Class ControllerEventQueue

java.lang.Object
  java.lang.Thread
      net.sf.fmj.ejmf.toolkit.media.ControllerEventQueue

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable

public class ControllerEventQueue
extends java.lang.Thread

This class provides a dispatching mechanism for ControllerEvents. All events posted to this queue are dispatched to a Vector of ControllerListeners given when the queue is constructed. Note that ControllerListeners may be added or removed from this Vector from outside of this class, and these changes will be reflected in the dispatching mechanism.
