Provides support for event notification when accessing naming and
directory services.
<p>
This package defines the event notification operations of the Java Naming
and Directory Interface™ (JNDI).
JNDI provides naming and directory functionality to applications
written in the Java programming language. It is designed to be
independent of any specific naming or directory service
implementation. Thus a variety of services--new, emerging, and
already deployed ones--can be accessed in a common way.
<h2>Naming Events</h2>
<p>
This package defines a <code>NamingEvent</code> class to represent an event
that is generated by a naming/directory service.
It also defines subinterfaces of <code>Context</code> and <code>DirContext</code>,
called <code>EventContext</code> and <code>EventDirContext</code>,
through which applications can register their interest in events
fired by the context.
<p>
<code>NamingEvent</code> represents an event that occurs in a
naming or directory service. There are two categories of naming events:
<ul>
<li>Those that affect the namespace (add/remove/rename an object)
<li>Those that affect the objects' contents.
</ul>
Each category of events is handled by a corresponding listener:
<code>NamespaceChangeListener</code>, <code>ObjectChangeListener</code>.
<p>
An application, for example, can register its interest in changes to
objects in a context as follows:
<blockquote>
<pre>
EventContext src =
(EventContext)(new InitialContext()).lookup("o=wiz,c=us");
src.addNamingListener("ou=users", EventContext.ONELEVEL_SCOPE,
new ChangeHandler());
...
class ChangeHandler implements ObjectChangeListener {
public void objectChanged(NamingEvent evt) {
System.out.println(evt.getNewBinding());
}
public void namingExceptionThrown(NamingExceptionEvent evt) {
System.out.println(evt.getException());
}
}
</pre>
</blockquote>

<h3>Threading Issues</h3>
When an event is dispatched to a listener, the listener method (such
as <code>objectChanged()</code>) may be executed in a thread other than the
one in which the call to <code>addNamingListener()</code> was executed.
The choice of which thread to use is made by the service provider.
When an event is dispatched to multiple listeners, the service provider
may choose (and is generally encouraged) to execute the listener methods
concurrently in separate threads.
<p>
When a listener instance invokes <code>NamingEvent.getEventContext()</code>,
it must take into account the possibility that other threads will be
working with that context concurrently. Likewise, when a listener is
registered via <code>addNamingListener()</code>, the registering thread
must take into account the likely possibility that the service provider
will later invoke the listeners in newly-created threads. As <code>Context</code>
instances are not guaranteed to be thread-safe in general, all context
operations must be synchronized as needed.
<h3>Exception Handling</h3>
When a listener registers for events with a context, the context might
need to do some internal processing in order to collect information
required to generate the events. The context, for example, might need
to make a request to the server to register interest in changes
on the server that will eventually be translated into events.
