Description Jesse Glick 2010-07-12 20:19:28 UTC 
If you add a property change listener using WeakListeners.propertyChange, you cannot use addPropertyChangeListener(String,PropertyChangeListener) since WeakListenerImpl.PropertyChange will call removePropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener) and PropertyChangeSupport will not find the listener. There should be a variant method WeakListeners.propertyChange(PropertyChangeListener,Object,String) which lets you specify the property name you are adding the listener under.
