Interface IElementStateListener

public interface IElementStateListener

Interface for parties interested in standardized element changes. These changes are:

• dirty state changes
• content replacements
• moves
• deletions

The notifications sent to the element state listeners inform about those standardized, abstract changes. The concrete change applied might differ from the one the listeners are notified about, but should be interpreted as the one the listeners receive.

void	elementContentReplaced(Object element) Notifies that the content of the given element has been replaced.
