Interface Summary

ArmListener	Classes which implement this interface provide a method that deals with the event that is generated when a widget, such as a menu item, is armed.
ControlListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the events that are generated by moving and resizing controls.
DisposeListener	Classes which implement this interface provide a method that deals with the event that is generated when a widget is disposed.
FocusListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the events that are generated as controls gain and lose focus.
HelpListener	Classes which implement this interface provide a method that deals with the event that is generated when help is requested for a control, typically when the user presses F1.
KeyListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the events that are generated as keys are pressed on the system keyboard.
MenuListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the hiding and showing of menus.
ModifyListener	Classes which implement this interface provide a method that deals with the events that are generated when text is modified.
MouseListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the events that are generated as mouse buttons are pressed.
MouseMoveListener	Classes which implement this interface provide a method that deals with the events that are generated as the mouse pointer moves.
MouseTrackListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the events that are generated as the mouse pointer passes (or hovers) over controls.
PaintListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the events that are generated when the control needs to be painted.
SelectionListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the events that are generated when selection occurs in a control.
ShellListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with changes in state of Shells.
TraverseListener	Classes which implement this interface provide a method that deals with the events that are generated when a traverse event occurs in a control.
TreeListener	Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the expanding and collapsing of tree branches.
VerifyListener	Classes which implement this interface provide a method that deals with the events that are generated when text is about to be modified.

Package org.eclipse.swt.events Description

SWT typed listener support.

Package Specification

This package provides the typed events and listener interfaces and, where appropriate, matching adapter classes which make up the "high level" typed listener support provided by SWT.

For contrast, see also the untyped listener support provided by class org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Event and interface org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Listener, and the addListener and removeListener methods in class org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Widget.
