Consider adding a parameter to the event that identifies the event source. For example: eventBus.fireEvent(new MyEvent(MyIndentifier myIndentifier)); Perhaps MyIdentifier is an enum. Then, in the event class: public void MyEvent(MyIdentifier myIdentifier) { this.myIdentifier = myIdentifier; } public MyIdentifier getMyIdentifier() { return myIdentifier; } Then, in the event handler: switch e.getMyIdentifier { case MYIDENTIFIER1: break; .... } Also, see the current thread subject "How to simplify your GwtEvent classes and have fun doing it!" for another implementation technique. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Web Toolkit" group.
