JDK1.4 doc for method java.awt.event.ActionEvent(Object source, int
id, String command) does not specify expected behaviour if 'source' ==
null and/or 'command' == null.
The same story with
ActionEvent(java.lang.Object,int,java.lang.String,int) and
ActionEvent(java.lang.Object,int,java.lang.String,long,int).

------------
Currently javadoc says:
public ActionEvent(Object source,
                   int id,
                   String command)

Constructs an ActionEvent object.

Note that passing in an invalid id results in unspecified behavior.

Parameters:
source - the object that originated the event
id - an integer that identifies the event
command - a string that may specify a command
  (possibly one of several) associated with the event

I added doc to all 31 Event constructors about the IAE. Reviewed by Eric. Approved by CCC. Fixed for tiger. ###@###.### 2003-09-07 =================================================================== According to CCC I've found following disperancies: HierarchyEvent (3 constructors) in fact 2 constructors InputEvent (1 constructor) in fact there are no constructors InvocationEvent (2 constructors) in fact 3 constructors KeyEvent (2 constructors) in fact 3 constructors Classes InputMethodEvent, KeyEvent and MouseEvent have javadoc description with recurring throws IAE declaration. Class KeyEvent has constructors without javadoc description at all. Concerning all constructors there are following text: This method throws as IllegalArgumentException..... In fact a constructor is not a method. So the sentence above should be fixed to This constructor throws... ###@###.### 2004-09-15d
