Removing All Event Listeners

If you have multiple event listeners running, is there any way to remove all of them at once rather than one at a time?
Thanks,
Jeff

Near the end of the article linked below is one approach that someone has used involving an array:

  • Remove default event listeners

    I am trying to use JComponent(JList, JTable) with a different behavior on mouse events. JTable for example selects the cells while dragging. I want to remove all curent listeners, I found removelistener, but I dont find getlisteners (removelistener requires the removed listener ).

    getListeners
    EventListener[] getListeners(Class�listenerType)
    Return an array of all the listeners that were added to this JComponent with addXXXListener(), where XXX is the name of the listenerType argument. For example, to get all of the MouseListeners for the given Component c, one would write:
    MouseListener[] mls = (MouseListener[])(c.getListeners(MouseListener.class))
    If no such listener list exists, then an empty array is returned.

  • Is there a way to clear ALL event listeners, stop all movie clips, etc?

    Is there a syntax for this?
    I have a movie that has 15 frames. Each frame has embedded movie clips within movie clips, tons of animations and event listeners. None is needed except when they are on the stage, on the frame. However, the animations continue even when the frame is left.
    For instance, I have a frame that has a dynamically rendered animation of leaves falling from a tree. When the frame is left, the leaves continue to fall.
    There are many instances of this type of thing happening.
    Ideally, I would love to just be able to clear everything when a new frame is loaded, since none of the animations or event listeners need to carry over from one frame to another.
    Is there a way to do this without the thousands of lines of code it would take to manually remove every single animation and event listener and sound, etc, from the stage?
    Thanks so much!!
    Amber

    you have to manually do that.
    or, you could convert each frame to a swf.  load each swf when needed and, if you're publishing for fp 10+, you can apply unloadAndStop() to kill all streams in the loaded swf and ready those assets for gc.

  • How to remove complex event listeners

    circDraw.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME,function(e:Event){expand(e.target); },false,0,true);
    function expand(obj):void {
         obj.height+=3;
         obj.width+=3;
        How would I add a line here to remove that event?

    The more I look at that code the more I wonder about it.  First I questioned why the function was not called directly in the event listener like it normally would be (since it appears to be utilizing the event.target), then I wondered why an ENTER_FRAME event is being cancelled as soon as it seemingly starts. Is circDraw the obj of the function?  If so, why it isn't all that just reduced to being...
         circDraw.height+=3;
         circDraw.width+=3;
    with no listeners or functions involved.
    Maybe you have an explanation that I can't see from what is shown.

  • All event listeners and models in one file?

    I have one java file for all my event listeners of a programm and one java file for all my models. Is this good?
    I create instances with new AllInOneHandler.MouseHandler() for example.
    Or should I have one file for each event and each model?

    Hi,
    you should have one file for each class or interface - this gives you best control and reusability. Also when you have javadoc-comments in it, big files with many classes in it will become hard to edit.
    When using one file for each class or interface you can import only the needed classes or interfaces instead of importing whole packages - so it is easier to see, what is exactly imported. As so a good structured application has many classes, where each of them is small (and in an own source file), you will have less problems during the evolution of your classes this way.
    If you want to group some classes, why not use sub-packages for this purpose?

  • How do I remove ALL events in Calender?

    OK, so I mainly use Outlook, however I really like Notifications, but I've about 8,000 items in my Calendar that 'synced' with Outlook about 60 times for each event and I'd like to get rid of them all and start anew.
    Anyway to do this? Is there a file somewhere that I can just delete?
    Thanks,
    Clinton

    In my User/Library/Calendars, there is a folder called 6FDA4123-A592-4295-86F4-910C4BEEB0C3.caldav
    That folder seems to have all the Calendar Events in it. Proceed at your own risk.

  • How to block execution of event listeners

    Hi all,
    JDev version : 11.1.1.6
    My requirement is that I want to block all event listeners like ActionListeners, SelectionListeners, DisclosureListeners, RowDisclosure listeners when the screen is opened in readonly mode.
    I could block ActionListeners by disabling command links and command buttons etc.
    But there's no way to block SelectionListeners, DisclosureListeners, RowDisclosure listeners.
    So Is there any common code which can block all listeners?
    Or is there any EventController or something like that which will allow me to control event execution?

    I would have if it was just one screen.
    There are hundreds of screens.
    Anyways, can't I use any javascript to do this? There are some interfaces like EventListeners , classes like EventConsumer etc. Do none of them provide feature to block event listeners?

  • Removing Event Listeners - Are they needed all the time

    My goal is to increase the performance of my project so I would like to know if it is always a good idea to remove event listeners. More specifically, lets say I have a movie with severals scenes and several frames within those scenes. Each one of the frames has an event listener:
    Example:
    Scene 1
    Frame 1 (EventListener)
    Frame 2 (EventListener)
    Frame 3 (EventListener)
    Frame 4 (EventListener)
    Scene 2
    Frame 1 (EventListener)
    Frame 2 (EventListener)
    Frame 3 (EventListener)
    Frame 4 (EventListener)
    Questions:
    Does Flash continue to listen for an event in Scene 1/Frame 1 when the playhead has moved to Scene 1/ Frame 2?
    Or does Flash just listen for the events when the playhead is in a particular frame only?
    Should I remove the event listener once I leave a particular frame (should there be remove event listeners on each frame)?

