  Interface java.awt.peer.ActiveEvent
</h1>
<dl>
  <dt> public interface <b>ActiveEvent</b>
</dl>
An interface for events that know how dispatch themselves.
 By implementing this interface an event can be placed upon the event 
 queue and this method will be called to dispatch the event.  This allows
 objects that are not components to arrange for behavior to occur on
 a different thread from the current thread. 
 Peer implementations can use this facility to avoid making upcalls 
 that could potentially cause a deadlock.
