public interface IObjectManager<O extends ISimulationObject,L extends IObjectListener<O>>

An object manager allows a set of simulation objects to be tracked and events fired when they are changed. specific interface exist for all of the simulation objects
This interface is for read only. There are also the IMutableObjectManager and IRequestableObjectManager which permit the modification, addition, and request of objects

Method Summary

void	addListener(L listener, java.util.concurrent.Executor exector) add an event listener
O	get(IIdentifier affId) return the simulation object refered to by the identifier
java.util.Collection<IIdentifier>	getIdentifiers() return all the identifiers of simulation objects that this manager is tracking
java.util.Collection<L>	getListeners() return all the installed listeners
boolean	hasListeners() are there any event listeners?
void	removeListener(L listener) remove said listener
void	waitForChange() wait until something has been added, removed, updated
