public class ListEvent
extends ChangeEvent

A "list" event gets delivered whenever a model changes a "bound" or "constrained" list. A ListEvent is sent as an argument to the ListChangeListener. The intent is that any listener can keep itself synchronized with the model's list via the list events it receives and need not maintain a reference to the original list.

Provisional API: This class is part of an interim API that is still under development and expected to change significantly before reaching stability. It is available at this early stage to solicit feedback from pioneering adopters on the understanding that any code that uses this API will almost certainly be broken (repeatedly) as the API evolves.
