## Uses of HierarchyEvent in java.awt

Methods in java.awt with parameters of type HierarchyEvent
Modifier and Type | Method | Description
--- | --- | ---
`void` | AWTEventMulticaster.`ancestorMoved​(HierarchyEvent e)` | Handles the ancestorMoved event by invoking the ancestorMoved methods on listener-a and listener-b.
`void` | AWTEventMulticaster.`ancestorResized​(HierarchyEvent e)` | Handles the ancestorResized event by invoking the ancestorResized methods on listener-a and listener-b.
`void` | AWTEventMulticaster.`hierarchyChanged​(HierarchyEvent e)` | Handles the hierarchyChanged event by invoking the hierarchyChanged methods on listener-a and listener-b.
`protected void` | Component.`processHierarchyBoundsEvent​(HierarchyEvent e)` | Processes hierarchy bounds events occurring on this component by dispatching them to any registered `HierarchyBoundsListener` objects.
`protected void` | Component.`processHierarchyEvent​(HierarchyEvent e)` | Processes hierarchy events occurring on this component by dispatching them to any registered `HierarchyListener` objects.
