- Method Detail
  - getEventType
```
EventType<T> getEventType()
```
    Retrieve the event type associated with this groups of listeners.
    
    Returns:
    
    The event type.
  - isEmpty
```
boolean isEmpty()
```
    Are there no listeners registered?
    
    Returns:
    
    true if no listeners are registered; false otherwise.
  - count
```
int count()
```
  - listeners
```
Iterable<T> listeners()
```
  - addDuplicationStrategy
```
void addDuplicationStrategy(DuplicationStrategy strategy)
```
    Mechanism to more finely control the notion of duplicates.
    For example, say you are registering listeners for an extension library. This extension library could define a "marker interface" which indicates listeners related to it and register a strategy that checks against that marker interface.
    
    Parameters:
    
    strategy - The duplication strategy
  - appendListener
```
void appendListener(T listener)
```
  - appendListeners
```
void appendListeners(T... listeners)
```
  - prependListener
```
void prependListener(T listener)
```
  - prependListeners
```
void prependListeners(T... listeners)
```
  - clear
```
void clear()
```
