Class EventPublisherImpl

java.lang.Object

com.atlassian.event.internal.EventPublisherImpl

All Implemented Interfaces:

EventListenerRegistrar, EventPublisher

public final class EventPublisherImpl
extends Object
implements EventPublisher

The default implementation of the EventPublisher interface.

One can customise the event listening by instantiating with custom listener handlers and the event dispatching through EventDispatcher. See the com.atlassian.event.spi package for more information.

Since:

2.0

Constructor Summary

Constructors

Constructor and Description
EventPublisherImpl(EventDispatcher eventDispatcher, ListenerHandlersConfiguration listenerHandlersConfiguration) If you need to customise the asynchronous handling, you should use the AsynchronousAbleEventDispatcher together with a custom executor.
EventPublisherImpl(EventDispatcher eventDispatcher, ListenerHandlersConfiguration listenerHandlersConfiguration, com.atlassian.plugin.scope.ScopeManager scopeManager) Inherits EventPublisherImpl(EventDispatcher, ListenerHandlersConfiguration) and allows injection of scope manager

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
void	publish(Object event) The order in which registered listeners are invoked is predictable.
void	register(Object listener) Register a listener to receive events.
void	unregister(Object listener) Un-register a listener so that it will no longer receive events.
void	unregisterAll() Un-register all listeners that this registrar knows about.

Constructor Detail

EventPublisherImpl

public EventPublisherImpl(EventDispatcher eventDispatcher,
                          ListenerHandlersConfiguration listenerHandlersConfiguration)

If you need to customise the asynchronous handling, you should use the AsynchronousAbleEventDispatcher together with a custom executor. You might also want to have a look at using the EventThreadFactory to keep the naming of event threads consistent with the default naming of the Atlassian Event library.

Parameters:

eventDispatcher - the event dispatcher to be used with the publisher

listenerHandlersConfiguration - the list of listener handlers to be used with this publisher

AsynchronousAbleEventDispatcher, EventThreadFactory

EventPublisherImpl

public EventPublisherImpl(EventDispatcher eventDispatcher,
                          ListenerHandlersConfiguration listenerHandlersConfiguration,
                          com.atlassian.plugin.scope.ScopeManager scopeManager)

Inherits EventPublisherImpl(EventDispatcher, ListenerHandlersConfiguration) and allows injection of scope manager

Parameters:

eventDispatcher - the event dispatcher to be used with the publisher

listenerHandlersConfiguration - the list of listener handlers to be used with this publisher

scopeManager - the scope manager

Method Detail

publish

public void publish(Object event)

The order in which registered listeners are invoked is predictable. Listeners will be invoked for listeners registered on the object itself, then listeners on the parent class, then the grandparent and so on until finally all listeners for java.lang.Object are invoked. After walking the class hierarchy the interface listeners are invoked, again from the most specific interface first. Note that the ordering within a specific event type is not guaranteed. If there are multiple registered listeners for IssueEvent, then they will be invoked in the order of registration. It is however guaranteed that a listener for IssueEvent will be invoked before a listener for Event

Specified by:

publish in interface EventPublisher

Parameters:

event - the event to publish

register

public void register(Object listener)

Description copied from interface: EventListenerRegistrar

Register a listener to receive events. All implementations must support registration of listeners where event handling methods are indicated by the EventListener annotation. Legacy implementations may also support listeners which implement the now-deprecated EventListener interface.

Specified by:

register in interface EventListenerRegistrar

Parameters:

listener - The listener that is being registered

See Also:

annotation which can be used to indicate event listener methods

unregister

public void unregister(Object listener)

Description copied from interface: EventListenerRegistrar

Un-register a listener so that it will no longer receive events. If the given listener is not registered nothing will happen.

Specified by:

unregister in interface EventListenerRegistrar

Parameters:

listener - The listener to un-register

unregisterAll

public void unregisterAll()

Description copied from interface: EventListenerRegistrar

Un-register all listeners that this registrar knows about.

Specified by:

unregisterAll in interface EventListenerRegistrar
