  31  * The listener interface for receiving container events.
  32  * The class that is interested in processing a container event
  33  * either implements this interface (and all the methods it
  34  * contains) or extends the abstract <code>ContainerAdapter</code> class
  35  * (overriding only the methods of interest).
  36  * The listener object created from that class is then registered with a
  37  * component using the component's <code>addContainerListener</code>
  38  * method. When the container's contents change because a component
  39  * has been added or removed, the relevant method in the listener object
  40  * is invoked, and the <code>ContainerEvent</code> is passed to it.
  41  * <P>
  42  * Container events are provided for notification purposes ONLY;
  43  * The AWT will automatically handle add and remove operations
  44  * internally so the program works properly regardless of
  45  * whether the program registers a {@code ContainerListener} or not.
