+/**
+ * Implementers of <code>Listener</code> provide a simple
+ * <code>handleEvent()</code> method that is used internally
+ * by DWT to dispatch events.
+ * <p>
+ * After creating an instance of a class that implements this interface
+ * it can be added to a widget using the
+ * <code>addListener(int eventType, Listener handler)</code> method and
+ * removed using the
+ * <code>removeListener (int eventType, Listener handler)</code> method.
+ * When the specified event occurs, <code>handleEvent(...)</code> will
+ * be sent to the instance.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Classes which implement this interface are described within DWT as
+ * providing the <em>untyped listener</em> API. Typically, widgets will
+ * also provide a higher-level <em>typed listener</em> API, that is based
+ * on the standard <code>java.util.EventListener</code> pattern.
+ * </p>
+ * <p>
+ * Note that, since all internal DWT event dispatching is based on untyped
+ * listeners, it is simple to build subsets of DWT for use on memory
+ * constrained, small footprint devices, by removing the classes and
+ * methods which implement the typed listener API.
+ * </p>
