Interface java.awt.peer.ActiveEvent

public interface ActiveEvent
An interface for events that know how dispatch themselves. By implementing this interface an event can be placed upon the event queue and this method will be called to dispatch the event. This allows objects that are not components to arrange for behavior to occur on a different thread from the current thread. Peer implementations can use this facility to avoid making upcalls that could potentially cause a deadlock.
