/**
 * A low-level event which indicates that a Component has gained or lost the
 * input focus. This low-level event is generated by a Component (such as a
 * TextField). The event is passed to every {@code FocusListener} or
 * {@code FocusAdapter} object which registered to receive such events
 * using the Component's {@code addFocusListener} method.
 * ({@code FocusAdapter} objects implement the {@code FocusListener}
 * interface.) Each such listener object gets this {@code FocusEvent} when
 * the event occurs.
 * <p>
 * There are two levels of focus events: permanent and temporary. Permanent
 * focus change events occur when focus is directly moved from one Component to
 * another, such as through a call to requestFocus() or as the user uses the
 * TAB key to traverse Components. Temporary focus change events occur when
 * focus is temporarily lost for a Component as the indirect result of another
 * operation, such as Window deactivation or a Scrollbar drag. In this case,
 * the original focus state will automatically be restored once that operation
 * is finished, or, for the case of Window deactivation, when the Window is
 * reactivated. Both permanent and temporary focus events are delivered using
 * the FOCUS_GAINED and FOCUS_LOST event ids; the level may be distinguished in
 * the event using the isTemporary() method.
 * <p>
 * Every {@code FocusEvent} records its cause - the reason why this event was
 * generated. The cause is assigned during the focus event creation and may be
 * retrieved by calling {@link #getCause}.
 * <p>
 * An unspecified behavior will be caused if the {@code id} parameter
 * of any particular {@code FocusEvent} instance is not
 * in the range from {@code FOCUS_FIRST} to {@code FOCUS_LAST}.
