I suppose:
public class GenericEvent extends GwtEvent<GenericEvent.Handler> {
public interface Handler extends EventHandler {
void handleEvent(GenericEvent event);
}
private final Type<Handler> type;
public GenericEvent(Type<Handler> type) {
this.type = type;
}
@Override
public Type<Handler> getAssociatedType() {
return type;
}
@Override
protected void dispatch(Handler handler) {
handler.handleEvent(this);
}
}
...
public static final Type<GenericEvent.Handler> MY_EVENT_TYPE = new
Type<GenericEvent.Handler>();
...
eventBus.addHandler(MY_EVENT_TYPE, new Handler() {
public void handleEvent(GenericEvent event) {
...
}
});
...
eventBus.fireEvent(new GenericEvent(MY_EVENT_TYPE));
Sure, there's the risk of defining 2 MY_EVENT_TYPE for the same
"logical" event, but not much more than the risk of defining 2
GwtEvent.
