/**
* A low-level event which indicates that a container's contents
* changed because a component was added or removed.
* <P>
* Container events are provided for notification purposes ONLY;
* The AWT will automatically handle changes to the containers
* contents internally so that the program works properly regardless of
* whether the program is receiving these events or not.
* <P>
* This low-level event is generated by a container object (such as a
* Panel) when a component is added to it or removed from it.
* The event is passed to every <code>ContainerListener</code>
* or <code>ContainerAdapter</code> object which registered to receive such
* events using the component's <code>addContainerListener</code> method.
* (<code>ContainerAdapter</code> objects implement the
* <code>ContainerListener</code> interface.) Each such listener object
* gets this <code>ContainerEvent</code> when the event occurs.
