/**
 * <em>EventAdapter</em> is the interface that all event adapters must
 * implement in order to work with the automatic event adapter generation
 * model. This interface requires that the adapter implement a method
 * that allows setting the event processor delegated to process the event
 * after the adapter has received the event from the event source. The
 * task of any event adapter is to receive the event and then delegate it
 * to the event processor assigned to it, using either 
 * eventProcessor.processEvent or eventProcessor.processExceptionableEvent.
