* <em>EventAdapter</em> is the interface that all event adapters must

* 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.
