## 20.24 java.awt.event.MouseMotionListener (JDK 1.1)

###

This interface defines the methods that an object must implement to "listen" for mouse motion events on AWT components. When a `MouseEvent` occurs involving a mouse drag or mouse motion with no buttons down, an AWT component notifies its registered `MouseMotionListener` objects by invoking one of their methods.

An easy way to implement this is by subclassing the `MouseMotionAdapter` class.

    public abstract interface MouseMotionListener extends EventListener {
        // Public Instance Methods
                public abstract void mouseDragged(MouseEvent e);
                public abstract void mouseMoved(MouseEvent e);
    }

### Implemented By:

`AWTEventMulticaster, MouseMotionAdapter`

### Passed To:

`AWTEventMulticaster.add(), AWTEventMulticaster.remove(), Component.addMouseMotionListener(), Component.removeMouseMotionListener()`

### Returned By:

`AWTEventMulticaster.add(), AWTEventMulticaster.remove()`
