The more I look at this class the less I like it and the more I think we should just ignore it, maybe even deprecate it. First of all, as far as I can tell, despite the name it has nothing to do with event listeners. It simply allows one to sequentially invoke the same method on each a list of objects of the same type. There are other ways to do that, including lambdas and executors. Executors use futures to manage exceptions. Lambdas pretend they don't happen (and are broken by design as a consequence). Do we really need a third way to address this problem? Is there any use case here that can't be handled by a lambda or a single threaded executor? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
