I’m pretty new to the Java language. A couple of years ago I started looking into it then pursued PHP as my main focus, so I never really bit into the Java scene. I now am able to focus on learning Java and I am learning a lot.
So here is something I have learned:
Creating custom objects with their own custom events.
When I learned how to do this (thanks to this helpful article: http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javaqa/2002-03/01-qa-0315-happyevent.html ), I was very excited. I must have looked like a complete idiot when I shouted for joy in the office and then had to explain my trimuph to all who would hear. My poor wife even got to listen to the story. I’ve spared my children.
I’ll give a brief overview of what I learned from that article. It is from 2002, but I found it very helpful, so check it out if you can.
