/**
 * jEdit's global event notification mechanism.

* * Plugins register with the EditBus to receive messages reflecting * changes in the application's state, including changes in buffers, * views and edit panes, changes in the set of properties maintained * by the application, and the closing of the application.

* * The EditBus maintains a list of objects that have requested to receive * messages. When a message is sent using this class, all registered * components receive it in turn. Classes for objects that subscribe to * the EditBus must implement the {@link EBComponent} interface, which * defines the single method {@link EBComponent#handleMessage(EBMessage)}.

* * A plugin core class that extends the * {@link EBPlugin} abstract class (and whose name ends with * Plugin for identification purposes) will automatically be * added to the EditBus during jEdit's startup routine. Any other * class - for example, a dockable window that needs to receive * notification of buffer changes - must perform its own registration by calling * {@link #addToBus(EBComponent)} during its initialization. * A convenient place to register in a class derived from JComponent * would be in an implementation of the JComponent method * addNotify().

* * Message types sent by jEdit can be found in the * {@link org.gjt.sp.jedit.msg} package.

* * Plugins can also send their own messages - any object can send a message to * the EditBus by calling the static method {@link #send(EBMessage)}. * Most plugins, however, only concern themselves with receiving, not * sending, messages. * * @see org.gjt.sp.jedit.EBComponent * @see org.gjt.sp.jedit.EBMessage * * @author Slava Pestov * @author John Gellene (API documentation) * @version $Id: EditBus.java,v 1.11 2003/05/01 02:21:26 spestov Exp $ * * @since jEdit 2.2pre6 */ public class EditBus { //{{{ addToBus() method /** * Adds a component to the bus.
