/**
 * The <code>LineEvent</code> class encapsulates information that a line
 * sends its listeners whenever the line opens, closes, starts, or stops.
 * Each of these four state changes is represented by a corresponding
 * type of event.  A listener receives the event as a parameter to its
 * {@link LineListener#update update} method.  By querying the event,
 * the listener can learn the type of event, the line responsible for
 * the event, and how much data the line had processed when the event occurred.
 *
 * <p>Although this class implements Serializable, attempts to
 * serialize a <code>LineEvent</code> object will fail.
