Package Summary Overview Summary

### class:AbstractListModel [NONE]
- Type Parameters: `E` - the type of the elements of this model All Implemented Interfaces: Serializable, ListModel<E> Direct Known Subclasses: BasicDirectoryModel, DefaultComboBoxModel, DefaultListModel, MetalFileChooserUI.DirectoryComboBoxModel, MetalFileChooserUI.FilterComboBoxModel
      public abstract class AbstractListModel<E>
      extends Object
      implements ListModel<E>, Serializable
The abstract definition for the data model that provides a `List` with its contents. Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future Swing releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of Swing. As of 1.4, support for long term storage of all JavaBeans™ has been added to the `java.beans` package. Please see `XMLEncoder`. Since: 1.2

### field:listenerList [NONE]
- #### listenerList
      protected EventListenerList listenerList

### constructor:AbstractListModel() [NONE]
- #### AbstractListModel
      public AbstractListModel()

### method:addListDataListener(javax.swing.event.ListDataListener) [NONE]
- #### addListDataListener
      public void addListDataListener(ListDataListener l)
Adds a listener to the list that's notified each time a change to the data model occurs. Specified by: `addListDataListener` in interface `ListModel<E>` Parameters: `l` - the `ListDataListener` to be added

### method:removeListDataListener(javax.swing.event.ListDataListener) [NONE]
- #### removeListDataListener
      public void removeListDataListener(ListDataListener l)
Removes a listener from the list that's notified each time a change to the data model occurs. Specified by: `removeListDataListener` in interface `ListModel<E>` Parameters: `l` - the `ListDataListener` to be removed

### method:getListDataListeners() [NONE]
- #### getListDataListeners
      public ListDataListener[] getListDataListeners()
Returns an array of all the list data listeners registered on this `AbstractListModel`. Returns: all of this model's `ListDataListener`s, or an empty array if no list data listeners are currently registered Since: 1.4 See Also: `addListDataListener(javax.swing.event.ListDataListener)`, `removeListDataListener(javax.swing.event.ListDataListener)`

### method:fireContentsChanged(java.lang.Object, int, int) [NONE]
- #### fireContentsChanged
      protected void fireContentsChanged(Object source,
                                         int index0,
                                         int index1)
`AbstractListModel` subclasses must call this method after one or more elements of the list change. The changed elements are specified by the closed interval index0, index1 -- the endpoints are included. Note that index0 need not be less than or equal to index1. Parameters: `source` - the `ListModel` that changed, typically "this" `index0` - one end of the new interval `index1` - the other end of the new interval See Also: `EventListenerList`, `DefaultListModel`

### method:fireIntervalAdded(java.lang.Object, int, int) [NONE]
- #### fireIntervalAdded
      protected void fireIntervalAdded(Object source,
                                       int index0,
                                       int index1)
`AbstractListModel` subclasses must call this method after one or more elements are added to the model. The new elements are specified by a closed interval index0, index1 -- the enpoints are included. Note that index0 need not be less than or equal to index1. Parameters: `source` - the `ListModel` that changed, typically "this" `index0` - one end of the new interval `index1` - the other end of the new interval See Also: `EventListenerList`, `DefaultListModel`

### method:fireIntervalRemoved(java.lang.Object, int, int) [NONE]
- #### fireIntervalRemoved
      protected void fireIntervalRemoved(Object source,
                                         int index0,
                                         int index1)
`AbstractListModel` subclasses must call this method after one or more elements are removed from the model. `index0` and `index1` are the end points of the interval that's been removed. Note that `index0` need not be less than or equal to `index1`. Parameters: `source` - the `ListModel` that changed, typically "this" `index0` - one end of the removed interval, including `index0` `index1` - the other end of the removed interval, including `index1` See Also: `EventListenerList`, `DefaultListModel`

### method:getListeners(java.lang.Class) [NONE]
- #### getListeners
      public <T extends EventListener> T[] getListeners(Class<T> listenerType)
  Returns an array of all the objects currently registered as `FooListener`s upon this model. `FooListener`s are registered using the `addFooListener` method. You can specify the `listenerType` argument with a class literal, such as `FooListener.class`. For example, you can query a list model `m` for its list data listeners with the following code:
      ListDataListener[] ldls = (ListDataListener[])(m.getListeners(ListDataListener.class));
If no such listeners exist, this method returns an empty array. Type Parameters: `T` - the type of `EventListener` class being requested Parameters: `listenerType` - the type of listeners requested; this parameter should specify an interface that descends from `java.util.EventListener` Returns: an array of all objects registered as `FooListener`s on this model, or an empty array if no such listeners have been added Throws: `ClassCastException` - if `listenerType` doesn't specify a class or interface that implements `java.util.EventListener` Since: 1.3 See Also: `getListDataListeners()`
