- The JDK 1.02 event model use an event inheritance or bubbling approach.
-
In this model, components are required to handle their own events.
-
If they do not handle a particular event, the event is inherited by (or bubbled up to) the components container and so on, until the highest level container has been tried.
- In the event delegation model, specific objects are designated as event handlers for GUI components.
-
These objects implement event listener interfaces.
-
The event delegation model is more efficient than the event inheritance model because it eliminates the processing required to support the bubbling of unhandled events.
