# Class AWTEventMonitor

java.lang.Object
com.sun.java.accessibility.util.AWTEventMonitor

Direct Known Subclasses:
  `SwingEventMonitor`

public class AWTEventMonitor extends Object

The `AWTEventMonitor` implements a suite of listeners that are conditionally installed on every AWT component instance in the Java Virtual Machine. The events captured by these listeners are made available through a unified set of listeners supported by `AWTEventMonitor`. With this, all the individual events on each of the AWT component instances are funneled into one set of listeners broken down by category (see `EventID` for the categories).

This class depends upon `EventQueueMonitor`, which provides the base level support for capturing the top-level containers as they are created.
