/**
 * This class is a thread safe list that is designed for storing lists of listeners.
 * The implementation is optimized for minimal memory footprint, frequent reads 
 * and infrequent writes.  Modification of the list is synchronized and relatively
 * expensive, while accessing the listeners is very fast.  Readers are given access 
 * to the underlying array data structure for reading, with the trust that they will 
 * not modify the underlying array.
 * <p>
 * <a name="same">A listener list handles the <i>same</i> listener being added 
 * multiple times, and tolerates removal of listeners that are the same as other
 * listeners in the list.  For this purpose, listeners can be compared with each other 
 * using either equality or identity, as specified in the list constructor.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Use the <code>getListeners</code> method when notifying listeners. The recommended
 * code sequence for notifying all registered listeners of say,
 * <code>FooListener.eventHappened</code>, is:
 * 
 * <pre>
 * Object[] listeners = myListenerList.getListeners();
 * for (int i = 0; i &lt; listeners.length; ++i) {
 * 	((FooListener) listeners[i]).eventHappened(event);
 * }
 * </pre>
 * 
 * </p><p>
 * This class can be used without OSGi running.
 * </p>
