Hi there,

Can someone tell me *Why* when an event is fired, the source is
changed?
 public void fireEvent(GwtEvent<?> event) {
    // If it not live we should revive it.
    if (!event.isLive()) {
      event.revive();
    }
    Object oldSource = event.getSource();
    // why....?
    event.setSource(source);
    try {
      firingDepth++;

      registry.fireEvent(event, isReverseOrder);

    } finally {
      firingDepth--;
      if (firingDepth == 0) {
        handleQueuedAddsAndRemoves();
      }
    }
    if (oldSource == null) {
      // This was my event, so I should kill it now that I'm done.
      event.kill();
    } else {
      // Restoring the source for the next handler to use.
      event.setSource(oldSource);
    }
  }

thanks
