public interface WindowFocusListener extends EventListener
The listener interface for receiving WindowEvents
, including WINDOW_GAINED_FOCUS
and WINDOW_LOST_FOCUS
events. The class that is interested in processing a WindowEvent
either implements this interface (and all the methods it contains) or extends the abstract WindowAdapter
class (overriding only the methods of interest). The listener object created from that class is then registered with a Window
using the Window
's addWindowFocusListener
method. When the Window
's status changes by virtue of it being opened, closed, activated, deactivated, iconified, or deiconified, or by focus being transferred into or out of the Window
, the relevant method in the listener object is invoked, and the WindowEvent
is passed to it.
