

 Ascultător: object that implements an event handler of a particular type.

The respective manager will indicate the actions that will be performed
when the event for which it was registered appears. The class must
implement an EventListener interface.

 Anonymous classes and adapters

 Any multi-method xxxxListener interface has an xxxxAdapter class that

introduces an empty implementation for interface methods. The listening
object may belong to a subclass of the adapter that redefines only the
required methods.
 In practice, the listener object is part of an anonymous internal class
defined as the subclass of the listener.
