  • Method Details

    • addListener

      boolean addListener(Runnable listener)
      Adds listener to this EventObserver. Adding the same listener a second time has no effect.
      Parameters:
      listener - the listener to add
      Returns:
      true if this observer did not already contain the specified listener
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - in case listener is null

    • removeListener

      boolean removeListener(Runnable listener)
      Removes listener from this EventObserver
      Parameters:
      listener - the listener to remove
      Returns:
      true if this observer contained the specified listener

    • addConsumer

      boolean addConsumer(Consumer<? super T> consumer)

      Parameters:
      consumer - the consumer to add
      Returns:
      true if this observer did not already contain the specified consumer
      Throws:
      NullPointerException - in case consumer is null

      Removes consumer from this EventObserver
      Parameters:
      consumer - the consumer to remove
      Returns:
      true if this observer contained the specified consumer

    • addWeakListener

      boolean addWeakListener(Runnable listener)
