A semantic event which indicates that an item was selected or deselected.
This high-level event is generated by an ItemSelectable object (such as a
List) when an item is selected or de-selected. The event is passed to
every ItemListener
object which registered to receive such
events using the component's addItemListener
method.
The object that implements the ItemListener
interface gets
this ItemEvent
when the event occurs. The listener is
spared the details of processing individual mouse movements and mouse
clicks, and can instead process a "meaningful" (semantic) event like
"item selected" or "item deselected".
