org.openhab.core.events.AbstractEventFactory

All Implemented Interfaces:

EventFactory

Direct Known Subclasses:

AddonEventFactory, AutomationEventFactory, ConfigStatusEventFactory, FirmwareEventFactory, InboxEventFactory, ItemEventFactory, LinkEventFactory, SystemEventFactory, ThingEventFactory

@NonNullByDefault
public abstract class AbstractEventFactory
extends Object
implements EventFactory

The AbstractEventFactory defines an abstract implementation of the EventFactory interface. Subclasses must implement the abstract method createEventByType(String, String, String, String) in order to create event instances based on the event type.
