Interface MouseListener

All Superinterfaces:: java.util.EventListener

All Known Implementing Classes:: MouseAdapter

public interface MouseListener
extends java.util.EventListener

This interface is for classes that wish to receive mouse events other than simple motion events. This includes clicks (but not mouse wheel events), and crossing component boundaries without change in button status. To track moves and drags, use MouseMotionListener, and to track wheel events, use MouseWheelListener. To watch a subset of these events, use a MouseAdapter.

Since:: 1.1
