Interface ExternalToolListener

All Superinterfaces:

java.util.EventListener

public interface ExternalToolListener

extends java.util.EventListener

Listener interface for clients that will be notified when an external tool is about to start executing, and when is has been launched.

Note that there are no guarantees about the thread on which these events are sent. If you perform operations on Swing components as a result of receiving an event from this interface, you should serialize those operations on the event dispatch thread using EventQueue.invokeLater(Runnable).

Since:

11.1.1.0.1
