    Methods in java.awt that return ContainerListener
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `static ContainerListener` | AWTEventMulticaster.`add(ContainerListener a, ContainerListener b)` Adds container-listener-a with container-listener-b and returns the resulting multicast listener.
    `ContainerListener[]` | Container.`getContainerListeners()` Returns an array of all the container listeners registered on this container.
    `static ContainerListener` | AWTEventMulticaster.`remove(ContainerListener l, ContainerListener oldl)` Removes the old container-listener from container-listener-l and returns the resulting multicast listener.

    Methods in java.awt with parameters of type ContainerListener
    Modifier and Type | Method and Description
    --- | ---
    `static ContainerListener` | AWTEventMulticaster.`add(ContainerListener a, ContainerListener b)` Adds container-listener-a with container-listener-b and returns the resulting multicast listener.
    `void` | Container.`addContainerListener(ContainerListener l)` Adds the specified container listener to receive container events from this container.
    `static ContainerListener` | AWTEventMulticaster.`remove(ContainerListener l, ContainerListener oldl)` Removes the old container-listener from container-listener-l and returns the resulting multicast listener.
    `void` | Container.`removeContainerListener(ContainerListener l)` Removes the specified container listener so it no longer receives container events from this container.
