/**
  * Specifies the methods that a listener interested in namespace changes
  * must implement.
  * Specifically, the listener is interested in {@code NamingEvent}s
  * with event types of {@code OBJECT_ADDED, OBJECT_RENAMED}, or
  * {@code OBJECT_REMOVED}.
  *<p>
  * Such a listener must:
  *<ol>
  *<li>Implement this interface and its methods.
  *<li>Implement {@code NamingListener.namingExceptionThrown()} so that
  * it will be notified of exceptions thrown while attempting to
  * collect information about the events.
  *<li>Register with the source using the source's {@code addNamingListener()}
  *    method.
  *</ol>
  * A listener that wants to be notified of {@code OBJECT_CHANGED} event types
  * should also implement the {@code ObjectChangeListener}
  * interface.
