Direct Known Subclasses:

MathCameraListener, MathPickListener, MathTimerListener, MathUpdateListener

public class MathListener

extends java.lang.Object

Superclass for all event listeners of JavaView supplies adapter functionality to invoke Mathematica functions whenever a JavaView listener method is invoked. This class contains the Math-Link and a hashtable for the method/function mapping.

Beside registration of Mathematica functions this class also provides the method perform which invokes the Mathematica function registered in the handler.

This class is provided as a convenience to simplify the writing of listeners. Subclasses do not implement the registration methods invoked by Mathematica to register handler commands and establishing of the kernel link.

Version:

19.12.00, 1.15 revised (kp) Replace deprecated API Install.getStdLink() with StdLink.getLink().
22.11.00, 1.10 revised (kp) Adjust to J/Link 1.1.
27.07.00, 1.00 created (kp)Install.getStdLink()
