| 31 | * The listener interface for receiving mouse wheel events on a component. |
| 32 | * (For clicks and other mouse events, use the <code>MouseListener</code>. |
| 33 | * For mouse movement and drags, use the <code>MouseMotionListener</code>.) |
| 34 | * <P> |
| 35 | * The class that is interested in processing a mouse wheel event |
| 36 | * implements this interface (and all the methods it contains). |
| 37 | * <P> |
| 38 | * The listener object created from that class is then registered with a |
| 39 | * component using the component's <code>addMouseWheelListener</code> |
| 40 | * method. A mouse wheel event is generated when the mouse wheel is rotated. |
| 41 | * When a mouse wheel event occurs, that object's <code>mouseWheelMoved</code> |
| 42 | * method is invoked. |
| 43 | * <p> |
| 44 | * For information on how mouse wheel events are dispatched, see |
| 45 | * the class description for {@link MouseWheelEvent}. |
