Registering for Unicast Event Notification

The design pattern for registering interest in a unicast event is almost identical to that of a multicast event. It looks like:

public void add<ListenerType>(<ListenerType> listener)
                      throws java.util.TooManyListenersException;
public void remove<ListenerType>(<ListenerType> listener);

The only difference between the unicast pattern and the multicast pattern is the use of the throws clause with the exception java.util.TooManyListenersException. This pattern indicates that the source object supports only one listener for the specified listener type. Invoking the add<ListenerType>() method on a unicast source registers the specified listener only if no other listener is currently registered; if a listener is already registered, java.util.TooManyListenersException is thrown.
