| /** |
| * The listener interface for receiving "interesting" mouse events |
| * (press, release, click, enter, and exit) on a component. |
| * (To track mouse moves and mouse drags, use the |
| * {@code MouseMotionListener}.) |
| * <P> |
| * The class that is interested in processing a mouse event |
| * either implements this interface (and all the methods it |
| * contains) or extends the abstract {@code MouseAdapter} class |
| * (overriding only the methods of interest). |
| * <P> |
| * The listener object created from that class is then registered with a |
| * component using the component's {@code addMouseListener} |
| * method. A mouse event is generated when the mouse is pressed, released |
| * clicked (pressed and released). A mouse event is also generated when |
| * the mouse cursor enters or leaves a component. When a mouse event |
| * occurs, the relevant method in the listener object is invoked, and |
| * the {@code MouseEvent} is passed to it. |
