/**
* The listener interface for receiving mouse wheel events on a component.
* (For clicks and other mouse events, use the <code>MouseListener</code>.
* For mouse movement and drags, use the <code>MouseMotionListener</code>.)
* <P>
* The class that is interested in processing a mouse wheel event
* implements this interface (and all the methods it contains).
* <P>
* The listener object created from that class is then registered with a
* component using the component's <code>addMouseWheelListener</code>
* method. A mouse wheel event is generated when the mouse wheel is rotated.
* When a mouse wheel event occurs, that object's <code>mouseWheelMoved</code>
* method is invoked.
* <p>
* For information on how mouse wheel events are dispatched, see
* the class description for {@link MouseWheelEvent}.
