```
static final java.util.concurrent.Executor DIRECT_EXECUTOR
```
    Direct Executor uses sequential execution model
- Method Detail
  - newDefault
```
static EventDispatcher newDefault()
```
    The default implementation of EventDispatcher
    
    Returns:
    
    the default implementation of EventDispatcher
  - parallel
```
static EventDispatcher parallel(java.util.concurrent.Executor executor)
```
    The parallel implementation of EventDispatcher with the specified Executor
    
    Parameters:
    
    executor - Executor
    
    Returns:
    
    the default implementation of EventDispatcher
  - dispatch
```
void dispatch(Event event)
```
    Dispatch a event to the registered event listeners
    
    Parameters:
    
    event - a event
  - getExecutor
```
default java.util.concurrent.Executor getExecutor()
```
    The Executor to dispatch a event
    
    Returns:
    
    default implementation directly invoke Runnable.run() method, rather than multiple-threaded Executor. If the return value is null, the behavior is same as default.
