Description Jesse Glick 2004-05-20 18:47:16 UTC 
I will change the methods
add/removePathRegistryListener in
GlobalPathRegistry to be
add/removeGlobalPathRegistryListener. Not just
cosmetic: if you don't use the special 4-arg form
of WeakListeners.create, you get a memory leak. I
wouldn't expect most users of the API to notice
this, and in fact it seems that the refactoring
build contained this error; WeakListeners prints a
warning to that effect on console. So will just
change the name to a safer form that should work
correctly with the 3-arg variant of WL.c.
