So, if I'm implementing Model interface, should I add such a method=20
(cut and paste from say DefaultTemplateModel), although it is not=20
really part of the interface contract ?

<excerpt> Hi Franck,


 fireModelChanged is an internal method - you should never need to
invoke it. Basically, it is defined in the various model
implementations - when you change data to the model (eg. adding data,
removing data, etc), then the model notifies any listeners "hey,
something has happened - better refresh yourselves"


 So this method is an internal communication mechanism for models to
talk to the components that use them.


 THat help?

 I was just wondering if / where fireModelChanged is defined ?

 Is it defined in an interface ?


 I which to implement TemplateModel, which means also implementing
Model and Contextual, but I cannot see fireModelChanged anywhere.
However, all AbstractxxxModel I see are providing a fireModelChanged()
method.


 I was just wondering what this is for, and why it's not defined in
the interfaces if mandatory.


 Thanks,


 Franck
