public interface MouseListener extends EventListener
Classes which implement this interface provide methods that deal with the events that are generated as mouse buttons are pressed.

After creating an instance of a class that implements this interface it can be added to a control using the addMouseListener method and removed using the removeMouseListener method. When a mouse button is pressed or released, the appropriate method will be invoked.
