<br />

*** ** * ** ***

An abstract wrapper class for an`EventListener`class which associates a set of additional parameters with the listener. Subclasses must provide the storage and accessor methods for the additional arguments or parameters.

For example, a bean which supports named properties would have a two argument method signature for adding a`PropertyChangeListener`for a property:  

```
 public void addPropertyChangeListener(String propertyName,
                                       PropertyChangeListener listener)
 
```
If the bean also implemented the zero argument get listener method:  

```
 public PropertyChangeListener[] getPropertyChangeListeners()
 
```
then the array may contain inner`PropertyChangeListeners`which are also`PropertyChangeListenerProxy`objects.

If the calling method is interested in retrieving the named property then it would have to test the element to see if it is a proxy class.
