Class SystemEventManager

java.lang.Object

com.partnersoft.system.SystemEventManager

public class SystemEventManager
extends java.lang.Object

Propagates system-level events for processing by modules and other means.

These events are not the standard tightly-coupled style of java.util.EventObject, but instead a looser, bus-style method. Events are injected into the manager, which then distributes them to each module. It is up to the modules to do anything about the event, generally by running a set of scripts.

You don't generally need to instantiate this class, instead grab the one returned by SystemServices.eventManager().
