@DOMObjectAttribute @DOMNameAttribute(name="Event") public class Event extends DOMObject
The Event
is used to provide contextual information about an event to the handler processing the event.
Event
is generally passed as the first parameter to an event handler.
More specific context information is passed to event handlers by deriving additional interfaces from Event
which contain information directly relating to the type of event they accompany.
These derived interfaces are also implemented by the object passed to the event listener.

Used to indicate whether or not an event can have its default action prevented.
|
EventTarget |
getCurrentTarget()
Used to indicate the
IEventTarget whose IEventListener s are currently being processed. |

The name of the event (case-insensitive).
|
void |
initEvent(String type,
boolean bubbles,
boolean cancelable)
The
initEvent(String, boolean, boolean) method is used to initialize the value of an Event created through the
IDocumentEvent interface. |
boolean |
isTrusted()
The isTrusted attribute must return the value it was initialized to.
|
void |
preventDefault()
If an event is cancelable, the
preventDefault method is used to signify that the event is to be canceled,
meaning any default action normally taken by the implementation as a result of the event will not occur. |
void |
setCurrentTarget(EventTarget value)
Used to indicate the
IEventTarget whose IEventListener s are currently being processed. |
void |
setEventPhase(int value)
Used to indicate which phase of event flow is currently being evaluated.
|
void |
setTarget(EventTarget value)
Used to indicate the
IEventTarget to which the event was originally dispatched. |
void |
stopImmediatePropagation()
Invoking this method prevents event from reaching any event listeners registered after the current one and when dispatched in a tree also prevents event from reaching any other objects.
|
void |
stopPropagation()
The
stopPropagation method is used prevent further propagation of an event during event flow. |

@DOMNameAttribute(name="NONE") public static final int NONE_PHASE
Events not currently dispatched are in this phase.

@DOMNameAttribute(name="bubbles") public boolean getBubbles()
Used to indicate whether or not an event is a bubbling event. If the event can bubble the value is true, else the value is false.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="cancelable") public boolean getCancelable()
Used to indicate whether or not an event can have its default action prevented. If the default action can be prevented the value is true, else the value is false.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="currentTarget") @DOMNullableAttribute public EventTarget getCurrentTarget()
Used to indicate the IEventTarget
whose IEventListener
s are currently being processed.
This is particularly useful during capturing and bubbling.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="currentTarget") @DOMNullableAttribute public void setCurrentTarget(EventTarget value)
Used to indicate the IEventTarget
whose IEventListener
s are currently being processed.
This is particularly useful during capturing and bubbling.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="eventPhase") public int getEventPhase()
Used to indicate which phase of event flow is currently being evaluated.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="eventPhase") public void setEventPhase(int value)
Used to indicate which phase of event flow is currently being evaluated.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="target") @DOMNullableAttribute public EventTarget getTarget()
Used to indicate the IEventTarget
to which the event was originally dispatched.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="target") @DOMNullableAttribute public void setTarget(EventTarget value)
Used to indicate the IEventTarget
to which the event was originally dispatched.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="timeStamp") @DOMTimeStampAttribute public long getTimeStamp()
Used to specify the time (in milliseconds relative to the epoch) at which the event was created. Due to the fact that some systems may not provide this information the value of timeStamp may be not available for all events. When not available, a value of 0 will be returned. Examples of epoch time are the time of the system start or 0:0:0 UTC 1st January 1970.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="type") public String getType()
The name of the event (case-insensitive). The name must be an XML name.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="defaultPrevented") public boolean getDefaultPrevented()
Returns true if preventDefault() was invoked while the cancelable attribute value is true, and false otherwise.
Value:true
if [default prevented]; otherwise, false
.@DOMNameAttribute(name="isTrusted") public boolean isTrusted()
The isTrusted attribute must return the value it was initialized to. When an event is created the attribute must be initialized to false.
Value:true
if this instance is trusted; otherwise, false
.@DOMNameAttribute(name="initEvent") public void initEvent(String type, boolean bubbles, boolean cancelable)
The initEvent(String, boolean, boolean)
method is used to initialize the value of an Event
created through the
IDocumentEvent
interface.

IEventTarget.dispatchEvent(com.aspose.html.dom.events.Event)
method,
though it may be called multiple times during that phase if necessary.
If called multiple times the final invocation takes precedence.
If called from a subclass of Event interface only the values specified in the initEvent method are modified, all other attributes are left unchanged.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="preventDefault") public void preventDefault()
If an event is cancelable, the preventDefault
method is used to signify that the event is to be canceled,
meaning any default action normally taken by the implementation as a result of the event will not occur.
preventDefault
method is called the event is canceled.
Any default action associated with the event will not occur.
Calling this method for a non-cancelable event has no effect.
Once preventDefault
has been called it will remain in effect throughout the remainder of the event's propagation.
This method may be used during any stage of event flow.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="stopPropagation") public void stopPropagation()
The stopPropagation
method is used prevent further propagation of an event during event flow.
IEventListener
the event will cease propagating through the tree.
The event will complete dispatch to all listeners on the current IEventTarget
before event flow stops.
This method may be used during any stage of event flow.
@DOMNameAttribute(name="stopImmediatePropagation") public void stopImmediatePropagation()
Invoking this method prevents event from reaching any event listeners registered after the current one and when dispatched in a tree also prevents event from reaching any other objects.
