java.lang.Objectgnu.xml.dom.DomEvent
"Event" implementation. Events are created (through DocumentEvent interface methods on the document object), and are sent to any target node in the document.
Applications may define application specific event subclasses, but should otherwise use the DocumentTraversal interface to acquire event objects.

static class |
DomEvent.DomMutationEvent
"MutationEvent" implementation. |
static class |
DomEvent.DomUIEvent
"UIEvent" implementation. |
Field Summary |
Fields inherited from interface org.w3c.dom.events.Event |
AT_TARGET, BUBBLING_PHASE, CAPTURING_PHASE |
Constructor Summary | |
DomEvent(String type)
Constructs, but does not initialize, an event. |
Method Summary | |
boolean |
getBubbles()
Returns true if the news of the event bubbles to tree tops (as specified during initialization). |
boolean |
getCancelable()
Returns true if the default handling may be canceled (as specified during initialization). |
EventTarget |
getCurrentTarget()
Returns the target to which events are currently being delivered. |
short |
getEventPhase()
Returns CAPTURING_PHASE, AT_TARGET, or BUBBLING; only meaningful within EventListener.handleEvent |
EventTarget |
getTarget()
Returns event's target; delivery of an event is initiated by a target.dispatchEvent(event) invocation. |
long |
getTimeStamp()
Returns the event's timestamp. |
String |
getType()
Returns the event's type (name) as initialized |
void |
initEvent(String typeArg,
boolean canBubbleArg,
boolean cancelableArg)
Initializes basic event state. |
void |
preventDefault()
Requests that whoever dispatched the event not perform their default processing when event delivery completes. |
void |
stopPropagation()
Requests the event no longer be captured or bubbled; only listeners on the event target will see the event, if they haven't yet been notified. |
String |
toString()
Returns a basic printable description of the event's type, state, and delivery conditions |

public void stopPropagation()
Avoid using this except for application-specific events, for which you the protocol explicitly "blesses" the use of this with some event types. Otherwise, you are likely to break algorithms which depend on event notification either directly or through bubbling or capturing.
Note that this method is not final, specifically to enable enforcing of policies about events always propagating.
