public interface DataEventReceivingObserver

extends DataEventBaseObserver

This interface has to be implemented by observers which want to be notified about new events in the event queue. Implementing this interface causes a notification with the delivery of the data event itself. If all observer are implementing this interface instead of the DataEventReceivingObserver interface, it is assumed that the observer directly consumes and processes the data event immediately during the call and the event is therefore automatically after the delivery to all observers removed from the incoming event queue.
