IEventDispatcher (Wicket Core 9.2.0 API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

FrameworkSettings

Functional Interface:

This is a functional interface and can therefore be used as the assignment target for a lambda expression or method reference.
```
@FunctionalInterface
public interface IEventDispatcher
```
Delivers an event to a component. Developers can implement and register their dispatchers in FrameworkSettings to create custom strategies for how events get delivered to components

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method	Description
`void`	`dispatchEvent(Object sink, IEvent<?> event, Component component)`	Dispatches the even to the target component

- Method Detail
  - dispatchEvent
```
void dispatchEvent(Object sink,
                   IEvent<?> event,
                   Component component)
```
    Dispatches the even to the target component
    
    Parameters:
    
    sink - the sink for the event. Sinks usually implement IEventSink or IComponentAwareEventSink. See the component parameter described below.
    
    event -
    
    component - provides context to the sink. Some sinks are owned by the component, eg Behaviors, and thus it is useful for them to have a reference to their owning component. If this method is not null the dispatcher should try to look for an alternative sink method which takes a component reference as an additional parameter, one such implementation is IComponentAwareEventSink.
