virtual void handleEvent (payloadmap payload, EventListener *responder=NULL)=0
 

Detailed Description

EventListener is a pure virtual class outlining a class that handles specific events.

The idea behind EventListener being pure virtual means that any object can create its own subclass of EventListenter, providing handling for their own specific events. This allows the EventListener to handle its parent's member variables and functions, while providing a simple layer of inheritence for the EventListener.
