Hi,

I created a custom Event which I want to fire in a contex menu action.
I have added a listener in a different place, waiting for the event to
come.

How do I fire the event ?

Hello,

After you define your action listener, in the code where you need to
fire the event, you need to access your action listener and give it an
ActionEvent (java.awt) object:
actionListener.actionPerfromed(new ActionEvent(...));
This will fire your event for your listener.
