This class multicasts events to event listeners. Each multicaster has two listeners, cunningly named a and b. When an event source calls one of the listener methods of the multicaster, the multicaster calls the same listener method on both a and b. Multicasters are built into trees using the static add() and remove() methods. In this way a single event can be sent to many listeners.
Static methods make it easy to implement event multicasting in component subclasses. Each time an add<type>Listener() function is called in the component subclass, call the corresponding AWTEventMulticaster.add() method to chain together (or "tree up") listeners. Similarly, when a remove<type>Listener() function is called, AWTEventMulticaster.remove() can be called to remove a chained listener.

One of the EventListeners this AWTEventMulticaster sends events to.
One of the EventListeners this AWTEventMulticaster sends events to.
A listener that receives events.
A listener that receives events.
Constructs an AWTEventMulticaster that sends events it receives to the supplied listeners. The constructor is protected because it is only the class methods of AWTEventMulticaster that ever instantiate this class.
