/** Handling GWT events. * *
When a HashMap or AbstractList itself is the event source, then events are not * dispatched (GWT 2.4 devmode, production mode not tested). Traced (at least in the * case of the HashMap) to SimpleEventBus getHandlerList(), where sourceMap.get(source) * returns a null list of handlers. This is strange because sourceMap.toString shows the * list is there (first entry in sourceMap) and the equivalent line in * ensureHandlerList() returns a non-null list earlier when handlers are registered. * Maybe a collection works as a key when it's the only key, but fails later when other * keys are added?
* *The user manual says adding a DOCTYPE
will enable named
* entities, but do not add it. Firefox and Chrome will still complain that the template
* is unreadable owing to undefined entities (not sure why). Instead use numeric
* entities.
Here is an outline of the most important classes:
* {@linkplain com.google.web.bindery.event.shared.Event Event} * * {@linkplain com.google.gwt.event.shared.GWTEvent GWTEvent} * - these (excepting DomEvent) are synthetic ("logical") * and have no native counterparts * * {@linkplain com.google.gwt.event.dom.client.DomEvent DomEvent} * - wraps a NativeEvent * * {@linkplain com.google.gwt.dom.client.NativeEvent NativeEvent} * * {@linkplain com.google.gwt.user.client.Event Event}* *