    Just mentioning, the addEventListener comes with a parameter you can set to true or false called a weak reference. On desktop flash apps it can become time consuming to constantly remove listeners, especially when things drop off the display list frame to frame. You can mark them for automatic garbage collection by using the weak reference property.
    e.g.
    Credits_bnt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, goCredits, false, 0, true); // set weak reference to true (e.g. remove when no references exist anymore automatically)
    Eventually garbage collection will remove that reference automatically when there's nothing left on the display list or in memory to use it.
    However, if this is targeted at mobile, you absolutely want to remove the reference as soon as possible when it's not needed for memory conservation. On a desktop it's not that big of a deal.

  • Remove Event Listeners (at the right time)

    I have a app which loads multiple flv's, I also have a timer
    (digial) which shows how long the movie has been played for. The
    problem is that whenever i load and new move (through the same
    "loadVideos()" function, the timer variables ("lagTime", "endTime")
    are not reset (even though the correct variables are being passed.
    I believe it has something to do with the event listeners which are
    being used to load the movies. How can i clear all the listerner
    before reloading the movies?
    Here is a code snippet:
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks, kglad
    Yes it traces 'endTime' but what happens is that when i play
    the first movie is will display for example ("40,40,40,40" etc...)
    until the video stops playing. If i load another movie it will then
    trace ("40, 20, 40, 20, 40" etc...) so i need to kill the
    listereners and reload the variables.

  • Removing all tab key events

    Hallo all,
    I am having another problem with my JTables. Because our customer doesn't want to get out of JTable via Ctrl+TAB we have customized the TAB Key behaviour and it skips to the following component and it is fine. But if I go to a cell via TAB key (for example cell(3,4)) and if I select another component above via mouse button and go through the table via TAB key it focuses on the cell (4,4) instead of cell(0,0). How can I solve this problem? How can I refresh or remove the key listeners of the Table after I left the table via mouse? Can anyone help me?

    (Untested, and there may be a better approach)
    I would try adding a FocusListener and in the focusLost, something liketable.getSelectionModel().clearSelection();
    table.getColumnModel().getSelectionModel().clearSelection();luck, db
    edit No that didin't do it. Try this one:table.setRowSelectionInterval(0, 0);
    table.setColumnSelectionInterval(0, 0);Edited by: Darryl.Burke

  • Does removeChild remove the object's event listeners?

    Hi
    If you dynamically create a parent movieclip, and dynamically add a color picker to each clip, and add an event listener for each color picker, does a removeChild on the parent movieClip remove event listeners belonging to any of it's children?
    Thanks
    Shaun

    Ahh - thanks Ned
    Is there any software you could recommend that monitors and shows you what or how many event listeners are open, memory consumption etc, to help you to trim the fat from your coding?
    Thanks

  • Removing Event Listeners

    Hello!
    I have a PopUpManager window that fires an event just before closing (not the CloseEvent).
    I am listening for that event and handling it in a function.
    Q: Is it best practice to remove the listener in the function that handles it or calling PopUpManager.removePopUp on that popup automatically does the "cleaning" as well?
    Thank you!

    Removing the eventListeners on a popup window is necessary I believe.
    In your event handling function, you can remove the event listener by event.target.removeEventListener(..., ...). It doesn't matter that your component is handle by the popUpManager, you'll still have a reference to it.
    Example
    In main app:
    var win:myClass = PopUpManager.createPopUp(this, myClass, true) as myClass;
    win.addEventListener("myEvent", myHandler);
    private function myHandler(evt:Event):void
         evt.target.removeEventListener("myEvent", myHandler);
    In custom myClass:
    private function handleSomething(evt:Event):void
                    var ev:Event = new Event("myEvent");
                    dispatchEvent(ev);
                    if (isPopUp)
                        PopUpManager.removePopUp(this as IFlexDisplayObject);
    Does this help?

  • How can I get all the Listeners of an ObservableMap?

    This is my use case:
    A MapListener can be added/removed to an ObservableMap in any node. To remove a listener I need a reference to the listener object to use the removeMapListener(MapListener listener) method. But if the listener was registered in the node A, and it will be removed by the node B how do I get this reference in this node?
    This can be easily solve if there is a way to get a Set of all the active MapListerner that an ObservableMap have.
    Thanks in advance,

    ggarciao.com wrote:
    OK ... this is very interesting. So, what happen if the node that registered the event goes down?
    What I actually need is a way to register clustered-aware events that can be created/removed from any node, and the cluster should guarantee its execution. The use case? a workflow implementation.
    I have several entities with an state field. every time that the state field change, I need to capture that event and do something (like update another system).
    There is a way to do this using listeners in coherence?
    Thanks in advance, and sorry for the delay (vacation) :-)Yes, there are several kind of events and event listeners.
    For your purpose you can take two approaches.
    You can either have a cache listener which listens for all changes in a cache and submits events to some other place.
    Alternatively, you can have a backing map listener which would put events into another cache on the same service and you would syphon the content of this cache to your external system. In the Coherence Incubator there is the Event Distribution pattern and Push Replication pattern projects which provide functionality to achieve this. It has been indicated at on several Coherence SIG meetings that a later Coherence release is going to contain the functionality of these projects out-of-the-box but I believe specific release version and timeline for that release is not confirmed yet, so your safe bet at the moment is the Coherence Incubator (Release 10, I believe is the latest, which you can find at http://coherence.oracle.com/display/INC10/Home ).
