Project object not fully functional in BuildEvents





------- Additional Comments From bob.kerns@firepond.com  2001-12-31 03:14 -------
It seems the BuildListener interface was designed to be unextensible. My 
suggestion: Switch to a publish/subscribe model, with a compatibility adaptor.

1) Create an ExtendedBuildListener interface.
2) Give ExtendedBuildListener one method: buildEvent(BuildEvent)
3) Make BuildEvent abstract.
4) Create concrete BuildEvent classes for each type of event to deliver.
5) Add Project.addBuildListener(Class, ExtendedBuildListener) to register for 
specific events (or categories of events).
6) Deliver these events *instead*.
7) Redo Project.addBuildListener(BuildListener) to register for the current set 
of events, using adaptors.
8) Add new events as needed, without breaking existing code.
