Classes in javax.faces.event used by javax.faces.application

Class and Description
ActionListener A listener interface for receiving ActionEvents.
SystemEvent SystemEvent is the base class for non-application specific events that can be fired by arbitrary objects.
SystemEventListener By implementing this class, an object indicates that it is a listener for one or more kinds of SystemEvents.

Classes in javax.faces.event used by javax.faces.component

Class and Description
AbortProcessingException An exception that may be thrown by event listeners to terminate the processing of the current event.
ActionListener A listener interface for receiving ActionEvents.
ComponentSystemEvent ComponentSystemEvent is the base class for SystemEvents that are specific to a UIComponent instance.
ComponentSystemEventListener Implementors of this class do not need an isListenerForSource() method because they are only installed on specific component instances, therefore the isListenerForSource() method is implicit.

FacesListener A generic base interface for event listeners for various types of FacesEvents.
PhaseId Typesafe enumeration of the legal values that may be returned by the getPhaseId() method of the FacesEvent interface.
PhaseListener An interface implemented by objects that wish to be notified at the beginning and ending of processing for each standard phase of the request processing lifecycle.
SystemEvent SystemEvent is the base class for non-application specific events that can be fired by arbitrary objects.
SystemEventListener By implementing this class, an object indicates that it is a listener for one or more kinds of SystemEvents.
SystemEventListenerHolder Classes that implement this interface agree to maintain a list of SystemEventListener instances for each kind of SystemEvent they can generate.
ValueChangeListener A listener interface for receiving ValueChangeEvents.

Classes in javax.faces.event used by javax.faces.event

Class and Description
AbortProcessingException An exception that may be thrown by event listeners to terminate the processing of the current event.
ActionEvent An ActionEvent represents the activation of a user interface component (such as a UICommand).
