Interface PluginEventManager

All Known Implementing Classes:

DefaultPluginEventManager

public interface PluginEventManager

Defines the event manager for use with internal Atlassian Plugins framework events. How listeners are defined is up to the implementation. Implementations should allow listeners to somehow identify which events they would like to listen for, then have the appropriate methods called if the event is the desired class or a subclass/implementation. This means a listener could listen for an event of type java.lang.Object and should be notified for every event.
